Bidding Fever is a modern auction marketplace built to replace outdated software with faster operations, stronger trust, and better buyer experiences.
Bidding Fever is a Canadian online auction marketplace. Independent auction houses and liquidators run timed online auctions on it, and Bidding Fever operates the platform without owning the inventory. The seller of each lot is the auction house named on the lot page. Prices are in Canadian dollars, and the site works in English and French.
We started Bidding Fever because we believed Canadian auction houses deserved better. Legacy platforms are slow, expensive, and stuck in the past.
Our platform combines real-time technology, thoughtful design, and a relentless focus on trust to create an auction marketplace that works for everyone. Proudly Canadian, fully bilingual.
Bidders see the hammer price, buyer's premium and applicable taxes for an auction before they bid, and pay no fee per bid. Lots can carry a condition grade from a published scale. A maximum bid lets the platform bid for you, one increment at a time. Sellers pay a monthly plan plus a flat 2% commission.
Purpose-built technology for modern auction operations.
See the current bid and time left, get outbid alerts, and rely on soft close: a late bid extends the lot so everyone can respond.
Built from the ground up for English and French speakers across Canada.
Instant invoicing, secure payment processing, and automatic seller payouts.
Phone verification, buyer reliability scoring, and proactive fraud monitoring.
The figures below are live counts read from the Bidding Fever database when this page loads: live auctions, active bidders, lots sold and provinces covered. A figure is hidden when its value is zero or cannot be read, so nothing shown here is an estimate, a projection or a placeholder.

Every auction is run by an approved seller: Bidding Fever reviews each seller application before the account can publish auctions. Bidders register for each auction, keep a verified payment card on file and may face extra checks, such as phone or identity verification, a deposit or seller approval, when an auction requires them.
Every feature is designed to create better outcomes for buyers and sellers.
Intuitive bidding, personalized recommendations, and real-time notifications keep buyers engaged.
Lot management, analytics dashboards, and automated communications streamline operations.
Built-in dispute resolution, buyer verification, and transparent policies protect every transaction.
AI-assisted listing descriptions and reserve-price suggestions for sellers, and estimated bid ranges for buyers. Suggestions only — sellers and bidders decide.
To bid, create a free account, open an auction and register for it. To sell, apply on behalf of your auction house; once approved, you start a monthly plan. Buyers and sellers can use the platform in English or French, and every amount on the site is shown in Canadian dollars.
