After invitations have been sent, the system tracks which bidders have accepted their invitation and created an account, as well as which bidders have not yet acted on the invitation. To enhance this workflow, NextLot now provides the ability to **export a list of bidders who have not accepted their invitation** directly from the HQ area. This export can then be imported into HubSpot or another email marketing platform, allowing you to send follow-up campaigns and re-engage bidders who did not respond to the initial invitation. By exporting this data, auction companies can more effectively market to potential bidders and increase account creation and bidder participation. #### How to Export Pending Bidder Invites 1. Navigate to **NextLot HQ**. 2. From the **Bidders** menu at the top of the screen, select **Bulk Import/Invite**. ![Screenshot 2026-07-14 at 7.02.26 PM](https://devops.nextlot.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-07-14%20at%207.02.26%20PM.png?width=2981&height=293&name=Screenshot%202026-07-14%20at%207.02.26%20PM.png) 3. Search for the client whose bidder invitations you previously sent.   ![Screenshot 2026-07-14 at 2.53.16 PM (2)](https://devops.nextlot.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-07-14%20at%202.53.16%20PM%20(2).png?width=1846&height=315&name=Screenshot%202026-07-14%20at%202.53.16%20PM%20(2).png) 4. Once selected, you will see a statistics bar displaying: 1. - Total Invitations Sent - Pending Invitations (bidders who have not accepted) - Accepted Invitations - Acceptance Rate 5. To export the list of bidders who have not accepted their invitation, click the **Export** button in the upper-right corner of the screen. 2. ![Screenshot 2026-07-14 at 2.53.38 PM (2)](https://devops.nextlot.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-07-14%20at%202.53.38%20PM%20(2).png?width=1860&height=338&name=Screenshot%202026-07-14%20at%202.53.38%20PM%20(2).png) 3. 6.The system will generate a spreadsheet containing the pending bidder information. This spreadsheet can then be uploaded into HubSpot or another marketing platform to send follow-up email campaigns, re-invite bidders, and encourage account creation and participation in future auctions. ![Screenshot 2026-07-14 at 2.54.05 PM (2)](https://devops.nextlot.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-07-14%20at%202.54.05%20PM%20(2).png?width=1900&height=148&name=Screenshot%202026-07-14%20at%202.54.05%20PM%20(2).png)  The spreadsheet will contain all the bidder unique contact information. The final column of this spreadsheet is a unique bidder invite URL that is a tokenized URL that when executed, will allow that bidder to set up their password for their bidder account. This particular data point has been added to Hubspot as a data point and can be used to allow you to create a button in the email to send to the bidder prompting them to complete the registration for their account. **FEATURE UPDATE – Bidder Login & Registration Header Language** To provide a clearer and more intuitive experience for bidders, the Register/Login page has been updated with new header text and instructional language. This also includes clicking on Register to bid when attempting to register or login for an auction.  ![Screenshot 2026-07-10 at 12.41.01 PM (2)](https://devops.nextlot.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-07-10%20at%2012.41.01%20PM%20(2).png?width=800&height=399&name=Screenshot%202026-07-10%20at%2012.41.01%20PM%20(2).png) Previously, bidders could become confused about whether they needed to log in or create a new account before entering their email address. The updated language helps guide bidders through the process more clearly. >   > > ![Screenshot 2026-07-15 at 8.48.28 AM (2)](https://devops.nextlot.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-07-15%20at%208.48.28%20AM%20(2).png?width=532&height=511&name=Screenshot%202026-07-15%20at%208.48.28%20AM%20(2).png) > >     You'll notice that the **"Log In to Your Bidder Account"** option now makes it much clearer for returning bidders. If a bidder already has an account, they simply enter their email address to sign in. If they don't have an account, they'll see the **"Don't Have an Account?"