About BidPal Network
BidPal Network improves charitable fundraising by wirelessly automating the auction bidding process. BidPal’s handheld bidding devices use iPod Touch technology—eliminating paper bid sheets and costly item catalogs, while making bidding easy and exciting for guests. Because guests can bid on auction items from anywhere at any time, charitable organizations greatly increase the number of bids per item. Pre-event consulting, real-time monitoring of auction proceeds, no-hassle checkouts, and immediate post-event reporting are just a few ways that BidPal is revolutionizing charitable fundraising.
