How to get competing bids

01
📋

Describe what you need

Fill in category, specs, location, dates, and your budget range. The more detail you give, the tighter the bids you'll receive. Takes under 3 minutes.

Our spec forms are engineered for each equipment category — a crane request asks for lift capacity and radius; a generator request asks for kVA and phase. Lessors get everything they need to quote accurately.

02
🔔

Verified lessors are notified

The moment you post, KYC-verified lessors matching your category and region receive a notification. They see your full spec, budget range, and bid deadline.

You set the expiry window (24h to 14 days). Urgent site needs get a 24-hour window. Long-term project sourcing can run 14 days to collect the most competitive offers.

03
⚖️

Compare bids side by side

Each bid shows the lessor's rates, their KYC status, their pitch, and their profile with past reviews. No more guessing — compare everything in one place.

Bids show daily, weekly, and monthly rates, or a fixed total price. You can see if the lessor brings their own operator, what their fuel arrangement is, and what their delivery terms are.

04
🏆

Award and pay securely

Click 'Award' on the bid you want. The lessor is notified instantly. Pay via GCash, Maya, or card through PayMongo — funds held in escrow until the rental starts.

5% platform fee on the total rental value. Funds are released to the lessor once the rental activates. Both parties can mark completion; disputed rentals go to our resolution team.

FAQ

Common questions

Is it really free to post a request?

Yes. Renters pay nothing to post. The 5% platform fee comes out of the rental value, paid by the lessor from the total.

How does PayMongo escrow work?

When a renter pays, the funds go to PayMongo (not directly to the lessor). We release them when both parties confirm the rental has started. This protects both sides.

What's the KYC process?

Lessors submit a government ID and business documents. Our team reviews them within 1–2 business days. Verified users get a ✓ badge visible on all their bids and listings.

Can I cancel after awarding a bid?

Before payment, you can cancel any time. After payment, cancellation policies depend on the lessor's terms. Disputes go through our resolution process.

What categories do you support?

15 categories: Heavy Equipment, Cranes, Generators, Vehicles, Trucks, Power Tools, Scaffolding, Warehouses, Cold Storage, Farm Machinery, Marine, Events, Tech & AV, Compressors, and Concrete Equipment.

Do lessors see each other's bid prices?

No. Lessors can see how many bids have been placed, but not the amounts. This keeps competition honest.
