FAQ

What is the Largest Classified Ads Website in South Africa?

The largest classified ads website in South Africa is Gumtree. Since the closure of OLX, Gumtree is the most popular choice. This website has been running since 2005 and is a great place to buy and sell just about anything. 

Where Can I Advertise My Products for Free in South Africa?

You can advertise your products for free on websites like Gumtree, and Facebook Marketplace. OLX used to be a popular choice but was recently closed in South Africa.

Why Did OLX Closed?

Naspers closed the South African online classifieds website OLX in 2022. The reason was to focus on their property and motor vehicle platforms, Autotrader and Property24.com.

What Has Replaced OLX?

Nothing has replaced the classified website OLX, but there are existing classifieds like Gumtree and Facebook Marketplace that are easy options. Alternatively, try smaller local classifieds to sell and buy online.

How Do I Make Safe Transactions on Classified Ads?

When making transactions on classified ads websites, it is important to be aware of scams. Be sure to check the seller’s feedback rating and only deal with sellers who have a good reputation. It is also a good idea to meet the seller to inspect the item before making a purchase. Remember, on Facebook Marketplace there are many scams. A seller can automatically mark items as sold, so the only way to check their validity is through their rating.

The team was very professional and helpful from start to finish. I would strongly recommend them - true value for money and family friendly values, too! Should I need to move in the future or suggest movers to any friends or family, I would definitely be suggesting the Gigantus Logistics team!
