How to set up an online auction using Jotform?

Could I book a call to get this figured out. I think I know how this should work and it's just not working for me.

I've tried adding products to the auction but there is no way to set them to sell in an auction environment versus a static price per piece.

I want to sell as many as 15 paintings in an auction format.

Thank you so much.

Ciel.

Hi Ciel,

Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. We don’t currently offer live phone support. If you have any questions, just reply to this thread, or you can create a Help Center thread from the Contact Us page. We’ll be happy to help.

If you are looking to set up an online auction, it is possible to sell products and subscriptions online using the Product List. You may want to take a look at our list of ready-to-use and editable Auction Templates. Here's a guide on how to use a form template. You can also build your form from scratch by following our guides on how to create your first web form.

Once you've built your auction form, you may integrate the form with PayPal. You can use a personal PayPal account, PayPal Personal, or PayPal Standard. Otherwise, you can use PayPal Business, PayPal Commerce, or PayPal Checkout.

You can also Create a Grid Listing Report and embed it to your form by using the IFrame embed widget, so the bidder can see the bids. Let me show you how

1. On the My Forms page, click on the form that you want to create the report.
2. Click on More.
3. In the menu that opens, click on Create Report.

4. Select Grid Listing. Customize the fields and click on the Create button on the bottom-right side of the screen.

5. Customize the fields and click on the Create button on the bottom-right side of the screen.

Now, you need to embed the Grid Listing Report into your form by using the IFrame Embed widget. Let's do it:

1. In Form Builder, click on the Add Form Element on the top-left side of the screen.
2. In the menu that opens, click on Widgets.
3. Drag and drop the IFrame Embed widget to your form.

Let's configure the widget:

1. In Form Builder, click on the IFrame Embed widget.
2. Click on the Wand icon on the right side of the widget.
3. Paste the link to the Grid List into the Frame URL area.
4. Click on the Update widget button.

We also have a guide about How to Create a Grid Listing Report that you can check out.
