How to Enter Buildner Competitions for Free (Architects’ Network Plus)

As of December 5, 2025, Buildner has partnered with Architects’ Network Plus. With the latest upgrade, all new Plus members are allowed to enter one Buildner competition for free each month. Below, we explain the process of how to obtain your membership and claim your free registration.

Step 1

Create an account on Architects' Network (https://an.pro/registration) to access the Buildner user panel, as it is available exclusively through an Architects' Network account login. Learn more about the connection between Buildner and Architects' Network here: https://architecturecompetitions.com/buildner-and-architectsnetwork

If you already have an Architects' Network Plus account, skip to Step 5.

Step 2 

Once you create your account on Architects’ Network, you can upgrade to Plus.

Step 3

Verify your identity on Architects' Network. Learn more about the verification process and its importance here: https://architecturecompetitions.com/buildner-and-architectsnetwork

Step 4

Now that you've successfully verified and upgraded your Architects' Network account to PLUS, head over to the Buildner website at https://architecturecompetitions.com/alogin

To log in, use your Architects' Network email address and password as your login credentials. This will grant you access to the Buildner user panel, where you can manage your competition registration and submissions. 

Step 5

After logging in to the Buildner user panel, click “Enter for free” and select your free competition for this month. You will be taken to a page showing all currently open competitions. You can choose one competition per month.

Once you choose your free competition, it will appear in your dashboard.
