How to Register to Bid
If you’re interested in bidding on a property, you’ll need to know how to register to bid at our auctions.
The registration process is broadly the same whether an auction is online-only, in-room or live streamed.
Below we guide you through the steps and answer some of our most frequently asked questions.
When the online catalogue is released you can:
- Select the lot(s) you intend to bid on
- Select your bidding method (applies to in-room and live streamed auctions only)
- Enter your bidder and (if different) buyer details including name, email and address
- Enter your solicitor's details
From six days prior to auction you can complete the remainder of your registration:
- Review and accept all terms and conditions
- Arrange your bidder security (see FAQs below for further details)
- Complete certified ID verification checks for the bidder and (if different) the buyer. Details of the required documents can be found here
Important - If bidding at an online only auction you will need to sign up to our online bidding platform prior to auction day:
- Upon successful registration, you will receive an email from Allsop with final joining instructions and details of how to register on our online bidding platform
- Once your online bidding platform account has been approved, you will be able to bid when bidding opens on the day
Please note that each auction sale has its own unique approval process. You will therefore need to register to bid for each and every auction.
Registration deadline
We will make every effort to assist you in registering to bid before the auction. You are strongly advised to register no later than 24 hours before the auction. We accept no responsibility for failure to administer late registrations.
