Oktion is designed to be simple for individuals and organisations to create events and raise funds. With an easy to follow process, organisers can set up and manage an entire Event and add one or more of the following fundraising functions: tickets, raffles and auctions.

Tickets allow organisers to raise funds through admission. With the ability to customise the name, price, quantity and sale dates of each ticket, organisers can create multiple ticket types like “Early Bird Tickets” and “Standard Tickets”. If a Ticketed Event is public, any Oktion contributor can find it on the Oktion website and purchase a ticket. With Oktion’s sharing options, organisers and contributors alike can create more awareness about an event by sharing it on social media.

Raffles allow users to raise funds by offering prizes and selling Raffle Tickets. Organisers can customise the name, price, and quantity of the Raffle Ticket and can even create Raffle Ticket Bundles by setting the price and number of tickets in each bundle. If a Raffle Event is public, contributors can find it on the Oktion website and purchase as many tickets as they like to maximise their chances of winning. And with an automatic, randomized draw, the whole raffle experience can be taken online.

Auctions let organisers put items up for bidding and run auctions in real-time. With no limit on items, organisers can add as many to an event as they like and can customise each item to maximise guest participation. Organisers can fill out an item’s name and description, add item images and set the Starting Bid, Bid Increment, Reserve Amount and Buy It Now Amount. By adding all the bidding information, organisers ensure that the bidding process is simple and automatic for their guests. Organisers can watch how users bid in real-time and see the winning bids go straight into their organisation’s account.
