Why Saboba

Sound familiar?

We built Saboba around four specific problems that anyone buying or selling runs into every week.

01

Three blurry photos

A two-line description and nothing else. You ask a question, no reply. You drive over, and it isn't what you pictured.

02

The seller is 40 minutes away

You find exactly what you wanted, then discover it's across town โ€” and you're moving a sofa.

03

The post that vanished

You saw it on someone's story. Two days later there's no story, no post, and no way to find the account again.

04

Your number is now public

One listing, and your phone rings with unknown numbers for months afterwards.

What it is

Between social feeds and classifieds

Social apps show you beautiful things you can't filter, can't compare, and can't find again two days later. Classifieds give you search and structure, but you're scrolling static photos and half-written descriptions. Saboba does both.

Video listings

Photos hide things.
Video doesn't.

On Saboba, sellers film a short clip of what they're selling โ€” you see the car actually running, the apartment from the inside, the sofa at its real size. Then you swipe to the next one.

  • Scroll and discover โ€” you'll find things you weren't even looking for.
  • Film it in seconds โ€” one clip tells buyers more than ten photos.
  • Message from the same screen โ€” like it? Tap and talk to the seller.

Listings with video get noticeably more interest. Try it on your first one.

Sometimes you want
the nearest one

Not the cheapest โ€” the closest. Saboba plots every listing where it actually is, with the price on the pin, so you can see what's available around you and agree on a handover that suits you both.

Your profile

Your account is
your shopfront

  • All your listings on a single page you can share with anyone
  • A verified badge that lifts buyer confidence
  • A visible track record that builds your reputation over time

FAQ

Questions people ask

Yes. Posting, browsing and messaging are completely free for individuals.

No. The deal happens directly between you and the other party, and Saboba takes no cut of it.

From the posting screen, upload a short clip from your phone the same way you'd add a photo. It appears in the video feed straight away, and listings with video get noticeably more interest.

Not at all โ€” photos alone are fine. We recommend video because it answers most of the questions buyers would otherwise message you about.

It plots listings where they actually are, so you can see what's available near you. Your own precise location is never shown to other people.

30 days, and you can renew it with one tap. That's what keeps everything on Saboba genuinely available.

In account settings, upload your ID or trade licence. We review it within one working day, and the badge is free.

Yes. In-app chat is the default way to get in touch, and your number stays private unless you choose to share it.

Of course. Get in touch and our team will set up your account and upload your first batch of listings with you.
