The all-in-one platform for school fundraising auctions

SchoolAuction.net is fundraising software made specifically for schools and the volunteers who run their events. Whether you host an in-person gala, an online-only silent auction, or a hybrid of both, you can manage procurement, tickets, bidding, checkout, and reporting from one place — and hand it off cleanly to next year's committee.



Loved by school volunteers

I have used the system many, MANY times across multiple schools as my kids were going through school and have come away with a great experience. It's always the system I recommend.

Marc K.California Middle School

I've used this platform for almost 5 years and highly recommend it to organizations looking for a reliable, easy-to-use, and trustworthy auction manager. It's simple to set up both online and in-person auctions, different ticketing types, and even generates all your bid sheets and raffle sheets. And their support is top notch.

The user interface is streamlined while still giving all the needed options for customization. Also, their live and recorded training makes implementation very easy.

School auction software FAQ

What is school auction software?

It's an all-in-one platform for planning and running a school fundraising auction — item procurement, ticketing, online and in-person bidding, checkout, and reporting — instead of juggling spreadsheets, paper bid sheets, and a separate payment system.

How much does it cost?

Plans start free, and there are no per-ticket fees. You can also ask supporters to cover processing costs so more of every dollar reaches your school. Try our pricing calculator to estimate your event.

Can we run an online or hybrid auction?

Yes. Run an in-person gala, an online-only silent auction, or a hybrid where guests bid on their phones before and during the event — all from the same platform.

Is it easy for volunteers to hand off each year?

That's exactly what it's built for. Your setup, item history, and donor records carry over, so next year's committee starts with a template instead of a blank page. Our school auction guide walks new volunteers through every step.
