The Market Decides. You Benefit.
BidSpace is built on one belief: when multiple qualified buyers compete for the same space, everyone wins — except the old way of doing things.
Here's exactly how it works, from first listing to confirmed campaign.
A simple partnership agreement that defines your fee split, listing rights, and terms. No exclusivity required.
Our team photographs, measures, and profiles your inventory — dimensions, location, footfall, permits, and print costs.
We build and publish your listing. Every listing is reviewed for accuracy and compliance. You approve before it's published.
Your chosen auction window opens — typically 3, 5, or 7 days. During this time verified buyers with active escrow deposits browse and bid, you receive real-time notifications as bids come in, and BidSpace monitors for bid integrity.
You don't need to do anything during the auction. We handle it.
The highest bidder is notified and issued a formal Award Notice. Losing bidders are automatically refunded within 24 hours. The winning buyer settles their invoice — bid amount plus pass-through costs like permits, printing, and installation.
BidSpace issues a Work Order to your approved suppliers. Printing and installation are scheduled and executed. Campaign confirmation — including geo-tagged, timestamped photographic proof — is delivered to the buyer.
BidSpace deducts its 12% platform fee and transfers your net earnings within 3–5 business days of invoice settlement. A full transaction summary is provided with every payout.
Register and complete KYC verification — typically less than 24 hours. Keeps the platform serious.
Deposit funds into your BidSpace escrow wallet via M-Pesa, bank transfer, or card. Your balance determines your max bid.
Explore available adspace by category, location, format, dates, and budget. Place bids on multiple auctions simultaneously.
Found the right space? Place your bid. The system confirms your deposit covers the bid. You can set a maximum bid limit and let the platform auto-bid on your behalf up to that ceiling.
After payment is settled, BidSpace coordinates printing and installation using the owner's approved suppliers. You receive a confirmed campaign schedule, vendor contact details, and geo-tagged photographic proof of placement.
