FAQ
Questions houses ask before they switch.
Most houses go live in four to six weeks, including brand configuration, catalogue import, and payment onboarding.
Yes. The site runs on your own domain with your colours, typography, and logo — there's no Auction Rabbit chrome anywhere.
Both. Live auctions use a real-time bidding engine with sub-second latency, and timed sales use the same catalogue and buyer accounts.
Commission and phone bids are entered by your team in the auctioneer console and compete fairly with online bids in the same ledger.
Buyer's premium tiers, margin scheme, and regional tax rules are configurable per sale and applied automatically on invoices.
“We replaced a patchwork of third-party bidding platforms with one branded site. Our buyers finally feel like they're on our site, not someone else's.”
