## What is WBidMax?

The WBid Bidding System

This system is designed to assist Pilots and Flight Attendants in managing their monthly scheduling bid.  Additionally, this system can be used by any entrepreneur who may want to provide a bid service for Pilots and Flight Attendants.  

WBid has a proud 20+ year history of serving Pilots and Flight Attendants, and several Bid Service companies.

This software allows the user to download bid data from the WBid back end, which in turn allows Pilots and Flight Attendants the ability to filter (set constraints), weight (set weights) and sort (set sort method) the bid lines in the downloaded bid data.

Once you learn and master the WBid bidding system (very easy, with lots of help documents and videos), you will be able to bid in no time at all.

The WBid Bidding System has more features and capabilities than any other Bidding System.

Four different views of bid data (Summary, Bid Line, Modern, and Calendar)

### 1/5 — Crash!

*2020-08-03*

I created an account, read the tutorial (which isn’t short, but there’s a lot to explain), logged in, and it crashed. Opened again ... crash. And again. I’ll try that other app, thanks.

### 5/5 — Top notch bidding app

*2020-06-28, version 1.54.9*

Still the best bidding app for SWA. Much easier interface than the other.

### 5/5 — WBidMax pays for itself!

*2020-05-09*

WbidMax allow me to optimize my bid for both financial and quality of life improvements. The financial improvements easily pay for the price of WBidMax!  This is a great app that effectively improves my seniority because guys senior to me that don’t use WbidMax are missing out on schedule nuances that make a difference!

### 5/5 — Love WBid!!

*2020-05-02*

I have used WBid since before we could bid on SWA.  I love it. Never had an issue ever.

Thank you!

### 1/5 — App loves to crash

*2015-03-08*

App crashes and you lose all your work.  Vacation overlap is good but Crewbid doesn't crash.

### 5/5 — Just in time!

*2014-07-09*

Fantastic!  This came out just in time to make bids for August and since I had vacation it couldn't have come at a better time.  I had some questions about vacation pay and immediately received a call from the developer; what fantastic service!  I love the quick and easy drag and drop sorting and the new modern bid view which is excellent for individual line sorting. I also love the ability to sort by pairing blocks which is been added to the iPad app. Keep up the great work!
