Rewards Program

We want to make sure that nobody walks away empty handed. That is why we have created a rewards program that allows you to get products for free just for using our site!

  • For each bid you place in our auctions, you earn rewards store credits.
  • Rewards store credits can be redeemed in our rewards store for the item of your choosing.
  • As an extra thank you to our dedicated customers, you can reach higher rewards levels as you play more. A higher rewards level means that you earn rewards points faster, which means you get more of the items that you want absolutely free!
  • For more details on the rewards program, see Rewards Program Details.

It really is just that simple. Register for free today to see what we're giving away.

Leaderboard

The leaderboard at Bidzilla.com keeps track of our users who have saved the most during the current calendar month. Savings are computed as the difference between the total of the prices paid for items and the total of those items’ market value as listed in the item descriptions.

At the end of each month, we give out prizes to users who have saved the most during that month. At that time, the user who is ranked #1 on the leaderboard will receive 100 free bids at Bidzilla.com. We also randomly draw another user from the top 10 to receive 50 free bids, and we randomly draw another user from the top 50 to receive 25 free bids.

Auction Types

Standard Auctions
Standard auctions start either at a specified time or when a specified number of users join the auction. Each bid increases the price of the item by the bid increment, usually $.05 or $.10. Each bid also increases the timer by the timer increment, usually 5-10 seconds. The auction ends when the timer reaches zero and the winner is the person who made the last bid. Every standard auction has different bid and timer increments, so check the individual listings for details.

More auction types coming soon! Please check back often.

Auto Bidder

In most auctions, you have the option of using our Auto Bidder. The Auto Bidder is designed to take over for you in case you need to be away from your computer for a few minutes. Auto Bidder allows you to specify the price range and maximum number of bids you would like it to place. To use Auto Bidder, go to the Auto Bidder tab in the auction window, and fill in the required information.
