Frequently Asked Questions

What integrations are available for your auction software?

One of the primary benefits of TRAXERO is our ability to integrate our products, which provides a comprehensive suite of business solutions designed for the towing industry.

 

Connect your Towing Management Software to seamlessly move inventory to your auction, integrate with TowLien, our lien notification and processing solution to obtain title to vehicles prior to auction, and take credit card payments using TowPay, our purpose-built payment solution.

What training will my employees and I receive to learn this platform?

Your Dedicated Customer Success Manager assigned to you will set a training timeline that usually takes a few Zoom calls and hands-on homework. We try to work around your schedule by breaking the training down into smaller chunks, allowing you time in between to practice and learn on your own.

 

Here is a typical timeline to launch your first auction on Day 30:

Day 1: Zoom Demo of Auction Simplified by TRAXERO
Day 7: Virtual Training and Access to Software
Days 10-14: Training and Mock Auction
Day 14-21: Load Inventory, Start Promotion and Buyer Development
Day 21-29: Inventory Posted Online

Will I earn more through an auction instead of scrapping?

It’s simple math, by adding additional scrappers and pick-n-pulls to bid on your scrap list, you will see incremental improvements. 

 

For example, if three scrappers each bid $25 above the previous bidder, you would earn $75 more on average. If a bidding war ensues on a special part unit, the bids could reach hundreds, if not thousands.

Is there a real human available for customer support when questions arise?

Our Customer Support and Customer Success teams are what set TRAXERO apart from the rest. As an Auction Simplified user, you’ll have a dedicated Customer Success Manager to help you organize your auctions, troubleshoot issues, or answer questions you have at any time!

What is the average sales price of vehicles sold by towers through your platform?

While performance will vary based on your inventory and buyer base, our towers who hosted auctions in 2023 earned an average of $973 per vehicle sold.

How do buyers at my auction pay for vehicles?

You can integrate your auction software with our credit card processing solution, TowPay, to accept credit card payments on-site or through the platform.

 

Or you can also accept other forms of payment as you wish and manually record payments.

Does TRAXERO handle buyer development?

While you’ll have your dedicated Account Manager to help guide you through practices to help promote your auction, Auction Simplified users create the majority of their buyer base themselves.

 

As a result, you’ll keep more revenue from your auction and have more control and insight on how you host your events.

How much does it cost?

When you take control of your auctions, you keep more of what you earn! Our Product Specialists can help guide you through setting fee structures for your buyers that cover the costs associated with access to the auction platform.
