Private Label Live Bidding Auction Software
Bidstream™ is a fully configurable live bidding software solution, offering a seamless auction experience on any device—including a dedicated mobile app—with sub-one-second audio and video latency via a stable live feed with resiliency for high traffic events.
Before the live auction begins, Bidstream™ displays the full auction catalogue, prompting users to register, place pre-auction commission bids, or submit competitive bids. These pre-bids are automatically integrated into the live auction as autobids once the bidding starts.
Designed for easy integration with aggregator platforms, Bidstream™ includes intuitive clerk tools that keep the auctioneer informed and in control on a single, streamlined screen. With our mobile app, bidders can join auctions and participate from anywhere, enhancing accessibility and engagement.
Transition your bidders to a private-label platform, allowing you to own your data, save clients money, and increase hammer prices—all while still leveraging aggregation platforms as part of your marketing strategy.

Data Security
We offer comprehensive bidder approval for every auction, giving you complete control over bidder access and providing valuable marketing data exclusively for your use.
All data is stored securely and remains the property of the auctioneer—it is never shared across other accounts, ensuring privacy and control over your client information.
Our system includes real-time rule checking for existing and new clients each time they register for an auction. For clients without a bidding history, we offer additional inline security checks, including:
• Credit card tokenisation
• Secure identity verification through Stripe
• Bidder deposits
• Bidder credit limits
• Full AML screening through trusted third-party tools
To further enhance security, Bidstream™ includes optional Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) for both administrators and bidders.
This layered approach ensures that your auctions are both accessible and secure, allowing you to confidently manage approvals and marketing outreach, including post-auction communication with underbidders for future auctions.

Auction Clerking Tools
Bidstream™ Auction Clerking has been designed from the ground up for ease of use. With clear labelling of bidder sources across live bidding, auctioneer, and room screens, both bidders and auctioneers can instantly see the current bid location and asking price. Pre-auction and autobids are seamlessly executed within the clerking system, allowing clerks and auctioneers to keep the auction running smoothly.
Our clerking system is compatible with numeric keypads, enabling fast, high-volume bid entry. Managing bids across multiple platforms is intuitive, with a hammer ID input system to accurately match third-party platform users. Additionally, our third-party bid input screens simplify operations when running auctions with multiple bidder aggregation platforms.
Through our powerful API, Bidstream™ enables real-time data delivery of all bidding results directly into third-party ERP, CRM, and WMS systems, such as Microsoft Business Central, supporting seamless integration with your broader business systems.
With advanced bid logging, every entry by clerks and online bidders is recorded, providing a detailed record for post-auction auditing and compliance, making post-event reviews straightforward and comprehensive.
Auctioneer & Room Screens
With Bidstream™, you can fully customise room screens to meet your auction needs. Display multiple images, rotate through them, add multiple currencies, and more—all while clearly showing the bid source and asking bid so that everyone knows exactly where the bid stands.
Bidstream™ auctioneer screens are designed to present the most relevant information in real time. Key details include bid source, country and city of online bidders, colour-coded bid locations, autobids, and the last lot winner ID to support paper clerking and keep the auctioneer informed at all times.
We can also incorporate additional data to display current sale value against reserve or low and high estimates, along with other useful metrics, providing auctioneers with essential insights throughout the auction.
Live Business Intelligence
Bidstream™ offers a comprehensive, real-time reporting suite that provides auctioneers with full visibility into live auction performance. Our granular bid reporting tool captures every action taken by the clerk as well as every interaction from live bidders, creating a complete, transparent history of each lot.
Each bid is meticulously recorded with its source, bid-type, status, and timestamp, along with identifying details like IP addresses for online bids. Bids that have been undone, re-opened, or passed and any changes to ask or bid increnments are clearly labelled, making it easy to understand the exact bid journey for any lot.
This detailed bid history, combined with Bidstream™ video storage, allows for quick and secure resolution of any disputes that may arise. Even during the sale, the system seamlessly integrates with invoicing, making it simple to generate and issue invoices for onsite payments and online payments in real time. Additionally, for post-sale offers, the platform instantly identifies all unsold lots, enabling you to list them in a post-auction offer sale within hours.
With Bidstream™, you can confidently manage, audit, and review every aspect of your live auctions, enhancing transparency and efficiency.
EvoAuction - MS Business Central integration
Auction Marketer is proud to offer the only fully developed front-end bidding integration with Evo Auction by EvoSoft (BCN Group). While BCN’s Evo Auction product provides a robust ERP back-office system tailored for auctioneers—with tools for inventory management, barcode scanning, auction management, paperwork handling, and advanced financial reporting—this back end alone falls short of a complete, optimised auction solution without integration.
Our software bridges that gap, seamlessly connecting Evo Auction’s ERP strengths with a comprehensive suite of enterprise-grade web tools, including CMS, user management, live bidding, and online payment systems. With Auction Marketer’s unique integration, auctioneers benefit from a unified, real-time connection that maximises operational efficiency while saving time, money, and the stress of building their own integration.
This partnership, developed over 15 years and refined with input from auctioneers worldwide, transforms the Evo Auction system into a true end-to-end solution. Not only does our integration offer the core functionality needed for smooth, responsive bidding, but it’s also scalable—our team can extend and customise functionality to meet the unique needs of each client, ensuring that auctioneers can achieve digital transformation and sustained growth.
