Sealed bidding

One private best offer. No price chasing.

  • Bidders stay anonymous until payment clears
  • Prices are never shown to the market
  • The highest bid at or above the reserve wins

Other buyers never see your bid, and the seller sees bids arrive but never who made them. If no bid reaches the reserve, the seller chooses one or relists. Identity is only revealed to the two parties once payment clears.

Anonymous trading

Trade the whole network. Reveal nothing.

Before a deal there is no company name, no email, no telephone number and no identifying information, only a rotating trading identity. Company names and reliability bands are shown to both sides once payment clears. You can tell your customers you are a TPX member while staying completely anonymous when you actually trade.
