In order to buy you will first need to register as a buyer. This is a quick and easy process and should take you no longer than 60 seconds to complete. You will need to choose a username and password, which you will use to log on to the site with. After registering you will need to enable your account by clicking on a link in an email we send you before you can log in. Find out more about registering as a buyer.

In order to sell you will need to register as a seller (after first having registered as a buyer). Registering as a seller involves entering a guaranteed form of payment (either South African bank details or credit card). At the time of registering as a seller we will make a debit of R10 using your chosen payment method, which is credited to your bidorbuy account and can be used towards your future bidorbuy fees. This is done to ensure authenticity of sellers as well as to confirm your payment details should you incur any fees from bidorbuy. Most categories on bidorbuy do not incur any fees to list an item however a percentage (between 3.5% and 5%) is charged for successful sales. This means you can list items with no risk. There are exceptions for some special options and categories however you will always be clearly warned of any fees you will be charged upon confirming any items you list. See our Fee Rate Card for a break down of all our charges. Find out more about registering as a seller.

If you intend to make a business out of selling on bidorbuy we strongly recommend you attend one of our selling seminars.
