List your market stall online in Tanzania for free, with buyers messaging you directly

Your regulars already know which corner you work. This is for everybody else: the buyer from another region, the customer who lost your number, the one who was told about you and could never find you again.

List your stall for free

Free to list. No account, no card, and no commission on anything you sell.

What a listing replaces

A number written on the back of a receipt, and a photograph of your goods that disappeared into a status the next morning. Your page stays put, keeps the pictures, and can still be found by somebody who only half remembers what you were called.

  • Your own page with its own web address
  • Photos of your goods, your shop or your work
  • A real page search engines can read, not a photo in a group
Photo
Your listing: a photo, your category and town, reviews from customers, and a message button.

Nothing new to learn

One short form, filled in once. No account, no password, nothing to log back into. Enquiries arrive in the WhatsApp already open on your phone and you answer them the way you answer everything else.

  • No account and no password, just one short form
  • A WhatsApp button that opens a chat with you
  • Free to list, with nothing to pay later

The quiet week is the one to do this in

Listings are checked before they go live, so there is a wait between sending the form and appearing on the site. That makes a slow afternoon the right time to do it and the middle of a rush the worst. Whichever season matters most to your stall, whether it is the visitors in the middle of the year or the festive weeks at the end of it, you want to be up before it arrives rather than filling in a form with customers standing in front of you.

One tap from your listing opens a chat, on the WhatsApp you already use.

You get paid exactly as you do now

Nothing changes about how money reaches you. You send your mobile money details in the chat yourself, and no mobile money payment ever passes through us. There is no commission because there is nothing for a commission to be taken from.

  • No commission on anything you sell
  • Free to list, with nothing to pay later

Photos of the work do the deciding before anybody types a word.

Questions

Do I need a website?

No. The listing is what customers find, and that is the entire idea.

What will it cost me?

Nothing to list and no commission on what you sell.

Can somebody fill the form for me?

Yes, as long as the WhatsApp number on it is the one you actually use.
