Northern Beaches Women's Shelter

AU
The GalaBid online bidding platform is brilliant. I highly recommend it. We raised record funds at our Gala event on the weekend. We had raised over $40,000 in our silent auction before the event even started. The platform is user-friendly, for setup and for the users. Galabid staff are supportive in the lead-up, during the event, and post-event. This platform has been a game changer for our fundraisers. Totally worth the investment, you won’t regret it.

South West Healthcare

AU
My health service, South West Healthcare, has just finished a fundraising raffle with GalaBid. Working with Angela and Andrew was terrific. They were so helpful, supportive, professional and knowledgeable and we plan to again work with them later this year. We've also rolled out an online raffle with GalaBid. It too was a successful fundraising and community-engaging initiative.

Perry Cross Spinal Research Foundation

AU
Could not recommend GalaBid more, PCSRF has been using this platform for 8 years and it has been a game changer for our fundraisers, increasing money raised year on year. The platform is easy to use for admins and fantastic for the users. Our supporters love it as do we! Totally worth the investment!

Hilton Hotels

US
Excellent. The technology was seamless. The follow up was prompt. Overall I would really recommend this service for charity balls & other fundraising events.

Nordoff Robins Music Therapy

US
The auction exceeded my highest expectations and more than doubled last year's take. We can’t speak highly enough of our auction manager's efforts, charm and professionalism. In my dealing with him up to the event he was terrific with great update speeds and made it clear that nothing was too much trouble. Without his presence and your system our take would have been considerably less. I'd recommend your company and it’s services to anybody.

Ronald McDonald House Charities

US
We have used GalaBid at our events with +400 guests and +100 auction items. It has made the entire silent auction process much easier, less resource heavy, and ultimately increased our revenue.

I would like to thank you so much for providing such an excellent service which greatly helped our Hares on the March campaign become such a wonderful success. We would recommend you to anyone.

Applegreen Charitable Fund

Thanks for running a great auction. It was great to work with you on this. Highly recommended!

Grey Lynn School

NZ
We loved using GalaBid! The entire process was incredibly straightforward from start to finish. As a busy school, fundraisers can often be time-consuming, but we were thrilled with how little hands-on effort was required once everything was set up. The completion process was equally seamless. Our families also shared how much they enjoyed the user-friendly, non-technical interface. We will absolutely use GalaBid again!

The Arts Foundation

NZ
I highly recommend GalaBid for your Digital and Live Auction. It is user friendly with helpful tutorials and videos, as well as support when needed. Taking payment, creating invoices and dealing with bidders is extremely efficient. My favourite feature would be the volunteer accounts, which was particularly useful for our team to use at the event. We will continue to use GalaBid in years to come!

Laura Fergusson Brain Injury Trust

NZ
GalaBid extended our fundraising reach beyond the ticketed guests in the room. Having the ability to bid anonymously from home suits some of our supporters. We also had some key supporters offshore who were still able to participate in the bidding. The online bidding added a sense of excitement to those bidding in the room as they weren’t sure what to expect next. We were very happy with the outcome.

Hagar New Zealand

NZ
GalaBid was just so easy to use. It is very intuitive and even for a non-technical user, so simple. We got an amazing result and the support from Cathy was second to none. Great value for money and something we will definitely use again.

Diocesan School for Girls

NZ
We hosted a gala dinner which featured a live and silent auction to raise funds for a very special philanthropic cause. GalaBid was a fantastic platform to help us achieve our fundraising goals. From the get-go the platform was very user-friendly with any changes made seamlessly. The customer care was outstanding enabling us to go live on the night with confidence galore. In fact, because of the live streaming feature on the night we were able to raise even more. I highly recommend GalaBid to any organisation looking for an outstanding auction result.

Artist Aid Ukraine

GB
We could not have been more impressed by the platform Galabid gave us to raise money for work with the victims of the Ukrainian conflict. We were able to run a week-long auction of nearly 100 donated artworks and also a month-long sale at fixed price of over 250 pictures and sculptures. We have raised over £150,000 for the charities involved. The whole process was pretty straightforward for us as volunteer administrators, and for our purchasers and donors. Dee Brannick and her team could not have been more helpful. We have experience of several on-line fundraising and auction sites – we will never look past Galabid.com again, and would recommend them to anyone looking for a cost-effective, professional and slick event partner.

Royal Ascot Outfits

GB
I needed prize draw technology in a hurry for a charity initiative I hoped to organise. A quick Google search delivered GalaBid into my lap. And it did not disappoint. I submitted an enquiry and immediately heard back from Dee Brannick, one of its founders. She was superb from start to finish helping me set up an incredibly professional looking hosting site that was so easy to navigate both on the back end up & also for our donors. She went above and beyond in helping me, giving guidance as required and being available to answer all my questions. I cannot rate her or the platform highly enough and will be suggesting it to my contacts especially in the charity sector.

Optus

AU
GalaBid once again were very helpful and professional in helping support this year's silent auction and raffle as part of our fundraising event. This is the third year in a row we have successfully worked together. Keep up the great work!

Sydney Breast Cancer Foundation

AU
3 yrs now using the Galabid platform and it is seriously the best in the marketplace. Backed by the best onsite, account and management personnel who clearly enjoy what they are doing and are fit for purpose and motivation. It makes the whole Galabid experience easy, efficient and brilliant.

Diverse City Dinner

GB
This auction would not have been the success it was without GalaBid's support. We had a very short time lead to deliver this app, I'd never done one nor a fundraiser before so our auction manager guidance, hints and tips and energy on the day made a massive difference.
