The tender lives here
TenderTiger points at tenders published elsewhere. On Bidancer the tender itself lives here: a verified business hosts it, sets the rules, receives the bids and awards the work.
TenderTiger tells you a tender exists somewhere else. Bidancer is where the tender lives: hosted by a verified business, bid on with credits, awarded and recorded in one place.
Choose TenderTiger when your pipeline is public-sector work and you need wide, filtered discovery across the portals that publish it. Choose Bidancer when you want to run procurement yourself — host the tender, set the rules, receive credit-backed bids from verified businesses, and award the work with the whole record in one place.
About TenderTiger
TenderTiger is a long-established tender information service. It aggregates tenders published on government and public-sector portals, plus international and private-sector opportunities, and sells subscriptions that deliver filtered alerts by email, SMS and web access, alongside competitor tracking and results data. It tells you an opportunity exists somewhere else; the bidding then happens on whichever portal published it.
Side by side
TenderTiger sells alerts about tenders published elsewhere. Bidancer is where a verified business hosts the tender, receives comparable bids, and awards the work.

Why Bidancer
TenderTiger points at tenders published elsewhere. On Bidancer the tender itself lives here: a verified business hosts it, sets the rules, receives the bids and awards the work.
Private businesses can host tenders of their own, not only respond to public-sector notices. Procurement stops being something only governments get to run properly.
Every bidder is KYC-verified and pays credits to bid, so a bid represents a business that actually wants the work. Unsuccessful bids are refunded.
Bids arrive in a comparable structure and contact details are revealed on acceptance — so evaluation is a comparison, not a pile of PDFs and a phone list.
Pricing models
Bidancer
Hosting a tender is free. Bidders spend credits per bid and are refunded when a bid is not accepted. There is no subscription and no charge for access — every wallet movement is ledgered.
TenderTiger
A subscription buys access to aggregated tender information and filtered alerts, priced by the scope of coverage — the fee is for discovery, whether or not you go on to bid.

Switching
You don't have to burn a bridge to build a better one. Set up Bidancer alongside your existing presence and move serious demand over.
Complete KYC for your business so every tender you host or bid on starts from an accountable identity.
Publish the requirement, set eligibility rules and the bidding window, and let verified businesses bid. Hosting costs nothing.
Compare bids side by side, award the work, and get contact details on acceptance. Keep an alert subscription for public-sector discovery if that is your pipeline.
Questions, answered
No. Bidancer does not aggregate government tender notices from public portals. If your pipeline depends on public-sector discovery, an alert service still does a job Bidancer does not.
Any KYC-verified business can host one, set eligibility rules, define the bidding window and award the work. Hosting a tender costs nothing.
Bidding costs credits, which is what keeps speculative bids out. If your bid is not accepted, credits are refunded per the refund policy.
Many businesses will. Use an alert service to find public-sector work, and Bidancer to run your own procurement and to bid on private tenders hosted by verified businesses.
