Who can bid in the Bidding Room?

Sign in to view the auction floor. To bid, your business must be approved and match the request’s industry and service province. A pending or unapproved profile cannot place bids.

How long does an auction last?

Requests are scheduled with a five-minute preview, followed by five minutes of bidding. The winning business then has a five-minute contact window. Follow the countdown on each request; new requests depend on client demand, not a guaranteed publishing schedule.

How does the bid wallet work?

Wallet amounts are in Canadian dollars. Funds are reserved while you hold the leading bid and released if you are outbid. The winner is charged the winning amount when the auction is awarded. Add funds manually when needed; automatic top-up is not currently available.

When can I see the client’s contact details?

Contact details are private during bidding. They become available to the winning business after the auction closes. The winner should contact the client within the displayed window and confirm contact on the auction page.

Does winning guarantee a paid job?

No. A winning bid purchases access to a client lead, not a guaranteed contract, sale or client response. Discuss the work, pricing and agreement directly with the client.

Bidding Room — Canadian Client Lead Auctions | PRC

Browse Canadian client requests in the PRC Bidding Room. Approved businesses can fund a bid wallet, compete for matching leads and contact the client after winning.

How the Bidding Room works

1. Review a matching request — Sign in and review the request, location and countdown. Bidding requires an approved business in the matching industry and service province.

2. Bid with available funds — Review the minimum bid before submitting. A leading bid reserves wallet funds; being outbid releases that reservation. The winner pays the winning amount.

3. Win and contact the client — After the auction closes, the winner can access the client’s contact details. Use the five-minute contact window and confirm contact on the auction page.
