Create a new bid

POST 

/truckers/auctions/bid

Allows a carrier to place a bid in an active auction.

Requirements:

  • Authenticated and active user
  • Verified and enabled payment account
  • Auction in 'published' status
  • Valid bid amount (greater than 0 and less than the current lowest bid)
  • Carrier meets the auction requirements (vehicle type, capacity, etc.)

Typical Flow:

  1. Carrier queries available auctions
  2. Gets details of a specific auction
  3. Places a bid with a competitive amount
  4. If the bid is the lowest, it becomes the temporary winning bid

In case of a winning bid:

  • The carrier and the shipper are notified
  • The auction is locked for other bids if the award price is reached
