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 or live streamed.

Below we guide you through the steps and answer some of our most frequently asked questions.

We have made some changes to simplify the registration process where possible and improve your experience.

You can now complete the majority of your registration to bid once the online catalogue is released, including all ID checks. Leaving only the bidder security card hold will need to be completed six days before the auction day

When the online catalogue is released you can:

• Review and accept all terms and conditions
• Select the lot(s) you intend to bid on
• Select your bidding method (applies to live streamed auctions only)
• Enter your bidder and (if different) buyer details including name, email and address
• Complete certified ID verification checks for the bidder and (if different) the buyer. Details of the required documents can be found here
• Enter your solicitor's details

From six days prior to auction you must arrange your bidder security (see Buying FAQs for further details).

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.
