What is F-Biz Market?

A public directory where nearby buyers can see shops and stock, then pay when they collect—not inside the app checkout.

Do I need a separate website?

No. If your shop is on F-Biz with public listing enabled, Market can show your shelf from the same inventory.

Guides / F-Biz Market

Get discovered on F-Biz Market

Customers nearby can find what you actually have in stock — because your F-Biz inventory becomes your online shelf. No website to build. No duplicate catalogue. Message, visit, pay at the counter. Free and Pay As You Go shops can list too — Market is part of running F-Biz, not a separate subscription.

F-Biz Market hub showing live directory listing — Turn on your listing, preview your shop page, and share the link with customers.

How it works for merchants

Publish products from your existing inventory—no duplicate catalogue
Customers browse on f-biz.fayvad.com/market
They ask, reserve, WhatsApp you, or leave a review (one per phone)—they do not pay inside the app
You fulfil at the counter with normal F-Biz checkout (cash, M-Pesa, or credit)
Reply to or hide reviews from Market inbox; F-Biz can remove abusive ones

Who can appear on Market

Free, Pay As You Go, Team, Desktop — shop link and directory when your business is entitled
Active — Free with an active account; PAYG with activity this month (top-up, spend, or monthly unlimited); Team/Desktop with a paid period still current; Own it with maintenance current
60-day Market grace — if you become inactive, your listing stays visible for 60 days, then is hidden (not deleted). Reactivate to restore discovery
Keep stock updated in the app so the shelf online matches the shelf in the shop

Setup checklist

Complete your business profile (name, area, optional public phone)
Mark products as published to Market from inventory
Toggle List my shop online in Market settings
Preview the shop page and share the link with regular customers
Respond to inquiries from Sell → Inquiries (service businesses), keep booked clients on Sell → Bookings, or reply on WhatsApp

Why pay-on-pickup

Kenyan MSME trust is built face-to-face. F-Biz Market is discovery and conversation—not another payment gateway taking a cut. You keep your M-Pesa till, your credit customers, and your counter workflow.
