Using the Check-Out Presenter

Updated over 3 weeks ago

The Check-Out Presenter in Auction Flex allows you to display a summary of a bidder’s purchases and hammer prices on a second monitor during checkout. This helps bidders visually confirm their purchases and improves transparency at the payment station.


What You’ll Need

  • A second monitor connected to your computer

  • Extended Desktop enabled in your Windows Display Settings


How to Enable Extended Desktop

Before using the presenter:

  1. Right-click on your desktop and choose Display Settings

  2. Scroll to the Multiple Displays section

  3. Set your second monitor to Extend these displays

  4. Position the monitors in the layout that reflects your real setup (left/right)

  5. Click Apply


How to Launch the Check-Out Presenter

Once your extended desktop is set up:

  1. Go to Auction Check-Out

  2. Click the Check-Out Presenter button (lower-left corner of the screen)

This opens the presenter window on the second monitor.


What the Bidder Will See

The Check-Out Presenter displays:

  • A list of lots purchased

  • Hammer prices for each item

  • Buyer information (if configured)

  • Totals owed

This allows the cashier to complete payment on the main screen while the bidder views their invoice summary.


Best Practices

  • Do not mirror displays — the presenter should run on a dedicated extended screen

  • Position the second monitor where the bidder can easily see it

  • Use the presenter during high-volume auctions to improve checkout speed and reduce disputes
