Open the item from the shared auction
Aucly has no public auction marketplace. Open the auction or Auction Hub link shared by the organiser, then choose an item.
Before Place Bid, read the description for restrictions and collection or delivery terms.
Understand the amounts
Before any bids, Starting Price is the opening amount. Once bidding begins, Current Price is the leading public amount. Increment controls the allowed steps, and the bid window shows the minimum currently required.
In Set a new maximum, enter the most you are willing to pay. Your maximum is private and can be higher than the Current Price. See Proxy Bidding for how Aucly uses it.
Select Bid anonymously to show Anonymous Bidder instead of your name in public bid history. Aucly and the organiser can still identify you. Select Place bid to confirm your commitment to pay the final winning price if you win.
Read the result after submitting
If your maximum puts you in the lead, the item shows Current Price, your private Max Bid and You're currently winning!.
If another bidder has already set the same or a higher maximum, you will be outbid immediately. Increase your maximum only if you are happy to pay more.
If the minimum bid changes while the window is open, close it and select Place Bid again to see the latest amount. Ended auctions accept no further bids.
While the auction remains open, select Modify Bid to set a higher maximum. Only enter an amount you are willing to pay.
If your account also has organiser access, use Switch to Bidder before bidding.
