Paddle-Up auction monitor for school galas
Catalog, bidding, and event-night monitoring in one campaign.

School auctions are rarely just an auction. The same weekend you may sell gala tickets, run a silent gallery, call a live auction, and take card payments at a checkout table—often with a rotating cast of parent volunteers. Paddle-Up keeps those workflows on one campaign layer so goals, branding, bidder numbers, and reporting stay in sync.

Built for event night

  • Catalog items and packages with photos and values
  • Printable bid sheets with QR codes; photo upload + assisted verification
  • Silent and live formats in the same campaign
  • iOS staff app for monitoring and on-site work
  • Stripe-backed checkout and Terminal-ready POS

One transparent rate—Stripe processing plus 0.1% + $0.15 per transaction. AI is pay-as-you-go when you use the assistant—purchase tokens per organization. The models we run are not cheap; including unlimited AI in our low per-transaction fee would not be sustainable.
