Capabilities

Everything the stage needs. Nothing it doesn't.

momoGood live auction software gives your auctioneer, AV team, and back-of-house staff the tools to run a fast, high-energy live auction — with every bid tracked and every dollar collected.

Real-time audience displays

Project the current lot, current bid, and bid history on any screen in the venue. Displays update instantly as bids land, building energy and urgency in the room.

Auctioneer & bid-tracking tools

Your auctioneer sees every bid in real time on a dedicated console — current high bid, bidder number, bid history, and countdown. No clipboard, no confusion.

Mobile bidding beside paddles

Guests bid from their phone or raise a paddle — both methods feed the same live total. Mobile pledges and paddle raises work side by side.

Live leaderboards & counters

Display a real-time fundraising thermometer, bid leaderboard, or pledge counter on the main stage screen. Watch the total climb as the room responds.

Instant winner notification

The moment the auctioneer closes a lot, the winner gets a text with their item, amount, and payment link. No waiting in line at the cashier table.

Payment & tax-deductible receipting

Accept cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and DAF Pay. Send checkout links to winners after the event. Tax-deductible receipts are sent automatically.

Event types

Works with your event. Every format.

Galas & benefit dinners

Run a live auction as the centerpiece of your black-tie gala. Audience displays keep the room engaged while mobile bidding captures every bid — from the front table and the back bar.

Benefit concerts & performances

Layer a live auction into your benefit concert with projected lot displays between sets. Guests bid from their seats without leaving the show.

Hybrid events

Remote guests can follow along with live displays and participate in fund-a-need and paddle raise moments alongside in-room attendees.

How it works

From catalog to cashier. Three steps.

STEP 1

Build your catalog

Add lots with photos, descriptions, donor credits, and fair market values. Set starting bids, bid increments, and buy-it-now prices.

STEP 2

Run the auction

Your auctioneer drives the live console while audience screens display the action. Mobile bids and paddle bids feed the same leaderboard in real time.

STEP 3

Settle and thank

Winners get instant notification and checkout links. Tax-deductible receipts and thank-you messages send automatically.

STEP 4

Follow up and grow

Send thank-you texts, share impact updates, and invite attendees to your next event — all from one donor record that connects to your CRM.

The live thermometer on stage kept the energy up all night. Every time a pledge dropped, the whole room reacted. We raised more in the paddle raise than we did in the live auction.

FAQ

Live auction questions, answered.

What is live auction software?

Live auction software is a platform that powers in-person and hybrid live auctions for nonprofit fundraising events. It provides real-time audience displays, auctioneer bid-tracking tools, mobile bidding, instant winner notification, and integrated payment processing — replacing clipboards and manual bid tracking with a digital experience that raises more.

Can remote guests bid in a live auction?

Yes. momoGood live auction software supports hybrid events where remote guests bid alongside in-room attendees. Remote bidders see the same real-time displays and can place bids from their phone or laptop.

Does it work with fund-a-need and paddle raises?

Yes. momoGood live auction software includes built-in fund-a-need and paddle raise tools. The audience watches pledges land in real time on a projected thermometer, and donors can pledge from their phone or raise a paddle — both methods feed the same live total.

What do the audience screens show?

Audience screens display the current lot, current bid, bid history, countdown timers, and live leaderboards. The display updates in real time as bids land, creating energy and urgency in the room.

How do winners pay?

Winners receive a checkout link by text after the auction closes. momoGood supports credit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and DAF Pay. Tax-deductible receipts are sent automatically.

Can live and silent auctions run in one event?

Yes. momoGood runs live and silent auctions simultaneously within a single event. Silent auction items accept mobile bids throughout the evening while the live auction runs from the stage — all on one platform with one donor record.
