Schnapper is a software brand focused on automated bidding tools for eBay auctions. Its sniper programs are designed to place bids near the end of an auction, helping users avoid repeatedly monitoring listings and make more efficient use of their time. Schnapper offers two products: SchnapperPlus, which manages the bidding process from start to finish, and SchnapperPro, a version positioned for professional users.

Both programs can automatically bid up to a user’s chosen maximum, place bids in the final seconds, and support bidding on multiple items at once. The site also describes automatic adaptation to eBay’s website format, fast item updates and imports through multi-channel technology, and the ability to wake a computer from hibernation to bid. Schnapper provides downloadable installers for both products and offers 30-day free trials.

Its website includes product information, ordering and download options, a support forum, service information, and privacy details. The tools are presented as a way to simplify auction bidding while keeping the user’s maximum bid in control
