eBay Live Description
eBay Live offers an engaging livestream shopping platform where eBay users can participate in real-time events led by influencers, brands, and sellers. To take part in an eBay Live event, individuals must be logged into an eBay account, with the feature currently accessible solely to US-based users. Within the eBay Live Hub, shoppers are able to discover upcoming events, set reminders, follow their favorite sellers, and activate push notifications for event alerts, followed sellers, and personalized event suggestions. All activities on eBay Live are public, allowing other participants to see a user's username and live engagements, and the livestreams may be recorded or repurposed by viewers. Sellers have the option to present items through both Buy It Now and live auction formats, which include extended auction features—often referred to as soft-close auctions—where an additional five seconds is granted if a bid is placed during the last five seconds. This interactive shopping model not only enhances the buying experience but also fosters a sense of community among participants.

Since 2012, AuctionMethod has provided white-label auction software and custom auction software development for the auction industry. Based in Massachusetts, serving the U.S., Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.

There are no commissions, no per-lot fees, no platform skim, and no contract, so clients keep the revenue from every sale instead of splitting it with the platform. Clients keep 100% ownership of their bidder lists, seller lists, item data, images, and transaction history on a fully white-label auction website.
The platform covers catalog and lot management, consignor management, bidder registration, invoicing, payment and tax handling, and reporting in one system. Auction event types include timed online auctions, simulcast auctions, blind timed auctions, catalog-only, fixed-price, and perpetual events. AuctionMethod includes a mobile app for iOS and Android. For operations whose workflows fall outside the standard product, AuctionMethod also builds custom auction software development solutions at a fixed rate. AuctionMethod's pricing starts at $100/mo with a $250 one-time setup charge. AuctionMethod offers a 30-day free trial, no credit card required.
Highly rated 4.9/5 on Capterra and SourceForge with a 94% renewal rate.
