Cricket Auction Pro
Cricket Auction Software for Franchise-Style Leagues
Franchise-model city leagues — where local businessmen or groups buy into a team for a season, much like a scaled-down IPL — put real weight on the auction night, since owners are literally spending their own money to build a squad in front of other owners. Purse discipline and clear, real-time visibility into remaining budget matter more here than in a casual weekend league.
Why organizers use this
- Live, real-time purse visibility keeps owners honest during fast bidding
- Custom team branding lets each franchise build its own identity
- Public display gives franchise owners a return on the spectacle they're investing in
- Role-based access lets a team manager bid on an owner's behalf if needed
- Results export doubles as an official record of each franchise's investment
Typical use cases
- A city franchise league where owners bid personally at the auction table
- A multi-season franchise league needing consistent branding year over year
- A league using the auction night itself as a ticketed spectator event
Frequently asked questions
- Can franchise owners watch their purse shrink live?
- Yes, purse spent and remaining balance update instantly with every sale, visible to owners and, if you choose, to the public display too.
- Can a manager bid on behalf of an owner who isn't present?
- Yes, team-level access can be assigned to a manager, letting them bid on the console using the owner's agreed strategy.
- Is this suitable for a ticketed or sponsored auction event?
- Yes, custom and sponsor branding combined with the public display make it suitable for an auction night treated as its own event, not just a logistics step.
