Matched to buyer requests
When someone posts what they need, strixbi ranks your listings and puts you in the quote — not just waiting for random views.
Sell on strixbi
More than a listing — get matched when buyers ask.
Kenya's classifieds apps charge for bumps and hope for views. strixbi also puts your inventory in front of buyers who post requests — with clear plans, local search, and a verified storefront.
Why sellers choose strixbi
Built for shops, traders, and side hustlers who want reach without burning cash on promotions every week.
Local-first discovery
Ward → constituency → county search means buyers near you see your stock before sellers three counties away.
Transparent plans
Start free with 10 listings. Upgrade to Pro Seller for 4,000 ads that recycle to the top every 48 hours.
Verified storefront
Phone-verified profile, trading location, and moderated images help buyers trust you before they chat.
In-app chat
Negotiate in one thread tied to the listing or quote. No juggling WhatsApp, SMS, and DMs.
Built for traders
Categories, filters, and listing fields that match how Kenyans actually sell — cars, phones, parts, and shop inventory.
