There may be times throughout your auction experience when you’ll want to monitor activity on a certain item to see who’s bidding on it. MemberHub makes it easy to see a list of who bid on each item, whose bid is in the winning place for a specific item, and all of the participants who have bid on an item. This information can be accessed conveniently by running specific reports from your experience. Here are a few ways you can use these findings to boost the success of your auction:

  • Send an email to winning bidders to remind them of the upcoming end date.
  • Send emails to individuals who have been outbid to let them know there’s still time to increase their bid and regain a winning position.
  • Find out which items are the most popular, have the most bids, or have the least number of bids. Learn more about how to promote individual items on your experience here. 

Follow the steps below to access this valuable information for your auction. 

How to view a list of bids

  1. Go to Experiences in the left menu.
  2. If you have chosen a list view, click on the title of your experience. If you have chosen a grid view, click on the experience image.
  3. Click View Auction Bids*.
  4. Under the Bids* tab, you’ll find a list of all bids your auction has received. This is useful for determining which items have the least amount of activity and could use a promotional boost to gather more bids.

Good to know

  • On the bids* tab, you can use the dropdown menu in the upper right to see bids for all items. You can also follow this process to see bids for a specific item. 
  • You can also export a report of your bids and auction items using the export bids* or export items* buttons in the lower left of the table. These will provide a detailed report of all items and bids on your auction, as well as their current status.

*Note: Terminology on these buttons may be different according to the terminology that you’ve chosen for your experience.
