How to Buy from Local Market

A step-by-step guide to purchasing goods from a local seller.

1

Find a listing

Browse or search Local Market and click any listing card to open the full detail page.

2

Review the listing

Read the description, check the photos, price, condition, and delivery options. If you have questions, click "Message seller" to contact them before buying.

3

Click "Buy now"

When you're ready, click the "Buy now" button. You'll be taken to the checkout page.

4

Enter your details and pay

Fill in your contact information, delivery address (if applicable), and any note to the seller. Enter your card details via Stripe's secure form and click "Pay".

5

Order confirmed

After payment you'll receive a confirmation email. Your order appears in My Account → Purchases. The seller is notified immediately and will update your order status as they prepare it.

6

Track your order

Check My Account → Purchases at any time, and open an order to see where it stands: Order placed, then Being prepared, then Completed once the seller marks it done — you won't be emailed when that happens. If an order never arrives or isn't as described, use "Report a problem" on the order page within 30 days of purchase. If you have questions, message the seller directly from My Account → Messages.

You're all set!
