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.
