GENERAL INFORMATION

An online marketplace is a place where people buy from people. It’s like a local market, but with one difference: you can buy and sell online without even leaving a room. More than that, here you can also find a job or order services from Kenyans that are close to you.


Basically, whatever you need is here. Just type it in search :)

No, as we are not a shop. Bodaboda360 is the marketplace — here you can sell your stuff, buy goods from real people, find a job or services you need. Any deal you make, you make with people. And we exist just to help you find each other.

No, we don’t. But you can always discuss with the seller a comfortable way of delivering.

FOR SELLERS

At first, don't worry! If you've faced such a situation, we recommend:


1. Wait a bit while your ad is under review. It's quite possible that our moderators are checking your advert and it will appear in search results within a few hours.


2. Check your inbox. You will receive a notification when your advert goes live. If there is something you should edit, we'll specify that as well.


Important! If you make some changes to your advert, it will go for review again. It won't be shown in search results while we're checking it.


To check the statuses of all your ads or make edits to them, sign in to your Bodaboda360 account and click on "My Adverts".

We've prepared a few pieces of advice to help you sell like a pro:


1.Pay attention to details

Take relevant pictures of your goods, write a clear, detailed description and fill out all the fields in your profile. These will help your customers learn more about you and your product.


2.Make your advert as risk-free as possible

Remember that people are afraid of sending prepayments so we strongly recommend not to request them. Find a way to collaborate with delivery services that allow buyers to pay after they inspect the product and make sure it's what they want.


3.Stay in touch

Don't make potential buyers wait for your replies too long. Instead, be online or use Boost Packages to always get SMS notifications on new messages.


4.Pay attention to your rating

Feel free to ask your customers to leave feedback about their experience with you — the more positive reviews you have, the higher your chances to attract more buyers.


5.Use Premium Services to get up to 500x more customers!

If you really need to sell something fast, Premium Services are your way out! Whatever your item is, you’ll get the most effective and unbelievable promotion for it! To learn more about the different types of Premium Services we offer.
