Subscription vs. Free Account Features

Free Account Features

• Complete vendor dashboard access
• Unlimited product and service management (add, edit, delete)

• Shareable landing page URL for use on social media, business cards, and marketing materials

Subscription Account - Additional Benefits

No, there are no hidden costs. All vendors start with a free account and can choose to upgrade to a paid subscription at any time when the platform move to phase two. The only potential costs are:

• Subscription fees: If you choose to upgrade from a free account (see pricing details above)
• Administrative services: Optional product upload assistance provided by our team

Payment can be made through two methods:

Online Payment: Log into your vendor dashboard and select either Payfast or Yoco as your payment gateway. You'll be guided through the secure payment process step-by-step.

Manual Payment (EFT/Cash Deposit): Contact us at to request an invoice before making payment. The invoice contains our banking details and a unique reference number required for payment processing.

Billing occurs monthly. Full payment terms are available in our Terms and Conditions. For alternative billing arrangements, please contact us at .

Yes, as a vendor with an active subscription, you can update your billing information directly from your vendor dashboard.

We operate a no-refund policy on all subscription payments. Once payment is made, refunds are not available regardless of when you choose to cancel.

If you cancel during an active subscription period, your account will be immediately deactivated and your listings will no longer appear on our platform. This applies whether you've subscribed for one month or multiple months—even if you've only used a portion of your subscription period.

For example, if you've paid for a 3-month subscription but cancel after 6 weeks, your account will be deactivated immediately with no refund for the remaining time. (Though we can't imagine why you'd want to leave such a fantastic platform that connects you with eager customers!)

We encourage all vendors to carefully consider their subscription length before committing. Should you have any questions about our cancellation policy, please contact us at .

In the spirit of fair play (and keeping all our vendors equally happy!), we don't offer paid promotion or premium placement options. Every vendor gets an equal opportunity to shine based on the quality and relevance of their listings.

How Our Search Works: When users search for products, our algorithm uses a predefined ranking hierarchy to display the most relevant results. Products that best match the search criteria naturally rise to the top—it's a meritocracy based on relevance, not wallet size!

The Secret to Success: Here's where you have complete control—accurate, detailed product information is your ticket to top rankings. To maximize your visibility, ensure that you:

• Use clear, descriptive product names that customers would actually search for
• Provide comprehensive product descriptions with full details and specifications
• Select the correct product categories and classifications

Think of it this way: the more accurately you describe your products, the better our algorithm can match them to eager buyers. It's a win-win situation where quality listings get the spotlight they deserve!

Vendors have the ability to edit specific details of any products they have listed. When running a sale or special offer, we recommend clearly indicating the promotion on the product image. Vendors are responsible for managing their own product listings, including adding promotional tags (such as “Sale” or “Special Offer”) to images, which can then be re-uploaded for that specific product.

Customer support is available exclusively to vendors with active accounts. A contact number and email address will be provided to these vendors.

Vendors experiencing technical issues with their account or product listings can reach out for assistance. A contact number and email address will be provided to vendors with active accounts.

Please report any issues or complaints regarding other vendors or customers to .
