Start with a buyer invitation

Ask the buyer to send your private quotation link. Use that link to review the request; do not publish or forward it as a public listing.

Prepare a complete commercial quote

Check the specification and quantity. State currency, unit price, quantity tiers where relevant, MOQ, production lead time and delivery terms. Identify exclusions and requirements you cannot meet.

Review before submitting

Check your company details, prices, attachments and notes before submitting the quote to the inviting buyer. The buyer evaluates your response; MapleBridge does not certify supplier capability.

If the invitation does not work

Ask the buyer for a valid replacement link if it is missing, expired or unavailable. Creating a buyer RFQ is not a substitute for opening your supplier invitation.

Frequently asked questions

Can I sign up to receive buyer leads?

MapleBridge does not promise leads, matching or introductions. Suppliers respond to private invitations sent by buyers.

Who receives my quote?

The quote is submitted to the buyer who issued the invitation, not posted as a public supplier listing.

Where do I start without an invitation?

Contact the buyer and ask for your private quote link. Read the supplier guide for an overview.
