Release 10 - May 2026

Release 10 focused on reliability across reports, guest lists, and auction close, plus auto-bidding and a redesigned dashboard.

Highlights

Auto Bidding

Bidders can set a maximum amount and let Handbid bid on their behalf up to that limit, rather than watching an item and re-bidding manually.

How to set a max bid

Redesigned Auction Dashboard

The auction grid on the Manager dashboard was rebuilt as a list view, so it is easier to scan a lot of events at once.

Table Inventory Report

A new report showing table inventory for seated events.

More improvements

• Bulk lowering of starting bids works from the bulk edit tool, instead of opening and saving each item
• Guest list pagination survives a filter — a filter no longer drops the pager after the first 100 guests
• Guest list export includes the ticket purchaser’s name, not just the ticket name
• Pay with donor advised funds appears on mobile browsers, not only on desktop
• Item timers are no longer cleared when an auction’s status changes

Fixes

• Items could close and generate purchases while still in extended bidding.
• The Ticket Purchases report ran out of memory on larger events.
• Partial payment invoices with zero-value items raised a payment error.
• Real-time updates between the iPad Manager and other devices could stop during a live auction.
