🏆Adding and Managing Your Sponsors
The Sponsors page lets you upload sponsor logos, create text-based sponsor entries, and organize everything into groups all of which display on your event's auction layout for guests to see.
Showcasing sponsor logos on your ClickBid site helps:
-
Recognize and thank supporters
-
Drive visibility and brand exposure
-
Encourage future sponsorships
-
Make your landing page look polished and professional
💡 Tip: Add clickable logos to drive traffic to sponsor websites!
⚙️ Accessing the Sponsors Page
- Log in to your ClickBid event admin dashboard.
- In the left-hand navigation, click Software Settings to expand the menu.
- Click Sponsors.
➕ Adding a Sponsor Logo
You can upload sponsor images directly to your event using the drag-and-drop upload area.
- On the Sponsors page, locate the Add Sponsors section at the top.
- If you want to add the sponsor to a specific group, select it from the Add Sponsors to Group dropdown before uploading. You can leave this set to Not Grouped if you prefer.
- Click the upload area or drag and drop your image file into the drop files to upload.
- Repeat for as many sponsor logos as you need.
ℹ️ Ideal image dimensions are no larger than 1000 x 1000 pixels. Uploading multiple copies of the same logo is a great way to give a sponsor extra visibility in your layout.
➕ Adding a Text-Based Sponsor
If a sponsor doesn't have a logo, you can create a simple text entry instead.
- In the Add Sponsors section, scroll below the upload area to the text sponsor form.
- Enter the Sponsor Name in the first field. This is required.
- Optionally, enter a Sponsor URL to link the sponsor's name to their website.
- Click Add Sponsor to save.
⚙️ Creating Sponsor Groups
Sponsor groups let you organize your sponsors into tiers — like Gold Sponsors or VIP Sponsors — and display them separately on your auction layout.
- Scroll down to the Sponsors section on the page.
- In the Sponsor Group Name field, type a name for your new group (for example, "Platinum Sponsors").
- Click Create Sponsor Group.
- The new group will appear in the list below, ready for sponsors to be added to it.

💡Create your sponsor groups before uploading logos so you can assign each sponsor to the right group right from the start
📌 Info: Sponsor group names will appear above the logos on both the landing page and bidding site.
