Verified sellers

Stores can submit identity documents for review. Once approved they carry a badge you can see on every listing.

Conversations stay here

Chat is built in and attached to the item. If a deal goes wrong there is a record, which is exactly what off-platform messaging destroys.

Report anything

Every listing and store has a report link. Reports reach a moderator, and nothing is shared with the person you reported.

Why this exists A marketplace should feel like a good neighbourhood. You can see who you are dealing with, word travels when someone is straight with people, and the best things never make it to the shop window.

Why people stay

A marketplace is only
as good as its neighbours

Everything here belongs to somebody you can message, question and meet. That is the whole idea, and every feature we build has to earn its place against it.

An estimate from live listings, not a guarantee. Condition and photos move the price more than anything else.

The watch is authentic and complete. The meeting point changed once which cost me some time, but the communication stayed polite throughout.

The shutter count was verified in front of me and all the accessories were present. They even shared their editing presets afterwards. Above and beyond.

The laptop was sealed in its original box with the cycle count they stated. They were patient with all of my questions beforehand. Trustworthy.

Genuine leather, genuine box, genuine receipt. We met at the food court and the whole thing took fifteen minutes. Perfect.

The generator started first pull exactly as promised. They let me run it for ten minutes under load before I paid a cent. A solid seller.

The sofa was in great shape and the deep clean was genuine. The only reason for four stars is that we had to move the collection once. I would still buy from them again.

The fridge was demonstrated running before I paid and the interior was spotless as listed. They helped me load it into the bakkie too.

I bought the bicycle for my son. The seller adjusted the seat height for him on the spot and threw in the pump. A lovely experience.

The table is beautiful and solid. I took one star off only because arranging transport needed some back and forth, but the item itself is exactly right.

The flat matched the photographs and there were no surprise charges at signing. The listing said no hidden fees and they meant it.

Quick replies, clear directions to the meeting point, and the item was better than the photographs suggested. The smoothest deal I have done on any platform.

I arrived to inspect the car with my own mechanic and they welcomed it. Every fault was already written in the listing. That sort of honesty is rare.

Stores people come back to

Questions people ask first

If yours is not here, the assistant in the corner answers from the same set of notes.

Open a free store first, then post your item. Tap Sell in the top bar, fill in the title, category, price and location, and add photos — listings with several clear photos sell noticeably faster. Your listing goes live either straight away or after a quick review, depending on how this marketplace is configured.

Posting a listing is free. The only thing you can pay for is promoting a listing so it sits at the top of browse and search results, and that is always optional.

Open the listing and tap Chat. That starts a conversation attached to that item, so you both know what you are talking about. Keep the conversation on the site — if something goes wrong, a conversation here can be reviewed, and one on another app cannot.

Meet in a public place during the day, inspect the item before paying, and never send money in advance to somebody you have not met. Be wary of a price far below everything else, of pressure to hurry, and of anyone who wants to move the conversation to another app straight away. If something feels wrong, use the Report button on the listing.

Every listing has a Report link near the bottom, and every store has one in the menu beside the Follow button. Choose a reason, add anything useful, and send it. Reports are reviewed by our team and nothing is shared with the person you reported.

Open your dashboard, go to Verification, choose the kind of document you are sending and upload one clear photo or scan. Documents are stored privately and only seen by the review team. Once approved, the verified badge appears on your storefront and on all of your listings.

That thing in the cupboard
is worth something

Listing is free and takes about two minutes. Photograph it, price it, and let the people already searching find it.