** section at the bottom of the window with the option to **Create an Account**. One of the biggest improvements with this update is that the system now guides bidders to the correct action automatically. For example, if a new bidder enters their email address in the **Log In** section but doesn't have an account, the system will prompt them to **create an account** instead. Likewise, if a bidder attempts to create a new account using an email address that already exists, the system will direct them to **log in** instead. This makes the registration process much more intuitive and virtually eliminates user error. See the video below for a demonstration. --- Updated Knowledge Base Articles ## [Related posts [Internal System Release Notes November 11th](https://devops.nextlot.com/blog/internal-system-release-notes-november-10th) [Development Team](https://devops.nextlot.com/blog/author/development-team) November 11, 2025 [Read more](https://devops.nextlot.com/blog/internal-system-release-notes-november-10th)](https://knowledgebase.nextlot.com/knowledge/how-to-re-order-you-auction) ## [Internal System Release Notes May 22nd, 2026](https://devops.nextlot.com/blog/internal-system-release-notes-may-22nd-2026) [Development Team](https://devops.nextlot.com/blog/author/development-team) May 22, 2026 [Read more](https://devops.nextlot.com/blog/internal-system-release-notes-may-22nd-2026) ## [Internal System Release Notes November 3rd 2025](https://devops.nextlot.com/blog/internal-system-release-notes-november-3rd-2025) [Development Team](https://devops.nextlot.com/blog/author/development-team) November 4, 2025 [Read more](https://devops.nextlot.com/blog/internal-system-release-notes-november-3rd-2025) ## Related posts ## [Internal System Release Notes November 11th](https://devops.nextlot.com/blog/internal-system-release-notes-november-10th) [Development Team](https://devops.nextlot.com/blog/author/development-team) November 11, 2025 [Read more](https://devops.nextlot.com/blog/internal-system-release-notes-november-10th) ## [Internal System Release Notes May 22nd, 2026](https://devops.nextlot.com/blog/internal-system-release-notes-may-22nd-2026) [Development Team](https://devops.nextlot.com/blog/author/development-team) May 22, 2026 [Read more](https://devops.nextlot.com/blog/internal-system-release-notes-may-22nd-2026) ## [Internal System Release Notes November 3rd 2025](https://devops.nextlot.com/blog/internal-system-release-notes-november-3rd-2025) [Development Team](https://devops.nextlot.com/blog/author/development-team) November 4, 2025 [Read more](https://devops.nextlot.com/blog/internal-system-release-notes-november-3rd-2025) [accounting report](https://devops.nextlot.com/blog/tag/accounting-report) ## . facebook-f icon linkedin-in icon Twitter icon instagram icon - Menu Item 1 - Sub-menu Item 1 - Another Item - Sub-menu Item 2 - Menu Item 2 - Yet Another Item - Menu Item 3 - Menu Item 4 --- [![](https://devops.nextlot.com/hs-fs/hubfs/NextLot%20-%20symbol%20-%20full%20color-1.png?width=100&height=100&name=NextLot%20-%20symbol%20-%20full%20color-1.png)](http://nextlot.com) 123 Main Street, City, State 11111 Copyright © 2026, NextLot - Client Email Blasts ```json { "@context" : "https://schema.org", "@type" : "BlogPosting", "author" : { "@type" : "Person", "name" : "Development Team", "url" : "https://devops.nextlot.com/blog/author/development-team" }, "dateModified" : "2026-07-16T19:46:21.031Z", "datePublished" : "2026-07-16T19:46:21.000Z", "headline" : "Internal System Release Notes July 16, 2026", "mainEntityOfPage" : { "@id" : "https://devops.nextlot.com/blog/internal-system-release-notes-july-16-2026", "@type" : "WebPage" }, "publisher" : { "@type" : "Organization", "logo" : { "@type" : "ImageObject", "url" : "https://devops.nextlot.com/hubfs/NextLot%20-%20symbol%20-%20full%20color-1.png" }, "name" : "NextLot - Client Email Blasts" } } ```
