Tradesperson registration
Free trade registration is open
Register your trade business for Hull and East Yorkshire. Tell us your services and coverage for management review. Approval is required before you can sign in. £0 to register. No card required. No trial starts. Our target marketplace launch is 1 December 2026, subject to launch checks. Use this form if you provide services yourself or represent a business. If you need work done for yourself or your organisation, create a free customer account.
Job enquiries are open for review. Customers can register free, verify their email and submit an enquiry while we build the local trade network. Automated matching, quotes, hiring, bookings and private job messaging are not open yet. Paid memberships and trials remain unavailable. An enquiry is not a booking and does not guarantee work. When hiring opens, you and your customer will agree the work, price and payment directly with each other.
Membership activation is not available yet. It will open only after billing, verification and activation testing is complete. The planned three-calendar-month £0 trial starts only after confirmed usable activation, approval, plan selection, secure card setup and your explicit agreement to future renewals. After the trial, Mate Starter is £19/month for 3 quotes or Mate Boost is £39/month for 10 quotes, including VAT. Membership renews monthly unless cancelled. Cancel before the first paid renewal and pay £0.
- Prepare a business profile with up to five services and the areas you cover.
- Use the planned workspace to keep quotes, jobs and invoices together.
- Keep the work conversation clear, with standard introductions and messages included in the planned membership.
Register your services and coverage to prepare for local matching. Submitted enquiries are awaiting review and matching; they are not yet available for tradespeople to quote on. Account approval, provider checks and membership activation are separate steps.
Customer enquiries
0 submitted enquiries awaiting matching. Customers can describe their work now while we build the local trade network.
These are submitted requests, not confirmed bookings or verified demand. Accounts marked as tests are excluded; unmarked test requests may remain. There is no promise of work or earnings.
Register your trade business free. Verification is required before activation. Standard job introductions and chat do not carry an additional platform fee. Registration does not authorise payment.

What to prepare for your type of business
Choose the description that fits you. Keep identity documents, insurance certificates and bank details out of the public profile and the initial sign-up form.
Sole trader
Prepare your legal name, the trading name you use with customers, your work area and the services you personally offer.
Self-employed professional
Prepare your practice name, professional title and the professional register or qualifications relevant to the advice or work you offer.
Limited company
Use the registered company name and number. Identify the person authorised to register the company and the name customers will see.
Partnership
Identify the partnership, its trading name and the authorised partner. For an LLP, have the registered name and number available.
Registered charity
Have your registered charity name, number and register available. Identify the person authorised to act on its behalf.
Agency
Identify the legal business that contracts with the customer and how you assign workers. Qualification and insurance checks depend on who will carry out the work.
Franchise operator
Identify the franchisee, the underlying legal business, the branch area and your authority to use the franchise name.
Corporate enterprise
Identify the legal entity that will contract with customers, its company number, branch and authorised representative.
Start with our first three services
Handyman & small repairs, Gardening, and Man with a Van / small removals are our Hull priorities. In the trade list, gardening is listed as Gardener / Garden Designer and van/removal work as Removals. Choose only services you actually provide.
What happens after I register?
Submitting this form records your business interest and creates a free pending trade account. We email a password-setup link for later use; management approval is required before you can sign in. Account approval, public profile review, provider checks and membership activation are separate steps. Registering or setting a password does not start a trial or authorise payment. During this pilot we do not promise a fixed approval time; contact the team if you need an update.
Try the workspace before your first monthly payment
When activation opens, choose your plan in a separate activation step. We will show the exact trial dates, first payment date, monthly total and cancellation method before you agree to renewal. Cancel before the first paid renewal and pay £0.
No extra £9.99 payment at sign-up. The one-off registration and verification administration allocation is included within the first successful monthly payment, subject to completed work and refund rights. The first Mate Starter payment totals £19. Compare the two Hull pilot plans and their quote allowances and read the terms.
A valid card in the business or named tradesperson’s name will be required through secure Stripe setup at activation. Never send card details in a message.
Checks, membership and opportunities
See how the different checks work. A membership level does not certify skill. Membership does not guarantee leads, enquiries, work, jobs or earnings. The planned membership includes standard job introductions and messages without an extra platform fee for each one.
Founding 30: help shape GOT A MATE
The first 30 eligible, genuine trade businesses to register, including existing genuine registrations, can receive a Founding 30 badge after account and business review. Benefits include recognition as an early supporter, priority feedback opportunities and community recognition. Internal tests, staff and duplicate businesses do not qualify. The badge does not grant ownership, shares or verification status.
Annual membership rewards: Planned – Final Terms Pending.
