How Much Trader's Tender Can You Get in August 2026?
Players can earn 1,000 Trader's Tender through the regular August Trading Post cycle. The first 500 Tender comes from opening the Collector's Cache, while the other 500 comes from completing monthly Traveler's Log activities.
Players who own World of Warcraft: Midnight can also receive a one-time Tender bonus based on their edition: 500, 1,000, or 2,000 Trader's Tender. There is also a 500 Tender reward tied to Trading Post Enthusiast, the achievement for earning the monthly special reward 12 times.

August 2026 Trading Post Mounts
The mount lineup is the strongest part of the August shop. Hateforged Blazecycle is the most notable return because it originally came from an older promotion and is now available through the Trading Post.
| Mount | Type | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Hateforged Blazecycle | Mount | 500 Trader's Tender |
| Badlands Buzzard | Mount | 550 Trader's Tender |
| Grandmaster's Royal Board | Mount | 700 Trader's Tender |
If you are short on Tender, the best value depends on your collection. Mount collectors should prioritize the Blazecycle first if they missed the original promotion, while the Badlands Buzzard fits the month's western theme perfectly.
