Credit card processing is fully built into the CharityAuctions platform.
There is no need to connect an outside payment processor or set up a merchant account. Everything is handled automatically for you.
No Setup Required
Unlike many auction platforms, CharityAuctions does not require administrators to:
- Create a separate payment processing account
- Connect to a third-party provider
- Enter complex merchant details
- Manage technical integrations
Secure payment processing is already included and ready to use from day one.
How Payments Are Handled
When bidders check out and pay invoices:
- All payments are processed securely through CharityAuctions
- Transactions are protected using industry-standard security
- You do not need to handle credit card information
- Bidders can pay easily online by card
The system takes care of everything behind the scenes so you can focus on running your event.
What You Do Need to Provide
The only information you ever need to provide is where you would like your auction funds sent after the event.
After your auction ends, you simply:
- Request a payout
- Tell us where to send the money
- Receive your funds
There is no requirement to set up or manage payment processing in advance.
