HOW IT WORKS

01

Create Your Account

Sign up for free in under a minute — all you need is your email or phone number.

PRO TIP Add a real profile photo so buyers know they can trust you.
02

Take Clear Photos

Snap bright, clear photos from a few angles. The better they look, the faster your item sells.

PRO TIP Daylight works best — and show any scratches or wear honestly.
03

Describe It Well

Keep it honest and specific. Mention the brand, size, condition, and why you're selling.

PRO TIP Use the words a buyer would type when searching for it.
04

Pick a Fair Price

See what similar items are going for and price yours to match. Leave a little room to haggle.

PRO TIP Set it slightly high so you can meet buyers in the middle.
05

Post and Share

Hit publish, then share your listing around. Reply quickly when buyers reach out.

PRO TIP Refresh your ad every few days so it stays near the top.
06

Meet and Get Paid

Meet somewhere busy and public, hand over the item, and take cash or mobile money. Done!

PRO TIP Always meet in a busy, public spot to stay safe.
