Auction software that sells for you, not for us

Most auction software looks like it was built in 2005 or forces your bidders onto a shared marketplace they've never heard of. Circulaire Auctions is different: every auction house is an isolated tenant with its own inventory, users, and branded public page. Your bidders see your business, not a third-party marketplace.

Behind the scenes you get a modern admin — clean inventory management, role-based access, audit log, and the option to pull AI-assisted valuations from Circulaire's pricing engine straight into a lot's estimate field.

  • Your brand, your domain, your buyers
  • Isolated data — no cross-tenant leakage
  • AI-assisted valuations on every lot
  • Stripe-powered payments and settlement
  • Audit-logged admin actions

Everything an auction house needs — nothing it doesn't

The features that matter, built for how auction houses actually operate.

Multi-tenant by design

Every auction house gets a fully isolated dashboard, inventory, consignors, and auctions. No cross-tenant data leakage — enforced at the query layer, not hoped for.

Whitelabel live pages

Public auction pages served under your own brand — custom logo, colours, and (optional) custom domain. Bidders see you, not us.

Inventory &amp; consignor management

Catalog lots with images, estimates, reserves, and start bids. Track each lot's lifecycle from intake to sold. CSV import for bulk onboarding.

Timed online auctions

Schedule timed auctions, manage status transitions (draft → scheduled → live → ended), and automatically settle hammer prices on close.

AI-assisted valuations

Every lot can pull a market valuation from Circulaire's pricing engine — the same AI that powers our real-time pricing platform across 100+ marketplaces.

Stripe-powered payments

Buyers pay via card and SEPA. Buyer's premium, VAT, and consignor commission calculated server-side and applied on every hammer.

Security you can point to

Tenant isolation, audit log on every admin action, rotated secrets, encrypted TLS 1.3, rate-limited auth. Built on GCP in the EU.

Invite-based onboarding

Enroll your staff via email invite — they set their own password, you keep control of who has access. Password reset + change-password flows built in.

From kickoff to first hammer

Four steps — most customers are live within a week.

  1. 1

    Enrol your auction house

    We create your tenant, invite your admins by email, and help configure currency, buyer's premium, and commission defaults.

  2. 2

    Brand your live page

    Upload your logo and colours. We wire your public auction URL — either a slug on auctions.gocirculaire.com or your own custom domain.

  3. 3

    Catalog your inventory

    Add lots manually or via CSV. Upload images, set estimates and reserves. Optionally pull AI-assisted valuations on each lot.

  4. 4

    Schedule & go live

    Create an auction, pick lots, set times, publish. Bidders register, place bids, and the platform handles settlement on close.

Built for lot-based sellers

If you run auctions — or wish you did — this is probably for you.

Auction houses

Small to mid-sized houses that want a modern online presence without building it themselves.

Specialty dealers

Watches, jewellery, fine art, design, collectibles — anywhere lot-based selling beats fixed-price listings.

Galleries & estates

One-off or recurring estate sales where you need branded live auctions with minimal operational overhead.

Consignment businesses

Professionals who represent sellers and need consignor + commission workflows baked in.

Security & reliability

Built to be pointed at by your compliance team, not hidden from them.

  • Tenant isolation enforced at every query — not just the UI
  • Audit log on every admin action (invites, status changes, payments)
  • TLS 1.3 in transit, encryption at rest, rotated secrets
  • Rate-limited auth + password reset + invite acceptance
  • Hosted in GCP europe-north2 — data stays in the EU
  • Responsible-disclosure programme with public hall of fame

Powered by Circulaire's pricing engine

Every lot can pull a second-hand market valuation on demand — sourced from 100+ marketplaces and validated by the same AI that powers the Circulaire Real-Time Pricing Platform.

Catalogue a watch, handbag, or piece of design furniture, and the platform suggests an estimate range, cites the comparables, and logs the valuation for audit. No more guessing — or waiting days for an appraiser.

Frequently asked questions

Still have questions? We're happy to walk you through the platform.

How long does it take to go live?

+

A new auction house can be enrolled and running its first timed auction within a week. Most of that time is spent collecting your first batch of inventory and tuning your branding — the software itself takes minutes to provision.

Do my bidders see Circulaire branding?

+

No. The public live page is whitelabelled — your logo, your colours, and optionally your own domain. We only appear in the footer if you explicitly want us there.

What auction formats do you support?

+

Today we support timed online auctions with optional reserve prices and buyer's premium. Live floor auctions with clerk-driven bidding are on the roadmap for hybrid auction houses.

How does payment work?

+

Buyers pay through Stripe (card and SEPA in the EU). Buyer's premium and VAT are calculated server-side on each hammer. Consignor commission is tracked per lot and exported for accounting.

How is my data isolated from other auction houses?

+

Every row in the database carries a tenant ID. Every query is filtered by the signed-in user's tenant — enforced in the auth layer, not the UI. Two auction houses cannot see each other's lots, auctions, bidders, or invoices, even via the API.

Can I import my existing inventory?

+

Yes. We offer CSV import with a column-mapper for your existing spreadsheet, and bulk image upload. For your first migration we do it with you, so there's no surprise when your first auction goes live.

Where is the data hosted?

+

Google Cloud in europe-north2 (Stockholm). Data never leaves the EU. Backups are automated, encryption is enforced in transit and at rest.

What's the pricing model?

+

We charge a monthly platform fee plus a small percentage of hammer value. No setup fee and no long commitments — the first month is free while you onboard your inventory. Talk to us for a quote tailored to your expected volume.
