Your whole house moves with you

Customers, purchase history, lots and images, your website pages and your old links all come across, and your sales carry on while they do.

One person from our side runs the move with you, from the first call to the day your domain switches, and stays until your first sales on the new platform are closed and settled.

Moved with us

Two houses, everything with them

Both came from another auction platform. Both now run their sales here, on their own domains.

The records your house has built up over the years move across, not only what is for sale this week.

The move, done with you

One person, start to finish

One person from our side owns your move and runs it with you. You keep running your sales while we do the moving, and we stay until your first sales on the new platform are closed and settled.

1
The first call
We go through your data, your formats and your paperwork with you, and agree a switch date that falls between two of your sales.
2
Trial runs
The import is rehearsed in runs that write nothing, while we rebuild your website pages and the settlement statement your consignors know.
3
Switch day
A last copy of your data comes across, the counts are checked again and your domain moves to your new storefront. An announcement bar tells your customers what is new, each in their own language.
4
Your first sales
We stay with you through your first sales on the new platform, until they are closed and settled.

Your customers keep their accounts, your consignors keep their familiar paperwork, and your calendar doesn't skip a sale.

How we work

Every record counted

Moving a house is exacting work, and we do it the same way every time.

Rehearsed first

Every step runs first as a trial run that writes nothing.

Counted before and after

Record counts are checked against your old system before the move and again after it.

Backed up

A backup is taken before anything is written.

Nothing overwritten

Records that already exist are never overwritten.

Between sales

The switch is scheduled between your sales, never during a closing.

A way back

Your domain can point back to your old system within minutes, if it is ever needed.

Coming from Bidspirit

Conventions your bidders already know

Max bids settle one increment above the runner-up, the same convention Bidspirit bidders expect. Soft-close protects every late bid, so switching houses don't have to re-educate their audience.

Whitelabel means the storefront is yours alone: your domain, your brand, your bidder list. Flat fee, 0% of hammer.

Tell us what you're running today

We'll map your data, your formats and your paperwork to a cutover plan, before you commit to anything.
