Lightening Round: Biddy Bidz
Quazi Shafi Sunny
THE MODEL * Users pay for bids, rather than staTng the maximum amount they
are willing to pay for. * Each bid cost around $0.60. * Every Bid increases the Tme 1p. * Last Bidder wins when the bid Tmer reaches 0:00:00 Each Bid also increases the Tmer 10sec to 20sec. * Winner Pays final price reached before Tme finally ends.
The amount is fairly low since each bid increases the Price by 1p.
WHY BIDDYBIDZ? Our InnovaTons:
01: The Biddy Bidder *Tool that places bids for you between pre-‐determined set range. *Users are able to set their bids range and be acTvely involved in the aucTons while they are away from their systems.
02:The Biddy Meter *AcTve Bidders ojen start bidding on a product with an passionate intenTon to WIN. *Making them aware of the number of bids available in their account was a challenge, we innovated the biddy meter.
03: Buy It Now *We encourage our users to be acTvely involved in aucTons. *As an incenTve we offer 'Buy it Now' opTon where users can purchase the product at MSRP minus the cost of bids spend on the aucTon.
