MobileCause Announces Strategic Partnership With HandBid Online Auction Software

LOS ANGELES, CA, Dec. 27, 2017 -- MobileCause, a leading provider of digital fundraising and communication software for nonprofit organizations, announced today the launch of its strategic partnership with HandBid, a software provider that offers an innovative mobile bidding app for silent and online auctions.

HandBid provides a convenient mobile and online bidding experience. With this partnership, MobileCause delivers a seamless solution to manage fundraising events and silent auctions. This collaboration enables nonprofits to raise more money while creating an interactive donor experience before, during and after an event.

“Over the last year, we’ve seen increased interest in complementing live and digital events with silent auctions to enhance fundraising,” said Sean MacNeill, MobileCause CEO. “Being able to offer an ‘in the moment’ experience with mobile giving, live fundraising thermometers and game-like auctions creates memorable events for donors and increases fundraising for our customers.”

The system integration between MobileCause and HandBid brings nonprofits:

• A seamless donor experience at a live or digital event that includes bidding on auction items, digital purchases and donations
• Preferred pricing on bundled digital fundraising solutions
• Integrated event management capabilities from sending event invitations, tracking RSVPs to selling tickets and sponsorships, all driving a simple check-in process from a “guest list”
• Knowledgeable support teams for planning and executing fundraising events and silent auctions, in addition to post-event follow-up and receipting
• Low credit card processing fee through MobileCause merchant services

“We are pleased with the continued adoption of our mobile bidding platform and the amazing response we have received from nonprofits and their guests,” said Jeff Porter, HandBid CEO. “Our clients are asking for more, so the opportunity to integrate our native mobile auction software (app) with the powerful MobileCause platform delivers an integrated suite of event fundraising tools not found in our industry.”

For a limited time, MobileCause customers can receive a free HandBid API integration for their next event. For more information, contact [email protected].
