Meet ListHappy — the easier way to buy and sell locally, end to end — with built‑in support for the nonprofits your community relies on. Local resale shouldn’t mean endless “is this available?” messages, awkward cash meetups, or wondering if someone is serious. ListHappy is built around a guided flow that takes you from listing → offer → payment authorization (“escrow”) → pickup or delivery → payout. GIVE BACK (BUILT IN) Keep value in your neighborhood while clearing space at home. Choose nonprofits and causes you care about A portion of eligible sales can support local organizations automatically Make resale feel more meaningful—without extra steps See your impact as you sell CUSTOM GROUPS (SELL WITH YOUR PEOPLE) Sell in our public marketplace or join/create a custom groups to make selling feel more trusted — and more impactful. Share listings with communities you already belong to (schools, teams, parent groups, neighborhoods) Higher‑signal buyers, less noise Great for cause-driven group selling Groups can be public ( listings can be seen outside the group ) Or groups can be private ( listing visibility and transactions only for members of the group ) LIST IN SECONDS Take 3 quick pics, and let AI draft a listing Choose a vibe (like Playful, Premium, or Minimal) and get copy that sounds like you Spend less time typing, and more time finding the next item to list. FLOW + ESCROW (MORE CONFIDENT TRANSACTIONS) ListHappy acts like a mini-escrow service: - Buyer makes an offer or claims at the target price - Seller accepts the offer ( or declines ). Offers below a minimum amount are auto-declined. - Accepted ( or claimed ) transactions authorize payment first (so sellers know they’re real) - Payment authorization via Venmo, Apple Pay, Credit Card, or ListHappy balance - ListHappy holds the transaction to ensure buyer shows up! - Funds are captured when the handoff is confirmed - Sellers get paid out through the app to their Venmo account. Or they can keep a ListHappy balance towards other purchases. PICKUP OR DELIVERY Propose/confirm pickup times that actually fit real schedules Offer local delivery with Uber Direct when time is tight (where available) TRACK AND CASH OUT See your sales activity and transaction status Request payouts when you’re ready EXTRAS THAT HELP Optional item measurement tools so buyers know what they’re getting LET'S DO THIS Clear space. Keep good stuff in use. Support the causes you love. We’re rebooting local resale — so it finally works like it should.

Sell what you no longer need or offer a service you're good at. Add photos or a short video with Quick Capture and post instantly. SECURE PAYMENT: Every deal can be protected.

A small protection fee (4%, capped at $50) covers this service; sellers pay a 3% processing fee and receive payouts to their bank through Stripe. Secure Payment is for physical goods and in-person services exchanged between DYKSO users. You're always free to pay outside DYKSO, but only Secure Payment transactions are protected. STAY IN CONTROL: Your email and phone number are never shown to other users. Messages sent by email go through DYKSO's relay, so neither party sees the other's address.
