Comparison
A long-running auction back office, owned since 2019 by Auction Technology Group — the company behind Proxibid, BidSpotter, and LiveAuctioneers.
Wavebid pioneered the independent back office, but it is no longer independent — ATG owns it, pricing is quote-only, and its documented integrations point at ATG's own marketplaces. If your volume runs through HiBid, note that HiBid appears nowhere in Wavebid's public help documentation.
