Auction Software that Grows with You

When new clients come to us, it's often because their business has outgrown their old auction eCommerce software. They need to expand with customizability that just isn't there in their current system. So they come to us to upgrade their system and get them unstuck from catering their workflows to an auction platform that can no longer support them.

Provide an Experience Customers Will Want to Come Back to

Convenience and ease of use are vital attributes of a successful customer experience. Knowing this, we made self-service a core part of our auction eCommerce platform solution.

Make Things Easy with Self Service

If customers can self-serve on your auction eCommerce platform, they'll be able to go in, do what they want, and be done—rather than having to go through a whole process with someone on the phone. Not only that, but having an intuitive interface and navigation system can make your platform a lot easier to use.

Automate Your Workflows

For an auction eCommerce platform, automated workflows are essential to everything working smoothly and without too much overhead cost. Automated workflows can be for a variety of things, including audits, analytics, and much more.

Keep Users Engaged

Allowing users to set notifications enables them to stay engaged with the online auctions even while they go about their busy lives. For instance, they might want to be notified if they're outbid, or if the bidding period is closing. Having an intuitive notification system benefits you and your users.

Architecture You Can Rely On

If you were building a house, you’d want to make sure the structure was sound and made according to your specifications. Why wouldn’t you do the same for your eCommerce software? We develop robust, secure, and customizable software so that you have everything you need and can rest assured that the house won’t collapse around you, even in the event of an earthquake.

Platform Interaction
Notifications

Allow auction platform users to set up notifications for auction events (like becoming outbid) to increase interaction with the site. Also provide notifications for back-in-stock items, inaction for a set period of time, low funds, messages from the seller, fulfillment, and return/refund request approvals.

Truly Omnichannel

Get the auction eCommerce platform you can use seamlessly on any device, at any event, at any time. Increase user engagement and conversions by letting them have a truly omnichannel experience.

Comprehensive Dashboard

Users have their own self-help dashboard that provides everything they need to track, manage, and pay for orders. The user dashboard is also where they access their active and previous auctions and bids, watch lists, returns, invoices, analytic reports, and more.

Watch Lists

Buyers can use watch lists to keep track of what they want to bid on, whether they're watching dozens of items from one seller or items from multiple sellers. Watch lists can be kept on the dashboard or one click away for easy access.

Address Books

Ensure items are delivered to the right address, let users find auctions near their location, and make it easy to add or change addresses. You can also verify addresses and calculate taxes for different locations.

Self-Service Reports

Customers can generate their own closed reports so they can report taxes and reconcile spending. Reports give a rundown of products won and the subtotal, taxes and shipping paid, payment method, and date. Let users download or automatically send simple and complex reports.

Invoicing

Our auction eCommerce solution has invoicing built in. Get downloadable PDFs, send customers notifications to pay their invoices, and enable customers to pay invoices via the online portal. Quickly create invoices with customizable templates and automate invoices for recurring payments.

Sales Tax Calculations

Clarity Ventures is a certified Avalara partner so you can integrate their sales tax tool out of the box. Calculate taxes for different jurisdictions, and for international auctions, accurately and promptly calculate customs and duties. Track, manage, and receive regular reports so you never have to worry about incurring fees.

Split Shipments

Want to ship products in an order to different locations? Clarity Auction eCommerce Solution gives you that right out of the box, so you can get every item to the exact location it needs to go.

Split Payments

Our auction eCommerce platform solution has split payment capability, allowing users to pay with different payment sources on the same order, such as two credit cards or a credit card and a gift card.

LTL Shipping

We’ve integrated hundreds of less-than-truckload (LTL) and international shipping carriers. Whatever your shipping needs are, we've got you covered.

Intermodal Shipping

Ship auction items by train, boat, ground, LTL containers—or all of the above. Connect with various shipping providers through the auction eCommerce software and turn on key functions for sellers to fulfill their orders.

Reserve Amounts

You can set up reserve amounts, which is especially helpful for large bids, so that those funds are locked until the bidder has paid the auctioneer. This helps prevent people from bidding frivolously and not being able to pay at the close of the auction.

Escrow Accounts

Our auction eCommerce solution also provides an escrow account, so that the bidder's payment is kept safe until the auction item is received by the bidder. Once they confirm they have it and it's in good condition, the payment is transferred to the seller's account.

Longer Payment Plans

You can enable payment plans so that bidders can choose to pay all at once or over 6 months, 12 months, 24 months, etc. There can be a fee or interest for paying over time. You can also connect to payment processors or go through our Payment Hub.

Memberships & Subscriptions

With Clarity Auction eCommerce, you can allow users to join memberships, such as one to your auction eCommerce platform. Members typically receive benefits and pay a subscription fee based on their membership level, which provides your business with a steady source of income.

Headless eCommerce

We use modular auction eCommerce software so that the API framework can be used on any website—that means we can embed auction eCommerce components into any CMS, static website, or SaaS-based system (such as WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, DNN, Umbraco CMS, etc.).

Verification & Security

With our auction eCommerce platform, you can trust but verify with escrow. We also have state-of-the-art platform security, including ongoing security support, monitoring, upgrades, PEN tests, and audits. Protect user privacy and reassure them their data is safe.

SEO for Products & Categories

The admin UI provides a single-click option to generate both product and category sitemap.xml files for registration with Google. There’s also an out-of-the-box WYSIWYG editor for creating dynamic and robust category landing pages.

Organic & Paid Ads

Up your organic marketing game by utilizing our built-in SEO features and CRO expertise. Generate enticing ads for popular sites like Google, Bing, and Yahoo, and sponsor products from auctioneers with high potential. These are just some of the things you can do with our marketing capabilities to increase traffic and conversions.

Advanced Analytics

Clarity Auction eCommerce provides an integration with the new Google Advanced eCommerce Analytics (GTM/GA Enhanced eCommerce). You don't need a custom auction website to make it quick and easy for you to track your eCommerce performance.
