How it Works
Get Tender Every Month
At the first of each month, players with an active account in good standing will receive 500 Trader’s Tender automatically every month from a chest called the Collector’s Cache. If you don’t have active game time on your account or aren’t a subscriber at the start of a new month, don’t worry. Your Tender will be awarded on the first day of the month when you do have game time or an active subscription. This will be the same amount for everyone, regardless of how you pay for your game time.

The Traveler's Log
Complete monthly activities listed in the new Traveler’s Log. Each month features a rotating, themed set of activities. These activities provide the opportunity to earn up to 500 additional Trader’s Tender. There’s only a set amount of Tender you can earn each month through completing activities, so you won’t need to complete all the ones in the log each month. You’ll be able to pick and choose from a variety of fun in-game activities to easily earn Tender. Players can choose to earn by continuing to play the game as they already do, such as completing quests, competing in battlegrounds, participating in holiday activities, and even running Mythic+ dungeons. But you can also choose to take part in activities uniquely designed for the month.

Freeze an Item
Before the month comes to an end, if you haven’t purchased that one “must-have” item yet, don’t worry. You can “freeze” an item so you can purchase it later. When you freeze an item, it will stay available month over month until it is purchased or replaced.

If this month’s offerings didn’t have the items you wanted, you can hang on to your Trader’s Tender to spend later. It won’t go anywhere, and unspent Tender will continue to accumulate each month.

What a Tender Moment
As a way of saying “Thank you” to the community for continuing to play World of Warcraft with us, we are awarding a bonus 500 Trader’s Tender to players who purchase Dragonflight and add it to their account†. This bonus Trader’s Tender will also be rewarded retroactively to players who have already purchased Dragonflight. Players can collect this bonus Trader’s Tender from their Collector’s Cache.

Learn more about the Trading Post in our previously published news post on the official site.

*The Trading Post feature is not available in WoW Classic titles.
**Requires World of Warcraft Subscription or Game Time
***Requires Level 10 to access the Adventure Guide.
†Bonus Trader’s Tender is granted only once per Battle.net account.

    bleh, don't like them bringing back old stuff, I don't have the charger, but I still feel it's crap, why ever do any of their promotions? it'll just come for free if you chill out.

    Charger was Refer a Friend which, let's be honest, most people generally treated as just a shop mount they had to make a second account for.

    Frankly it being achievable in-game after all this time is more preferable
  1. Chilela's Avatar
    Time for my monthly worthless takes on the rewards!

    I hope you were saving Tender, because holy moly this month has some pricey goods.

    THE GOOD
    Royal Swarmer's Reins - This was originally going to be a "meh" due to the 800 Tender tag and being a recolor, but all three of its recolors require a fairly substantial amount of time and/or luck to get, so this is the easiest way to acquire this model, and yellow is a very nice color as well. So into the Good tier it goes. And it's not even the best mount here, because...
    Cindermane Charger - The mount itself is okay. The 900 Tender price is less okay. But making old RAF rewards available as Trading Post items has some pretty huge implications, in that any and all past and present RAF rewards may eventually be up for grabs here. Despite being the most expensive item in the set, it may still be the biggest steal.
    Ensemble: Vagabond's Carrot Trappings/Ensemble: Wanderer's Carrot Toppings - Orange is a pretty uncommon transmog color, and this would likely work well for Fire Mages/Destro Locks in particular. Admittedly, I have a pro-Orange bias. Otherwise this would likely go in Meh.
    Sentinel's Tower Shield - This is a very, very weak good, but it's something that's apparently original, and 150 is a humble price.
    Jewel of the Firelord - Cash Shop items being re-released is something I should probably object to, but being able to earn them via in-game content won't get complaints from me. 400 Tender makes me tempted to bump it down, though.
    Quawks - We already got two parrot mounts in-game, but both require a decent bit of luck to get, similar to the Royal Swarmer's Reins situation. As a bonus, I absolutely adore the (probably intentional) Donkey Kong Country series reference between this and Squawks.
    500 Free Tender - While technically not a part of the rewards, this is worth pointing out. I'm sure some more cynical individuals will call this a scheme to get more people to buy DF, while I, myself, do have some concerns that this does set a precedent in terms of acquiring Tender that could become an issue further down the road. Will that become the case? Maybe, maybe not. Insofar, Blizz hasn't done anything monumentally stupid with the Trading Post. In the meantime, may as well take the W.

