What merchants think

Feedback submitted

Merchants describe this as a reliable, feature‑rich auction solution that keeps customers on their store and integrates well with Shopify. Some mention setup challenges, but say support responds within minutes, even on the free plan, and will jump into their store to fix issues, embed widgets, and provide step‑by‑step guidance. Once configured, merchants find it intuitive, smooth, and effective for engaging, multilingual auctions.

This app is definitely helps with running auctions via shopify. I will say that several features are still in development and I have often had to reach out to support to resolve issues such as automatic bids not working at the last minute of an auction, website formatting, and a few other issues users can't resolve on their own through the portal. Their replies are often fast, however there have been a few times they couldn't figure out what was wrong or their default settings were confusing and I ended up with some angry customers. Overall though, as long as they keep working on it I think it can be a really helpful app.

Took the time to adjust all settings and setup an auction and it just never added the auction to the listing despite activating the app on the theme. Chat was unresponsive. Waste of time.

Very Patient Customer Service ... I am not tech savvy .. I was trying out a few different auction apps and somehow got myself in a mess .. was ready to give up and tried to delete only to make a bigger mess .. Then the Help Arrived. I was frustrated and rude and did not deserve the Awesome Help they Provide! Figured out what I did wrong and showed me how to do it correctly .. 100% Recommend !! Now I Can Easily Create Auctions !! Just What I Needed !! Thank You !!

We haven't done the live auction yet (which is the only reason why I gave it 4 stars), but comparing and testing this app to the few others, this had all of the features we needed. I tested it several months ago and am now getting ready for the auction. I needed support with the widget, which is really quite simple in how it works. I had edited my product template and hid the buy buttons, which is what triggers the widget to be shown. Support was excellent and I didn't wait long for someone to reach out to me on live chat and figure out what the issue was. I am excited to finish setting up the action and seeing it in action.

Our store recently moved over to a 2.0 Theme and we needed a new auction app for a once-a-year event. We are using the Advanced plan ($15/month). This app was perfect for our needs, easy to set up in an afternoon and customizable with our brand colors. I had a quick question with set-up and the person I talked to in the customer service chat was fast, thorough, and super friendly. I would definitely recommend this app.

The support from the team has been exceptional. We have been running offline auctions for 13 years selling thousands of products and the move to online has been seamless and very fast thanks to Auction Today. Would highly recommend.

We've been using the app for 3 days so far, and we've had nothing short of an incredible experience! The platform itself is better than the competitors we've used on the App Store so far, not just in features but in tech support as well!
If this app isn't exactly what you're looking for, we highly recommend talking to support first before ending your free trial because Shakil and his team have been extremely accommodating with any problem we've run into, and they've taken our feedback and suggestions seriously!
Would 100% recommend!

I experienced significant issues with this app, leading to two instances where it disrupted my store's functionality.

The mobile interface freezes when attempting to access features not included in my subscription plan.
Furthermore, the starter plan, priced at $9/month, lacks automation for basic tasks, relegating even email notifications to a "premium" feature.

My encounters with customer service were particularly disappointing. Their responses felt dismissive and unhelpful, leaving me with the impression that my concerns were an inconvenience rather than valid issues needing resolution.

Thank you for your review. As you can see from dozens of other reviews we pride ourselves in providing top-notch customer service, I believe there was some confusion on what was causing the issue with your theme, as you may already know there are 100s of themes in Shopify Ecosystem and if its something specific to your theme we would have been happy to work with you to identify the issue. In terms of the starter plan, we clearly specify in our pricing section, what is included in what plan. On the point of the mobile interface, App's admin interface is fairly complex and feature-rich and hence best suited for a desktop, however, our storefront widget which is what customers see is fully responsive on mobile devices. Finally if you allow us to serve again by installing the app, we will ensure we resolve the theme issue you were having.

I have had quite a few questions for customer support since I integrated this app with my store. Whether it's finding practical solutions to a problem I am facing, or needing the developers to update a problem on the backend, customer support is always there and willing to help. There are still some features I would love to see added to the platform to make it even more user friendly and enhance the customer's experience. That being said, I like this product. Auction Today has been a big help to me and streamlining how my business is run.

I’ve tried a couple different auction apps and have deleted them because they were so difficult to navigate/install. This one was SO easy!! But be conscious of the fact that you may need the app developer to activate something on his end before the auction can go LIVE. Just leave yourself enough time to do that! But once you’re ready, the customer service is excellent! Helped me get my auctions LIVE immediately! So excited to use this app.
