OneCause

OneCause (formerly known as BidPal) is the absolute enterprise heavyweight in the non-profit auction space. If a massive, multi-million dollar hospital foundation is throwing a 1,000-person black-tie gala at a Ritz-Carlton, they are almost certainly using OneCause to run the silent auction, the live auction, and the paddle raise. While Handbid leans heavily into its native app, OneCause is famous for its flawless "Mobile Browser Bidding." Many high-net-worth donors at galas do not want to download a new app from the App Store just for a three-hour event. OneCause allows them to simply click a link in a text message, opening a highly optimized web app that allows them to start bidding on items in less than five seconds. It provides incredibly deep analytics for the development team. A non-profit director can look at the OneCause dashboard after the event and see that "Sports Memorabilia" received 50 bids per item, while "Spa Packages" only received 2 bids per item. This data dictates exactly what items the charity should solicit from corporate sponsors for the following year's gala to maximize revenue.
