ClickBid review
An integrated platform for auctions, donations, events, and peer-to-peer fundraising.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
ClickBid is a fundraising event platform for nonprofit organizations running galas, golf outings, silent or live auctions, giving days, peer-to-peer campaigns, and virtual or hybrid events. Its coverage spans event registration, ticket sales, guest and table management, mobile bidding, online and text-to-give donations, raffle-ticket sales, donor communications, reporting, and fundraising pages for individuals or teams. Web, iOS, Android, and API access support different parts of the event workflow.
Its breadth is a central strength. Essentials includes unlimited events and campaigns, online donations, peer-to-peer fundraising, mobile bidding, online auctions, custom event pages, embeddable donation forms, and in-depth reporting and analytics. The platform also connects with Neon One, Blackbaud Raiser’s Edge NXT, Salesforce for Nonprofits, Virtuous, Bloomerang, DonorPerfect, Classy, Double the Donation, TravelPledge, Charityproud, and Zapier. These integrations, along with CRM and API capabilities, make ClickBid a fit for organizations that want fundraising activity connected to wider donor operations.
The paid structure is organized around Essentials and Full Suite. Full Suite includes everything in Essentials plus online ticket sales, guest and table management, custom email and text messaging, and EventStream video streaming. A Dedicated Customer Advisor offering adds personalized training and planning, weekly check-ins, staff and volunteer training, and extra pre-event support. ClickBid should suit nonprofit teams coordinating several fundraising formats in one system, especially when auctions and mobile bidding are central. Organizations seeking only basic registration or a free event tool may find its scope and paid model less suitable.
