Bidding


You have flexibility in the way you buy. When it comes to bidding at an auction, IAA gives you a few different options for your convenience.

Online


Thanks to technology these days, you can join an auction through IAA's online bidding platform to participate before and during a live auction.

  • Click through vehicle details and images as the vehicle is being auctioned.

  • Get access to auctions through any internet-connected device, from anywhere.

  • Online bidders have the perk of bidding in multiple auctions at once.

  • Bid on multiple auctions at once.

By Proxy


Before the auction, you can place a pre-bid on a vehicle. The highest pre-bid will be represented by proxy at the auction.

  • If you can't attend an auction onsite, securing a proxy bid gives you the opportunity to buy a vehicle anyway.

  • You can set pre-bids on any amount of vehicles up to an hour before the auction.

  • Track the status of your pre-bid.

Apps


Registered buyers can use the IAA Buyer app for mobile devices to place bids before and during the auction, providing our buyers with a convenient and flexible option.
