Keep more of every sale

PHP Pro Bid takes 0% of your auction sales.

Some auction platforms charge a percentage of each sale. PHP Pro Bid does not. If another platform charged 3%, £100,000 in annual auction sales would mean £3,000 in platform transaction fees.

Stripe, PayPal, and other payment providers may still charge their own payment-processing fees.

Common questions

Before you decide

Choose Cloud for the quickest, lowest-friction start. Hosting, setup, updates, and maintenance are handled for you. Choose Managed VPS when you want private server resources, source access, and priority support without managing the server yourself. Choose the License when you have the technical resources to self-host, or want to own the software outright and add hosting or installation only when needed.
Both plans are hosted and maintained by PHP Pro Bid. Cloud is the simpler, lower-cost option and can run on your own domain or a free yourname.phpprobid.cloud address. Managed VPS gives you private server resources, source code access*, managed backups, and priority support. It is the better fit for a growing operation that needs more control.
Yes. The License includes standard support, documentation, and all v10.x minor updates. You can install and update it yourself, or add our same-day installation service. If you do not already have suitable hosting, Standard Hosting is also available.
Yes. Cloud can run on your own custom domain. If you do not have one yet, you can start with a free yourname.phpprobid.cloud address.
No. PHP Pro Bid charges no transaction fee and takes 0% of your auction sales on every plan. Stripe, PayPal, or another payment provider may still charge its own payment-processing fees.
Yes. You can start on Cloud and move to Managed VPS as your needs grow, or discuss moving between a hosted plan and a License. Contact us before changing plans so we can confirm the best migration path for your platform and data.
Cloud and Managed VPS subscriptions include future versions. A License purchase includes version 10 and all v10.x minor updates. Future major versions are optional paid upgrades, with discounted upgrade pricing for eligible existing license holders. You can keep using your current licensed version if you do not upgrade.
