Question 1

What is sports auction software?

Accepted Answer

Sports auction software is a digital platform that enables tournament organizers to conduct live player auctions for franchise-based leagues. It manages team rosters, bidding rounds, purse limits, player categories, and real-time bid tracking — replacing manual auction boards with a fully automated, broadcast-ready system.

Question 2

How does cricket auction software work?

Accepted Answer

The auction operator controls the session from a central dashboard — selecting players, starting bid timers, and accepting bids from team owners. Team owners bid from their phones via a dedicated panel. The LED display shows live action on a projector or TV for the audience. Everything syncs in real time.

Question 3

Can BidWar run IPL-style auctions?

Accepted Answer

Yes. BidWar is purpose-built for IPL-style franchise auctions. It supports player categories (Platinum, Gold, Silver, Emerging), team purse tracking, reserve prices, configurable bid increments, and a broadcast-quality LED display — the same format used in professional leagues.

Question 4

Does BidWar support projector and LED screens?

Accepted Answer

Yes. BidWar includes a dedicated full-screen LED Display Mode for large projectors and smart TVs. It features animated player cards, live bid counters, a SOLD stamp animation, team purse strips, and sponsor logo rotation — all in broadcast-quality resolution.

Question 5

Is BidWar cloud-based?

Accepted Answer

Yes. BidWar is fully cloud-based. The operator dashboard, team owner panels, and LED display all run in a browser — no downloads or installations required. All bid data syncs in real time across all connected devices from any location.

Question 6

Is BidWar suitable for local tournaments?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. BidWar scales from 2-team club auctions to 16-team state-level franchise leagues. The free trial plan supports 2 teams at no cost, making it ideal for first-time organizers and small community tournaments.

Question 7

How much does BidWar cost?

Accepted Answer

BidWar uses one-time per-tournament pricing — no monthly fees. Plans start free (2 teams), then ₹5,000 for Starter (4 teams), ₹6,000 for Pro (8 teams), ₹8,000 for Advanced (12 teams), and ₹10,000 for Elite (16 teams). All prices are per auction event and activate an Auction License for the BidWar Auction Module only.

Question 8

What is included in a BidWar Auction License?

Accepted Answer

An Auction License covers the BidWar Auction Module for one tournament — including one auction purse, unlimited player categories and registrations, and complete auction management up to your plan's team limit. It does not include Sports Scoring, match management, fixtures, live scoring, points tables, statistics, or live streaming. Those require a separate Sports Scoring License.

Question 9

Which sports does BidWar support?

Accepted Answer

BidWar supports all franchise-style sports including cricket, football, kabaddi, basketball, volleyball, badminton, esports, and business/corporate leagues. Any sport where players are auctioned to teams with a budget can be run on BidWar.
