MATAKA SCHOOL
"Once you have worked your way around the initial setup, it is very quick and easy to load new auctions"
North Golf Association - Auckland
I just want o say thankyou to Toko and the work you as a team have done run our Auction, the service has been second to none and we would highly recommended Toko as an auction site to raise money for any club, school or charity that is requiring auction support. It was extremely easy and our bidders loved the process. Thanks again and we will be promoting Toko to the North Golf Association golf cubs to use should they ever need to hold an auction.
AHUROA SCHOOL
"The fact that it is easy to share the auctions further than just to the parent community is great."
