How to Use Warid Reverse Auction Service?

With Warid Reverse Auction the winner is the person who makes the lowest bid that no one else has made! Unlike a normal auction where the highest bidder gets to buy an item at the price they bid, with this service the customer placing the lowest unique bid wins the auction and gets to buy the auction item at the minimum unique price!

Send your bid amount in an SMS to 3000. Please remember that your bid must be in paisas. For example if you wish to bid Rs 3.21 please send 321 as your bid amount.

Participating in Warid Reverse Auction is as easy as following the ‘3 2 1’ steps below:

When two people place a bid for the same amount, that bid is no longer unique

When a person has a unique bid but there are other unique bids that are lower, then it's not the lowest bid

Rs. 3+Tax/SMS