    THE MEH
    Shifty Merchant's Tunic - This actually doesn't look too bad for a 50 Tender item, but shirts are a pretty "eh" slot.
    Magister's Jeweled Drape - See the above. I could see this working very, very well for some ranger-themed transmogs. It's borderline Good.
    Veteran Grunt's Chopper - This WOULD be good, had it not been a recolor of the Orgrimmar Axe, available via Garrisons. But 50 Tender isn't too bad a price for Alliance mains too lazy to get a Garrison up and running Horde side.
    Pustulent Demonheart Fetish - Eh, recolor, mid price tag at 150 Tokens. Not really much else to say on this one.
    Emberstone Dress - Might not be a bad pickup for Worgen players, but past that, not really impressed. Again, 150 Tender is modest.


    THE BAD
    Buzzworth - At first, I was going to impulsively call this a "meh" as a recolor of a pre-existing pet whilst still having a fairly hefty 600 Tender price tag, but then I dug a bit deeper. On the surface, it looks like it's nearly, if not perfectly identical in model to the already-available Seabreeze Bumblebee, turning this from a mid pickup to a borderline ripoff unless you're an established pet collector. I guess it COULD end up having a good statline and movepool, but I'm not counting on it.
    Flame-Forged Fel Fang - Given the 450 Tender tag, this is too samey compared to the Mythic version of Fang of the Pit for my tastes.
    Sunspire Battle Staff - Crystal-based staves are already a fairly common thing, so 500 Tender for another one is very, very steep. Not even the Orange bonus can save it here.
    Soulburner Bardiche - Like the item apparently being its own thing (and having shades of Legion), don't like the 550 Tender tag for a single weapon transmog.
    Ensemble: Helarjar Berserker Warplate - Another month, another overpriced Transmog set, even if it looks better than the IE set it's a recolor of.

    This month would be a "Get the Charger" month if I was buying here. Maybe grab the Swarmer mount if I had plenty of Tender saved, or even one of the orange cloak mogs. Overall, this feels like a very good month, even with the few duds.

    It reduces FOMO a bit, which isn't a bad thing. I say this as someone who grabbed the Cash Shop headpieces before they were put into the metaphorical vault.
  1. Phaelia's Avatar
    As a predominantly horde player, it’s a little bit insulting they’re adding another wasp version of the black empire models instead of letting horde players have a honey bee mount. This continues to be one of the only faction specific unique mounts whilst every other mount models are available to alliance players
  1. Ielenia's Avatar
    Not one, not two... but three mounts in June's Trading Post? I know one of them is a 1000 Tender reward, but still. Damn, it's gonna be a pricy month. I'm glad I saved a lot from May.

    I wonder if those who got 500 bonus Tenders back when the Trading Post went online (precisely for purchasing Dragonflight) will also get 500 Tenders this June or if that first 500 bonus Tenders count as the "once per account" restriction.

    Not a mount collector so this month is awful, the tmogs are boring and ugly. Ill get the cloak and shield I guess everything else is worthless. We need the blood troll tmog...

    From the way it's worded, I would presume that it's an addition. Guess we'll see once tomorrow rolls around.

    I'd argue this is simply too much good stuff in one month. I'm going to have to make some hard decisions prioritizing this one and will definitely use the freeze.

    Well since I didn't chill out and did the promotion now I don't have to waste tendies on it

    It reduces FOMO a bit, which isn't a bad thing. I say this as someone who grabbed the Cash Shop headpieces before they were put into the metaphorical vault.
    I enjoyed reading your writeup, and I agree on most of the items. Especially the transmog feels like a ripoff this month with all the other options competing for the 1000 tenders we get.
    I'd probably move the Soulburner Bardiche up to meh as well, especially if it wasn't such a hotly contested month. The sunspire battle staff can suck it, the similar models ingame both come cheap and in my opinion all look better, I'm not even sure I'd pay 100 for that.

    About the FOMO, yeah, I'm sure you are right, the way I see it though is why use the cash shop or their promotions at all if we'll just get it for watching twitch or getting some tender. Previously I bought things I thought were absolutely amazing, if they were meh I might if I found something they'd go with, like a transmog or something, and I never touched stuff I thought looked bad. Now it'll have to be extra super special amazing for me to buy it since I'm going to get it for free later anyways.

    Good month for saving lots of tenders! Barely anything worth getting, except the cloaks. Hopefully next month will see the blood troll transmog
  1. ImTheMizAwesome's Avatar
    I wish this monthly reward had a transmog set reward instead of another mount, especially a recolor of existing mount.
  1. JSoup's Avatar
    That charger is a former refer-a-friend mount, nice. Kind of hoping that fire dog whatever it was called from the HotS promotion will be up eventually. I never got it cause I just couldn't be arsed.

    Edit: Didn't even see the new cape/cowl color. Really enjoying these.

    I actually think this is the worst month so far.

    I would never use any of that.

    To each their own I guess.

    3 mounts total this month :O nice nice. I've been saving my tendies for a month like this \o/
