Create your TenderLock account
Sign up as a buyer or a supplier in a couple of minutes. No card needed.
Updated 7 October 2026
Sign up
- Go to Start free on the TenderLock website, or open the Register page.
- Choose I'm a buyer (issuing tenders) or I'm a supplier (bidding for work).
- Enter your Full name, Organisation, Work email and a password, then confirm the password.
- Tick to accept the Terms and SaaS Agreement and press Create account.
If you were invited to a tender, the email address is locked to the address the invitation was sent to, so your bid is linked to the right invitation.
Sign in with Microsoft or Google
On the sign-in page you can also press Sign in with Microsoft or Sign in with Google. If your organisation uses single sign-on (SAML), use Sign in with company SSO.
What happens next
You land on your Dashboard. Buyers start on the Free plan, which includes one live tender, up to 10 invited suppliers and 150 credits, with no card required. Suppliers always respond free.
Tip: set up multi-factor authentication straight away from My profile › Security. See Turn on multi-factor authentication.
