Briskon builds intelligent, intuitive, and scalable online auction software, redefining the bidding experience with its advanced e-auction framework
OVERVIEW
An e-auction (electronic auction) is an online bidding event where buyers compete to purchase products or services via the Internet. It involves transparent, real-time bidding through digital platforms, making transactions efficient, fair, and accessible to participants regardless of geographic restrictions. Auction house owners benefit significantly by reaching a wider audience and managing auctions more efficiently. They can also leverage detailed analytics from e-auction platforms to optimize bidding strategies and enhance profitability.
types of e-auction
The different types of e-auctions include:
Forward e-auction
In this model, sellers list products, and multiple buyers place progressively higher bids. The highest bidder wins. E-auction software facilitates this by providing real-time bidding interfaces, ensuring transparency and efficient management.
Reverse e-auction
In this type of auction, buyers specify their requirements, and sellers compete by offering the lowest prices. E-auction software automates the bidding process and provides real-time updates to ensure competitive pricing and fairness.
Dutch e-auction
The auction begins with a high price, which is gradually reduced until a bidder accepts it. E-auction software helps manage price reductions and promptly notifies participants to ensure smooth transactions.
Sealed-bid e-auction
Bidders submit confidential bids, and the highest bidder wins. E-auction software ensures data security and bid confidentiality, enhancing trust and fairness.
Vickrey e-auction
This is similar to sealed bids, but the highest bidder pays the second-highest bid price. E-auction software calculates and manages these outcomes transparently.
Penny e-auction
Participants pay a fee for each bid, and the price increases by small increments. E-auction software manages bid tracking, fee collection, and time-based bidding processes.
Hybrid e-auction
This model combines features of different auction types, like sealed and open bidding. E-auction software provides customizable settings to tailor the auction process to specific needs.
Overall, e-auction software enhances efficiency, transparency, and convenience across various auction formats, ensuring seamless operations and better user experiences.

An e-auction is an online bidding process where buyers and sellers participate in real-time auctions through a digital platform, ensuring transparency, efficiency, and competitive pricing.
E-auctions work by allowing registered participants to place bids on products or services within a set timeframe. The highest (or lowest, in reverse auctions) bid wins, depending on the auction type.
Common e-auction types include English auctions (ascending bids), Dutch auctions (descending price), reverse auctions (suppliers bid competitively), and sealed-bid auctions (hidden bidding).
Businesses, procurement teams, auction houses, government agencies, and even individuals can use e-auctions to buy and sell goods or services efficiently.
Participants need to register on the auction platform, review the auction terms, and place bids within the specified timeframe. Some auctions may require a pre-qualification process.
Real-time bidding allows participants to place and adjust bids dynamically as the auction progresses, ensuring fair competition and better pricing outcomes.
