What You Need to Know:
Voting Contests turn smartphone voting into a fundraiser—each vote is a cash donation to your organization.
The Voting feature uses the same bidding platform as Online/Mobile Bidding, with separate Bid and Vote screens. This allows you to run bidding and voting simultaneously, with Vote and Bid Nav Bar buttons making it easy to switch between the two.
You can also create block vote options with or without discounts (for example, 1 vote for $10 or 10 votes for $75).
Separate invitations to bid and vote navigate users to different landing pages, but both invites provide access to either voting or bidding via the home screen.
If your event contains both elements, you have the option to:
- Send separate Invitations to launch each portion or
- Send an Invitation to Bid, then direct your guests to click on the Vote Trophy icon to begin voting when the contests begin.
