Bidology begins National expansion in Arizona. Taking on Angie’s List, Thumbtack, and others that have a “Pay to Play” Mentality

As a small business owner, Adam Younger became increasingly frustrated with paying membership dues, and purchasing credits to apply toward a service request, none of which guaranteed him business.

Gilbert, AZ, September 25, 2015 – As a small business owner, Adam Younger became increasingly frustrated with paying membership dues, and purchasing credits to apply toward a service request, none of which guaranteed him business. As such, he decided to re-engineer the way consumers connect with local service providers. Welcome to Bidology, the new local service marketplace that is taking on Angie’s List, Thumbtack, and others that have a “pay to play” mentality.


Bidology offers a comprehensive bidding platform for consumers looking to hire for services across the home improvement, automotive repair, health and beauty, professional, sporting, entertainment and other applicable categories.

The premise behind Bidology is simple. Consumers log onto www.bidology.com and type a brief description of the service they need completed and upload any relevant information to better explain to request to providers. Before submitting their request, the consumer then enters either a maximum bid amount they are willing to pay for the service to be completed, of they can simply request bids from local providers whose skillset matches their request. Once a service provider is hired, Bidology safely administers the consumer’s payment, and funds are released to the service provider once project is complete, or in milestone payments as mutually agreed upon. With Bidology, there is finally a platform for consumers to tackle their to-do list and stay within their budget.

True to Younger’s vision, Bidology does not charge membership fees or makes service providers apply credits toward a consumer request. Bidology only gets paid when the service provider gets paid, by deducting a small 2% fee from their payment.

“We could not be more pleased with the response since our July 1st Phoenix launch. The market is very hungry for a solution like this; a straightforward approach that empowers the consumer while providing the local business owner a platform to grow their business.” says Adam Younger, Founder and CEO of The Bidology Corporation. “Bidology’s mission is to build local communities by encouraging everyone to shop local. By not charging membership dues or requiring credits to apply toward requests, our service providers receive qualified leads at no charge; and we only get paid when they do! The concept is taking off like wildfire here in Phoenix, and we are truly blessed to be part of this movement.”

Since its July 1st launch, Bidology has enrolled more than 850 local providers awaiting service requests in the Phoenix market. Consumers simply submit their service request to start making connections at no charge. With its Phoenix market launch, Bidology is looking for user feedback so that they can continue to refine the offering in preparation of its national launch, beginning in October. Bidology is the new local service marketplace!
