A unique bid auction is a type of strategy game related to traditional auctions where the winner is usually the individual with the lowest unique bid. Unique bid auctions are often used as a form of competition and strategy game where bidders pay a fee to make a bid, or may have to pay a subscription fee in order to be able to participate.
This type of competition requires bidders to place bids that are unique bids. That is, for a bid to be eligible to win no other bidder can have made a bid for the same amount. Bidders are generally able to place multiple bids and the number of current bids at each amount is typically kept secret. In a lowest unique bid auction, the bid that is the lowest and unmatched when the auction closes is the winning bid. Unique bid auctions will typically allow bids to be very precise, in that each bid can be specific to the ‘cent’.
