π§βπ€βπ§ For Customers
π Discover Shops, Products & Services Nearby βΆ
Once your location is set, the home page shows businesses, "Shop by Category" rails, and Trending / New / Order Again sections β all sorted by distance from you. Search by business name, product, or area at any time.
ποΈ Order Products βΆ
Add priced products to your cart and check out. Pay the business directly via their UPI QR code, upload your payment screenshot as a receipt, and the order moves from Awaiting Payment β Receipt Submitted β Confirmed. Track every order under "My Orders".
π Book Services & Appointments βΆ
Services with a set duration show a "Book Now" button instead of Add to Cart. Pick a date, optionally your preferred staff member or resource (chair/room/table), then an available time slot β all generated automatically from the business's working hours. Manage upcoming visits under "My Bookings".
β Reviews & Ratings βΆ
Read what other customers say about a business before you visit or order, and leave your own rating and review afterwards to help others nearby.
β€οΈ Follow & Reorder βΆ
Follow your favourite shops to keep up with them, and use "Order Again" right from the home page to quickly repeat a past order without hunting for the business again.
ποΈ Coupons, Offers & Loyalty Rewards βΆ
Apply coupon codes at checkout, grab running offers, and redeem loyalty rewards that businesses set up for their regular customers β all free to use as a customer.
π Order & Booking Notifications βΆ
Get notified the moment a business confirms your payment, updates a booking, or replies to your review β so you're never left wondering about the status.
π€ Free Customer Account βΆ
Registering (or just logging in) saves your location, address and order/booking history permanently, so you don't have to set your location or details every single visit.
π’ For Business Owners
π’ Free Business Registration β Any Scale βΆ
From a road-side stall to a large company, registration is free. Pick your Business Type and Category, add your details, and submit β an admin verifies every business (selfie + ID proof, plus GST/registration docs for Medium/Large scale) before it goes live, keeping the directory trustworthy for customers.
π Multiple Branches & Physical Locations βΆ
Add as many branches as you run. Within a branch, build a physical location tree β floors, rooms, tables, chairs, staff β from scratch or with a one-click starter template (Retail, Clinic, Restaurant, Hotel, Salon, Cinema/Event, Warehouse), and Bulk-Add many at once (e.g. "Deluxe Room 101β110" or a list of staff names).
π Products & Services Catalog βΆ
Add items manually, or use "Pick from Master Catalog" to search, browse by category, or scan a barcode β it auto-fills the name, category, unit and description in a couple of taps. Every item you add also becomes searchable in the shared catalog for other businesses, so the whole platform gets faster to use over time.
π¦ Inventory & Stock Management βΆ
Track stock with a full ledger, record purchases from suppliers, transfer stock between your own branches, and manage your supplier list β so you never oversell an item that's actually out of stock.
π₯ Staff Accounts βΆ
Give staff members their own login to see and manage the bookings, orders and tasks assigned specifically to them, without giving them full access to your business settings.
π Service Bookings, Your Way βΆ
Set a duration and buffer time on any service to turn it into a bookable appointment, optionally linked to specific staff or resources (e.g. a Haircut linked to every chair and stylist at once via "Select All"). Confirm, complete or cancel bookings from your dashboard.
π³ Orders & QR Payment Collection βΆ
No payment gateway or transaction fees β upload your own UPI/Bank QR code once, customers pay you directly and upload a receipt, and you Confirm or Reject each payment yourself from "Orders".
ποΈ Coupons, Offers & Loyalty Rewards βΆ
Run discount coupons and time-bound offers to attract new customers, and set up a loyalty rewards program to keep regulars coming back.
π Featured Listing (Premium) βΆ
Boost your business with priority placement in nearby search and Trending sections, so more customers around you see you first.
π¨ Digital Welcome Kit (Premium) βΆ
Auto-generate a ready-to-use business card, poster, festival greeting, price tag, product catalogue and social media kit for your listing β download and share instantly, no designer needed.
π Referral Program βΆ
Share your listing link or QR code directly, and refer other businesses to join the platform.
π Get Discovered β Trending & New βΆ
Businesses that customers view and order from more often automatically surface in "Trending Near You"; freshly registered ones get a "New This Week" spot β real visibility based on real engagement, not just who paid the most.
β Frequently Asked Questions
β Is it free to use? βΆ
Completely free for customers β always. For businesses, listing your business, adding products/services, bookings, orders, coupons and staff accounts are all free. A few optional extras like Featured Listing and the Digital Welcome Kit are premium add-ons for businesses that want extra visibility or ready-made marketing material.
π How long does business verification take? βΆ
After you submit your selfie and ID proof (plus GST/registration documents for Medium/Large scale), an admin reviews it. Your business stays private until approved, and you can see the status β Pending, Rejected with a reason, or Verified β right on your dashboard.
π Do I need to share my location to use the site? βΆ
It's optional but recommended β it's how "nearby" search, distance sorting and Trending Near You work for customers, and how your business shows up for the right nearby customers. You can always type your address in manually instead of using GPS.
π³ How do payments work β is there a gateway? βΆ
There's no payment gateway integration. A business uploads its own UPI/Bank QR code once; customers pay directly via any UPI app and upload the receipt, and the business owner confirms or rejects it. No transaction fees to the platform.
π¬ Can I manage multiple branches or a franchise? βΆ
Yes β add as many branches as you like under one business account, each with its own address, map location, and physical location tree (rooms/chairs/tables/staff).
π Can customers book appointments, not just buy products? βΆ
Yes β mark any item as a Service with a duration, and customers get a "Book Now" flow with date, staff/resource and time-slot selection, generated from your working hours automatically.
π Is my data and account secure? βΆ
Yes β forms are protected against forged cross-site submissions (CSRF tokens), uploaded images are validated by their real content (not just file extension), and sessions use secure, HttpOnly cookies.
π§© What if a form is missing a field my business needs? βΆ
Admins can add custom fields (text, number, date, dropdown, checkbox, etc.) to the Business, Branch, or Product/Service forms at any time from the Universal Field Manager β no code changes needed, and it appears immediately for everyone.
