Art Auction Software: Your Own Art Auction Site
Easy.Auction, continued as Auctify
4,000+ customers across Easy.Auction and Auctify
Easy.Auction is a hosted, no-code auction site builder that lets galleries, artists and art dealers run online art auctions on their own website and domain. Each artwork can carry a reserve price, so a painting or print does not sell below the minimum you set, plus a Buy Now price for collectors who prefer to purchase outright. Custom attributes defined per category let you record details such as medium, dimensions or edition for every piece. Sales carry 0% commission under a flat monthly fee. Easy.Auction is continued as Auctify, where new art auction sites start with a 7-day free trial and no credit card.
Frequently asked questions
Can I stop an artwork from selling below its value in an online auction?
Yes. Easy.Auction lets you set a reserve price on each listing, so an artwork is not sold if bidding stays below that amount. Auctions that end without a sale can be relisted automatically, and you can add a Buy Now price for buyers who want to secure a piece without bidding.
Can several artists sell their work on one art auction website?
Yes. In Easy.Auction's multi-seller mode, members list their own works on your site, similar to eBay. As the site owner you can charge those artists a commission percentage or listing fees, and sell Premium or highlighted listings for works they want to feature more prominently.
Does Auctify have a ready-made starter site for art auctions?
Yes. Auctify, the successor to Easy.Auction, has a dedicated starter site for art. Its Starter plan costs $49 per month for 100 lots per month with zero commission, and a 7-day free trial is available without a credit card at https://auctify.com/free-trial.php.
