Vehicle Auction Software
The Auction Marketer platform has a specific set of modules for the sale of vehicles, whether classic, contemporary, trade, fleet or agricultural.
If you are looking for a replacement for the Kingfisher auction platform we would recommend a call and demo with one of our sales consultants to see what the Auction Marketer Vehicle Platform can offer.

Vehicle Auction Technology
Our vehicle auction technology is cloud based, meaning that you can consign and describe vehicles on the move whilst in the yard, or even at a client location.
Available as both a standalone back office with Swagger API to connect to established platforms or as a fully featured back office with live AV and timed online only bidding options, including 'buy it now' and 'make offer' functionality. It also ships with optional Apple and Android Apps with the full end user bidding and my account experience.
Our back office gives you a single view of the client along with lifetime values and a full audit of buying and selling activities. Generating the pre and post sale paperwork is really easy and pre sale contracts can be signed digitally. You can record payments and payouts and link these directly to well known finance packages such as Xero or Sage.
Consigning vehicles is made easy through our integration with number plate look up and HPI checking software. HPI reports can be saved against each vehicle, window stickers created and we have a robust pass out module.
Adding media is super easy, you can capture images and video directly using a mobile device whilst on the move, or you can drag, drop and reorder images with ease. Adding documentation is simple too, and unsold lots can be re-entered into future auctions with a full audit of their previous performance.
Our user registration journeys allow you to differentiate between private and trade bidders, securely process and store debit/credit card tokens for the settlement of bidder deposits, and we have a pay by link open banking solution with Stripe that makes the payment and payout process far simpler and more cost efficient.

Homepage Takeover
Vehicle auctions are events and experiences in their own right. We worked with Silverstone Auctions to deliver the world's first livestream auction takeover on their home page with a new release of our BidstreamTM live auction technology.
The BidstreamTM 'Homepage Takeover' developed by Auction Marketer drives web visitors into live auctions faster, delivers more new registrants, reduces confusion for existing users, cuts down on phone enquiries on auction day and ultimately makes streamed auctions far more visible to everyone. A simple idea that really works... Now available on both your home page and the auction catalogue pages.
Numberplate Look-up
Researching and cataloguing vehicle data is made instant with the DVLA approved numberplate look-up endpoint that we have developed with UK Vehicle Data Ltd.
Make consigning vehicles into your platform faster and easier, especially for user driven valuation requests. Simply add the vehicle numberplate, check that it returns the correct vehicle, add the mileage and any condition notes with details, run the optional HPI check and you have a vehicle listing ready to have a contract generated.
HPI Vehicle Checker
Auction Marketer has an API linked to Solera for genuine HPI checks.
Stolen car checks - Our optional tools will return any history involving the theft/recovery or write off relating to a vehicle.
HPI Checker can be configured to return multiple sets of data on vehicles including history, finance, valuation, MOT and Tax checks plus TCO data.
Valuations
If you choose to use the Auction Marketer bidding software it comes with a powerful valuation module that allows both trade and private users to quickly enter vehicle data using the number plate look up tools.
Depending on your chosen configuration, you can capture all of the required data along with photographs and video, allowing you to provide an accurate ctin siae and even raise contract paperwork for the vehicles to be consigned.
Vehicle Splat Tool
Auction Marketer have also worked closely with clients to develop a user friendly tool to record any damage on a vehicle.
This can be used at both the valuation or consignment points of the item describing journey. The tool makes is really easy to add a record of cracks, scuffs, and scratches to specific areas of the vehicle via a drag and drop tool, giving potential buyers full transparency on the condition of the vehicle.
The top down view of the vehicle can then shown along with the photos and videos on the website, making the online presentation for each vehicle complete.
Secure Auction Deposit Payments
Sometimes its important to be able to secure buyer commitment through the use of deposit payments.
Auction Marketer gives you the control to set deposits at user, auction and individual lot level. We work with Stripe to securely process and release payments from card tokens that are captured from bidders during the registration process.
If a lot sells provisionally, the platform can auto-charge a deposit against a users stored card, and deposits can be held and used against the fuller purchase price if required.
Non-deposit payments can be made using the Stripe Connect system with open banking which will then auto pay out the auctioneer with their fees and settle the remaining balance directly with the vendor.
Vertical Ready Out of the Box
We’ve been transforming auctions and adding value to our auction partners since 2006 by designing and building our platform to work for all verticals. No more trying to make an industrial platform work for fine art or a fine art system for classic vehicles! Take a look at the auction technology designed to service multiple verticals...
