4 How you'll be scored

Your bid is scored out of 100 points:

80 price20 B-BBEE

What this means for you: out of 100 points, the cheapest acceptable bid scores the full 80 for price — everyone pricier scores less. The other 20 come from your B-BBEE level (a Level 1 gets all 20; weaker levels get less). Price is 80% of the decision, so to win you must be one of the cheapest. A strong B-BBEE level is the tie-breaker that can beat a rival who's slightly cheaper.

The tender's own words: "80/20 price and B-BBEE"

Common questions

Is it really free to start?

Yes. Browsing every live government tender, searching, filtering by province and getting daily email alerts costs nothing — no card needed. You only pay if you want our AI to read each tender for you and to unlock all nine provinces.

What's the difference between the plans?

Free helps you FIND tenders and get told when new ones open. Pro adds the AI that READS each tender and tells you, in plain English, exactly what you need to bid. Nationwide is Pro across all nine provinces, plus saving and comparing tenders.

Do I have to sign a contract?

No. It's month-to-month. There's no setup fee and you can cancel any time from your account.

Is the tender information official?

Yes. Every tender comes straight from the South African government's National Treasury eTenders system and is updated every day. The AI helps you understand it, but you always bid on the official document.

What is the R399 course / toolkit?

A once-off toolkit that teaches you the exact process to complete and win a bid — how to fill in the dreaded SBD forms, how to price to win, and the returnable documents that get most businesses disqualified. Pay once, keep it forever. It's separate from the monthly plans.
