iRostrum

Charity & not-for-profit auction software

Run professional fundraising auctions under your own brand, with low admin overhead, flexible event formats, and post-auction processes that are easy to manage.

Built for not-for-profit fundraising auctions

iRostrum supports charities, community organisations, and not-for-profit fundraisers running silent auctions, timed online auctions, live events, and recurring annual campaigns.

Whether you are launching a one-off fundraising auction or running recurring annual events, the platform is designed to support the full auction process before, during, and after the event.

The commercial model should stay simple and proportionate, so more of what you raise can go to the cause rather than unnecessary platform overhead.

Manage the full fundraising auction lifecycle in one place

  • Publish and manage lots for bidding
  • Open and close auctions automatically
  • Capture bids in real time across silent, online, or live formats
  • Generate post-auction results and reports
  • Issue invoices to winning bidders
  • Accept online payments or manage manual payment workflows

This reduces the need for spreadsheets, disconnected tools, and manual follow-up, giving fundraising teams greater confidence that the operational side of the event is under control once bidding ends.

Flexible enough for one-off campaigns and recurring events

Run a single campaign or event when that is all you need, while still benefiting from full post-auction invoicing and payment management.

Many organisations run one or two major auctions each year, keeping their platform active between events to support awareness, donations, and preparation for future fundraising activity.

The pricing model should remain straightforward and low-risk, making the platform more accessible for fundraising teams of different sizes.

With fast setup and intuitive admin tools, fundraising teams can launch quickly and manage the auction process with less operational strain.

Charity & non-profit auction features

Charity-friendly pricing

  • Keep the commercial model straightforward and appropriate for fundraising, so more of what you raise can go to the cause.

Flexible fundraising auctions

A simpler bidding experience that keeps attention on the cause

Fundraising auctions work best when supporters can focus on participating, not on learning a complicated platform. iRostrum reduces friction for bidders, especially as auctions approach their close.

That helps supporters stay engaged with the auction and the cause, while giving organisers complete end-to-end oversight.

“We chose iRostrum because the admin area was straightforward to use, it was easy to add and edit lots and images, and it gave us the back-office information we needed to run a successful auction. We also valued the ability to align the public-facing auction with our own website. After five successful auctions, we continue to use iRostrum.”
