A membership, a refundable deposit that sets your buying power, then flat fees only on the cars you win. Every purchase adds reward credit toward your next fee or renewal.
Bidding access to one auction: Copart or IAA. Good if you already know where you shop.
Bidding access to both Copart and IAA, so you can compare lots across both yards.
The deposit is a guarantee, not a payment. It covers the auction's penalty if a car you win isn't paid for. Each auction has its own buying power and deposit.
| Copart | IAA | |
|---|---|---|
| Deposit | 10% of buying power | 15% of buying power |
| Minimum buying power | $6,000 | $6,667 |
| Minimum deposit | $600 | $1,000 |
| Example: $20,000 buying power | $2,000 | $3,000 |
| Paid by | Bank account | Bank account |
Deposits are paid by bank transfer only. Your deposit comes back when you lower your buying power, as long as you have no open bids or unpaid vehicles. Lowering it to zero closes your account.
Type a price below and the matching row lights up. The broker fee is set by bracket, so it doesn't creep up with every hundred dollars you bid. Every vehicle also has a flat $49 paperwork fee that covers your title and documents shipped to you.
Our broker fee is a flat price per bracket, never a percentage, plus a flat $49 for paperwork and title shipping. Auction buyer fees, taxes and transport are separate and set by the auction.
Reward credit goes to your account after the car is paid for. Use it on your next broker fee or your membership renewal.
