Connecting hidden supply with hidden demand

How The Pallet
Exchange works.

Every pallet business has stock it cannot place and customers it cannot supply. TPX connects the two, across a verified national network, without either side revealing who they are.

Two ways to trade

Whether you are clearing stock or chasing it, the flow is simple and the identities stay hidden until a deal is done.

Selling surplus stock

  • 1. List the pallets you want to move, anonymously.
  • 2. Verified buyers place sealed bids you cannot see ranked.
  • 3. When bidding closes, you accept the best offer.
  • 4. The buyer pays into settlement, you arrange delivery.
  • 5. Funds release to you once delivery is confirmed.

Sourcing stock you need

  • 1. Browse live listings, or post a Buy Request for what you need.
  • 2. Place a sealed bid, or let verified sellers bring their surplus to you.
  • 3. Win the deal and pay into settlement.
  • 4. Take delivery and confirm it.
  • 5. No buyer commission, ever.
Silent blind bidding

Deals won on merit, not on who you know.

Bidding on TPX is sealed. When you place a bid, nobody else can see it, and you cannot see theirs. There is no "leading" or "outbid" signal and no running total. Everybody puts forward their genuine best number, once.

Prices are never shown publicly. Your customers are not browsing the exchange, so your buying and selling prices are never exposed to the wider market. That protects your margins and keeps every deal fair.

When bidding closes, the seller sees the offers and chooses. Identity is only revealed to the two parties once a deal is confirmed, so a trade can happen without either side knowing who they were bidding against.

Settlement

Money that is protected on every deal.

Step 1

Buyer pays in

On a confirmed deal, the buyer pays into TPX settlement rather than direct to a stranger.

Step 2

Goods delivered

The seller arranges delivery of the pallets to the buyer.

Step 3

Delivery confirmed

The buyer confirms receipt. Only then are the funds released.

Step 4

Seller paid

The seller is paid, less commission. No sale means no commission.
