## What is Hatiwal?

Hatiwal (هټیوال) is Afghanistan's local bazaar on your phone. Buy and sell with people near you: no online payment, no delivery, no middlemen. Find what you want, chat with the seller in the app, and meet in person to make the deal.

NEW IN 1.1.8
• Add a short video to your listing (up to 60 seconds). Your phone makes it light, so it uses little data. Your listing goes live at once while the video uploads.
• Buyers see the ▶ Video button on the main photo and watch it full screen in one tap.
• Shops can show up to 5 photos and a video of their store.

WHY HATIWAL
• Local and in person: arrange a meetup and pay however you agree.
• Free: posting, browsing and chatting cost nothing.
• In your language: English, Pashto (پښتو) and Dari (دری), with right-to-left screens.
• Trust: seller profiles, verified badges, ratings and reviews, and easy reporting.
• Shops: open your shop, add your team, and sell as your business.

SELL IN MINUTES
1. Take photos (and a short video) of your item.
2. Add a title, price and city.
3. Publish. Buyers message you in the app.

BUY SAFELY
Meet in a public place, check the item before you pay, and keep the chat inside Hatiwal.
