Pisobid: THE BASICS!


Hi guys! This post will be a guide to new Pisobidders that might find the website a little confusing. The truth is, it's not. Below is an image of what the actual site look like and the corresponding meaning of what's written inside.




Lime Colored Box - contains the HOME, HOW IT WORKS, WINNERS, BUY BIDS, CONTACT US LINKS.
  • Home Link - Is the homepage where you can see the present auctioned items and their corresponding ending times.
  • How It Works Link - You can see the mechanics of Pisobidding and Frequently Asked Questions with their corresponding answers.
  • Winners Link - Contains the list of the past Pisobid winners and the items they won, the date when they won, the highest bid and the username of the highest bidder.
  • Buy Bids - Instructions on how to buy additional bids.
  • Contact Us - You can find the email address of Pisobid's customer support group. If ever you have questions about the game or any technical difficulties about the site, you can ask them here.

Red Colored Box - Is the name of the items in auction. In the example, the item in auction is a  Samsung Galaxy Tab.


Yellow Colored Box - The items original price. NOT THE PRICE THAT YOU WILL PAY FOR IF YOU WIN. The example has an original price of 21,990 pesos.


Black Colored Box - The countdown timer. After the regular time runs out, this timer will be set to 15, 10, and even seconds to give time to other bidders to bid. This will go on as long as there are other bidders who will bid for the item. The timer depends on Pisobid.


Green Colored Box - The regular countdown timer. This might be set by Pisobid for 2 days to let Pisobidders prepare.


Rose Colored Box - THE BID button. You cannot bid if you are not logged in, not registered and if you do not have enough bids.


Purple Colored Box - If you win in the bidding, THIS IS THE PRICE THAT YOU WILL PAY. Everytime a bidder bids, 1 cent will be added here. The highest bidder after the time runs out wins!


Brown Colored Box - That is the name of the present highest bidder of the item.


Maroon Colored Box - is the image of the item in auction. (pretty huh..)


There are 2 types of bidding/auction


A Bid Back Auctionidentified with the small hammer icon. If you lose a Bids Back auction, you will have the option to buy the product at the listed retail price and get all of your bids on that auction returned to you! This means that you can freely bid as much as you want to try and score the product at an unbelievable price!


A Cherry AuctionA cherry auction is a special auction for PisoBid users who have not yet won an auction. These kind of auctions can be identified by the cherry cherry auction icon icon


That's it guys! I hope this can help! Happy Bidding!
