South Africa's first community-driven online store network for solo traders, home-based sellers, and township entrepreneurs.
SparzaFi is a South African community marketplace designed for ordinary people to run digital stores without needing capital, licenses, or large equipment. It helps informal trading become safe, verified, digital, and compliant.
To support small sellers with no shop, township vendors, home-based creators, side hustlers, and public-transport-based delivery earners.
SparzaFi formalizes informal business.
A simple 3-step process connecting sellers, buyers, and deliverers
Upload a profile, three introduction videos (30s intro, 2-min about business, 30s conclusion), and a catalog of product images with descriptions and prices.
Note: Videos introduce the seller, not individual products.
Click "Shop" to open a clean floating window showing the seller's banner, logo, product catalog, and chat button. Browse products, chat with sellers, and add items to cart.
No videos in the shop window β just images, prices, and easy shopping.
Registered deliverers (taxi commuters, bus riders, motorbike/bicycle couriers, or walkers) collect orders with pickup codes and deliver using delivery codes.
Double verification system ensures safe pickup and delivery.
Every seller uploads 3 videos to build trust before shopping begins
Sellers introduce who they are, creating an immediate personal connection with potential buyers.
Sellers explain what they sell, how they operate, their story, and why customers should trust them.
A final message about why supporting their business matters to the community.
Important: These videos promote the seller and their business, not individual product items. Product details are shown through images in the shopping catalog.
Community-powered delivery with double verification codes
All deliverers must register, provide SA ID, confirm their route, and pass verification.
Seller β Deliverer
