How to claim your business on GotAPal (and why it's free)

If you work in the trades in the UK, there is a good chance your business is already on GotAPal. We build listings from public records so customers can find local trades, which means your details may be live even if you have never signed up. Claiming that listing takes a few minutes, costs nothing, and puts you in control of how you look to customers.

Your business might already be listed

GotAPal lists over 100,000 UK trades, built from public records so homeowners can search by trade and area. If yours is one of them, the listing sits there as a placeholder until you claim it. Claiming simply proves you are the owner and hands you the keys, so you decide what it says, which services you offer, and how customers reach you.

How to claim your listing, step by step

• Find your business on GotAPal. Search your business name, trade and area to see if a listing already exists.
• Tap claim. Hit the claim button on your profile to start the process.
• Confirm it is you. Verify by email or phone so we know the listing is in the right hands.
• Fill out your profile. Add photos of your work, the services you offer, and the areas you cover.
• Verify your insurance. Confirm your cover to become a Trusted Pal and earn the verified badge.

What you get when you claim

Claiming turns a bare listing into a shopfront that works for you:

• A proper profile you control, with your services, photos and service areas.
• Real reviews from customers, so your track record does the talking.
• Enquiries with no lead fees, so you never pay to be contacted.
• A free digital contact card and QR code to share on the van and on your quotes.
• The Trusted Pal badge once your details are verified.

Why it is free

Listing and being contacted on GotAPal is free because the core service is meant to be. We make our money from a few optional upgrades, not from charging you to appear or selling your details as leads. If you are curious how that adds up, read how does GotAPal make money.
