Choose a winner manually
By default, Tipo Auction selects the highest bidder as the winner when an auction ends. In some cases, you may want to manually choose a different winner.
This guide shows you how to manually select a winner and what happens after.
✅ When should you choose a winner manually?
You may want to manually choose a winner if:
You need to remove invalid or test bids
There is a dispute between bidders
You stopped an auction early
You want to override the automatic result
🛠️ Step-by-step: Choose a winner manually
1. Open the app > click Auctions > Products
2. From the filter field, search and select the auction product you want to select a winner
Another way: Click Bids of the app > go to the bid list
3. Scroll down to Bid history session, a bidder list will show up > click Select as winner on the same line with the bidder you want
✅ What happens after selecting a winner?
Once a winner is selected:
That customer becomes the official winner
Only that customer can place an order
Checkout access is enabled for the winner
Other bidders lose purchase access
The winner can now complete payment within the allowed time.
