About

Bidster

Features
Read full description

Bidster is a swipe-first auction app. Every card in the deck is a real lot with a real clock. Swipe left to pass, swipe right to save it to your watchlist, or open the lot and place a bid. Browsing and swiping need no account. Make one when you want to bid, and the bid you tapped carries through to the new account along with everything you have already saved. A deck instead of a catalogue. One lot at a time, with a countdown that runs on the server, so everyone watching a lot sees the same clock. A watchlist that fills itself. Anything you swipe right on is saved, and Activity shows you where the bidding has got to. Buy Now when you would rather not wait. Every lot carries a price you can take it at outright. Bids you chose. Nothing bids on your behalf, and a swipe never spends money. Credit for your own activity. XP, streaks and achievements pay out in credit that comes off a real order. Invite people and you earn on the friends who go on to buy something. Sell your own things. Apply from your profile, put a lot up, set where the bidding opens. Prices show in your currency, delivery estimates are worked out from your device rather than promised, and reviews come only from people who actually received the item.
