Saffronart, an Indian online auction house, has launched a mobile application that enables auction participants to bid for art works and jewelry using their mobile phones. It provides collectors on the move with features like bidding, auction results, previews of sales and more.
Users can download this free mobile bidding application at www.saffronart.com, and use it to bid, browse the auction catalog, monitor auction progress and check auction results. According to the company, the application works seamlessly on most Java enabled mobile phones from brands such as RIM Blackberry, Nokia, Motorola and Sony Ericsson.
Key features of Saffronart's new mobile bidding application include:
Bidding: Users can place new bids through their phones easily. A color-coded bid status indicator lets users know if they hold the leading bid. The application is also equipped with proxy bidding features allowing users to place, monitor and stop their proxy bids.
Auction Progress and Results: The application allows users to keep track of auction progress with information on current bid amounts and bid histories. Users can check auction results after the auction has closed.
View Sale Catalogs and Lot Details: Bidders can preview the entire auction catalog, including details such as size, surface, medium and estimates, and view images.
Search: Users can search auction catalogs by lot number, artist or designer name, material or type of jewelry to easily find items of interest.
Safety and Security: To bid, users need to be pre-registered for the auction and approved to bid by Saffronart. Login details and bids are transmitted securely using industry-standard technologies.
