How it works for providers
Four steps, and the customer does the chasing.
You never cold-call. Every lead is a customer who looked at your storefront and chose you.
-
Build your storefront
Logo, services, service area, one portfolio project. Finish it and you get 30 days in the “New & complete” spotlight within your rating tier.
-
Get invited
Customers compare reviews and badges, then invite up to three providers. Invites arrive by push notification and email with the job details and photos.
-
Bid your price
Set your price and timing from saved templates. Ask for a materials deposit if the job needs one. The customer's budget is never shown, so your number is yours.
-
Get paid
The customer pays into escrow before the date. When they confirm the work, the money is released to you with a clear ledger of earnings and fees.

Questions
Straight answers.
Does it cost anything to join?
No. There is no subscription and no charge per lead. bidit keeps a 15% platform fee only when a job is completed and paid.
How do I get leads?
Customers browse storefronts, reviews and badges, then invite up to three providers to bid. You get a push notification and an email with the job details and photos. Respond fast and you earn the Fast responder badge.
Can I set my own price?
Yes. Every bid is your price and your timing. The customer's budget is never shown to you, so it can't anchor what you ask.
When do I get paid?
The customer pays into escrow before the job date. When they confirm the work is complete, the money is released to your payout account. If they go quiet, release happens automatically after a set number of days.
What about disputes and no-shows?
Either side can open a dispute from the job. bidit mediates and resolves it from escrow. There are no penalties for a missed window, but reliability is visible in your badges and reviews.
