AUSTIN – 1 Click Auto Auction (1 Click ) debuts with an application and fee structure designed to change the way dealers buy and sell cars at auctions. Created by car guys tired of paying exorbitant auction fees, 1 Click enables dealers to buy and sell their vehicles on the application platform within minutes. 

1 Click was built by car guys, for car guys.

In addition to a flat fee structure and easy to use app, 1 Click Auto Auction gives dealers more opportunity and flexibility than other auction solutions on the market. The app offers one-minute easy to list auctions, exacting filtering tools that enable searches for the precise vehicles the dealership is looking to find, robust valuation tools using pricing guides and vehicle condition reports, and finally, a five star buyer and seller rating system. 

“1 Click was built by car guys, for car guys” said Mark Gibson, co-Founder of 1 Click Auto Auction. “My co-founder, Brian, and I have been the ones standing in the rain waiting for auction, arguing over the valuation after an incorrect condition report, paying excessive fees just to buy or sell vehicles. We knew there had to be a better way, and when we didn’t find one in the market, we made one.”

1 Click Auto Auction launches today in Central Texas, with plans to expand into the rest of the state quickly, with nationwide plans on the horizon. The fee structure and easy-to-use application has been making waves with local dealers eager to cut auction fees that can run into the tens of thousands monthly. 1 Click Auto Auction gives dealers the choice of flat monthly price plans, depending on the number of users accessing the system, and starts at $599 monthly regardless of the number of cars bought and sold. 

“Many of the dealers we’re talking to tell us they are paying in the range of $300-$600 in fees per car at auction. When they do the math, buying or selling of even 10 cars through traditional auctions, they understand very quickly how much money can be made and saved using 1 Click. It’s a game changer,” said 1 Click co-Founder Brian Bruce. 

1 Click also protects both buyers and sellers with its 5-star rating system. After a transaction, both parties are able to rate their experience. If a buyer or seller falls under a 2.5 star rating, they are requested to surrender their app privileges.

1 Click is running a launch promotion for the first 100 dealers to sign up, offering the system at just a dollar for the first month. A free appraisal tool is included with the length of the term. Interested Texas dealers, can sign up here: https://1clickautoauction.com/quick-sign-up.
