About

For You

Buy and sell with people you can trust. For You is a marketplace built for Ghana, where shops go live, buyers bid in real time, and every payment is protected until the order actually arrives. WHY YOUR MONEY IS SAFE When you pay, the money is held — not handed straight to the seller. It is released only once you confirm your order arrived. If something goes wrong before then, the funds are still there to recover. Buying from a shop you have never used before stops being a leap of faith. SHOP HOW YOU LIKE • Browse a feed of shops, reels, live streams and auctions • Find sellers near you, or follow the ones you love • See real prices, real stock and real sold counts before you buy WATCH LIVE, BID LIVE Sellers go live to show what they have. Bid on a live auction with a countdown running, buy it now before someone else does, and chat with the seller while you watch. ASK FOR WHAT YOU WANT Cannot find it? Post a request with your budget and let sellers come to you with offers. Negotiate the price in the app instead of losing it in a DM thread. PAY THE WAY YOU ALREADY DO Mobile money, card or bank transfer. Top up a wallet or pay per order. SELL FROM YOUR PHONE For You is a full shop, not a listing board: • List products with photos, sizes, colours and stock • Go live and sell to an audience • Run auctions with automatic bidding • Manage orders, deliveries and refunds in one place • Track earnings, see what is held and withdraw to MoMo or bank • Get paid when your buyer confirms delivery BUILT FOR HOW GHANA ACTUALLY TRADES Prices in cedis. Mobile money first. Sellers you can message, meet or have deliver. Delivery arranged between you and the seller when that suits you both. Download For You and start shopping — or open your shop today.
