Can I turn off auction bidder names being shown publicly?
When bidders participate in your Zeffy auction, their names are now displayed publicly on the auction page alongside their bids. This feature was designed to increase excitement around bidding and create a sense of healthy competition among participants.
How It Works
Public Display: When someone places a bid on an auction item, their name becomes visible to other visitors viewing the auction page
Real-Time Updates: As bids are placed, the current high bidder's name is shown in real-time
History of bids: Your bidders can click on the item to open see the history of previous bidders, and their bids as shown below:
Bidder names are shown publicly (first name and last initial) by default, but bidders can tick Bid anonymously when placing a bid to hide their name from the public bid list and the top bidder display. Organizations cannot turn name display off for everyone. If you would like that option, we encourage you to vote on this feature request!
