At Gas Card Auctions, the highest UNIQUE bidder
becomes the owner of the auctioned lot.
This is known as a "unique bid auction".
To find out more about types of auctions: click
here.
It's just a little twist to the conventional way of auctioning
in order to give bidders an opportunity to obtain a Gas Card
at the absolute LOWEST price. And you don't have to give this
card to somebody else of course... just use it for yourself.
Participants in our auctions can enter a bid that they are
prepared to pay for the fuel card. There is only one bidder
who can obtain ownership of the fuel card, so if there are
bidders who have entered the same bid, those bids are not
unique anymore.
There can be a lot of unique bids been entered during an auction
but only the highest of those unique bids is successful.
