Texting is BY far the better way to inform someone about a bid. Plus, adding the text feature also means that this can be easily used on event day in person for a silent auction. PLEASE make this feature available.

I would like to be able to notify my bidders automatically by SMS when they are outbid.

I AGREE! PLEASE MAKE THIS FEATURE!!

People now a days really aren’t fans of emails. Being notified via text would be so much better and have a more positive reaction from our donors

With everyone utilizing their cell phones for communications, the ability to participate in auctions via text messages is paramount. We are going to give Zeffy (via emails) a try, but I already know what the feedback will be. And I hope it doesn't hinder our bidders from keeping up with the bidding via email, which could affect our fundraising for this. Please make this a priority. We have another event coming up in a few months, with a silent auction.

My auction bids doubled the first year I used outbid text notifications with 32auctions. I love that Zeffy is free, but I am fairly sure my bids would drop more than I pay in fees to 32auctions without the text notifications.

Text notifications are much quicker to receive. I am trying our Silent Auction with Zeffy but may go back to 32auctions depending on feedback I get this year.

I would love for our bidders to be be notified via text. This would be much simpler and more convenient for our guests. As we are considering an online auction for the first time in many years, I'm concerned the limited functionality will be a turn off for our guests.

We are considering switching to Zeffy and utilizing the auction feature. We hold auctions at our events and with the amount of people who are bidding in the room, text updates regarding bids are much more convenient than email updates. This is a big deciding factor for us!

This would be a huge addition. I would imagine it would double our bidding
