### "Great Experience!"

January 3, 2023

5.0

I would DEFINITELY recommend TravelPledge and have no reservations about using them again.

Pros

It was extremely helpful to be able to have a couple of conversations before setting everything up so I knew how to proceed. The representatives I spoke with were informative and made it simple.

Cons

I can't think of anything at the moment.

Reason for choosing WinningBidder.com

The reviews of other past users made the difference for me.

### "Travel Pledge for your auction"

September 11, 2022

5.0

It has been good, I am sure it is easier than I think, I don't have a lot of time to work with it.

Pros

Easy of implementation. Getting items is super easy.

Cons

Set up account/banking I think it should have been more clear what needed to be done before the auction. Maybe a support person to reach out.

### "Great Option for Non-Profits"

October 30, 2023

5.0

Very positive experience. Would like to see more local experiences available. Would like the ability to do golf tournaments and walk-a-thons in addition to silent auctions.

Pros

Ease of use and professional presentation were key factors. The ability to have offline payment processing was a key deciding factor. Winning bids paid within 48hrs of close of auction.

Cons

Would like to see more notifications and the ability to add another user who also receives same notifications.

Not enough local products, services, or experiences

### "Very happy with TravelPledge!"

February 26, 2023

5.0

The customer service was very responsive and the software was easy to use. I would like to thank TravelPledge for making our online auction very successful.

Pros

TravelPledge was very easy to use. When I had questions, their team messaged me right away via the online chat. They were very helpful and kind.

Cons

I wish our small non profit was not limited on the number of TravelPledge auction items to list with our own auction items. Many of TravelPledge items were purchased, which helped our non profit raise much needed money to fund our program.

Getting started has been a challenging process. Although I will admit that user error plays a part.

Pros

WinningBidder was easy to set up and use. I liked the opportunity to use my own donated items in addition to using items I procured through their partner site.

### "Without TravelPledge We have no Silent Auction"

January 27, 2022

5.0

Travel Pledge allowed us to include a silent auction for our annual poker tournament when we would not have been able to have one without them due to lack of inventory and time.

Pros

Library of additional Items for bid. Easy set up

Cons

Wish there were more low to medium priced items in the library

Overall great experience. We are a small event and easy to manage outstanding donations. Because I am a first time user, I did not realize that attendees would have after the auction closed. All in all, everyone paid and nice product.

Pros

Easy to add auction items and user friendly

Cons

Not able to edit auction items after silent auction is live.

Reason for choosing WinningBidder.com

Easy and free. We are a small non profit
