Why sell here
Your item gets found without paying to be seen.
Shopi is a feed, not a search box. People scroll it the way they scroll social apps, and listings near them come first — so your post reaches buyers who were not searching for it yet. Free to post, no commission, and every message lands with you.
A feed, not a search box
Buyers come across your item while scrolling, not only when they search the exact words.
Nearby listings appear first, from your neighbourhood outward
Buyers message you directly
No cart, no checkout, no agent in between. You answer, you negotiate, you agree the pickup.
One tap from the listing to a real conversation

From photo to published
Four steps, and your item is in front of nearby buyers.
There is no long form to fight with and nothing to pay. Create a free account, add your photos, let Shopi Agent draft the words, then publish. Your listing enters the local feed straight away.
01
Create your free account
Sign up with Google, with an email address, or with Apple on an iPhone. You do not need a registered business, a website or a verified phone number to sell here.
02
Add photos or a video
Shoot the item on your phone, or import a video you already made on TikTok. Clear media is what makes a buyer stop scrolling and open your listing.
03
Let Shopi Agent write it
Upload a photo and Shopi Agent drafts the title, description, category and specifications. You read it over and change anything you want before it goes live.
04
Publish and reply to buyers
Set your price in shillings, mark it negotiable if you like, and publish. Nearby buyers see it in the feed and message you inside Shopi, where you agree the price and the pickup directly.
What it costs you
No commission. No listing fees. Nothing deducted.
Shopi never sits inside your transaction. It does not process payments, hold your money or arrange delivery — which is exactly why there is nothing for it to take out of your sale.
KES 0
Commission and listing fees

Shopi is not just a search box. The feed learns what you open, save and message about, and puts listings near you first — from phones and furniture to fresh produce and cars.

- Real photos, videos, prices and locations from local sellers
- Tell Shopi Agent what you want in plain words instead of building filters
Direct chat
Deal with the person, not a checkout.
When you find the right item, message the seller inside Shopi. Price, payment and pickup are agreed between the two of you. Shopi never holds the money, so there is nothing to deduct and nobody to wait on.
- One tap from the listing to a real conversation
- Ask for more photos, negotiate, and choose where to meet
- The chat stays inside Shopi, so you keep a record of what was agreed
Shopi Agent
One photo. A finished listing.
The reason most people never post is the writing. Upload a photo and Shopi Agent drafts the title, description, category and specifications for you. Nothing publishes until you have read it and made it yours.
- Photo in, complete draft listing out
- Edit any word before it goes live — nothing is posted automatically
- Import a video you already made on TikTok instead of shooting again
