About Loopzie

South Africa's first second-hand marketplace built on end-to-end trust

Loopzie is a new digital marketplace in South Africa built on a simple idea: buying and selling second-hand should feel as safe as buying new. It is the country's first online platform to prioritise end-to-end trust across the entire used items market — with verified video listings, escrow-protected payments, and automated locker delivery built into every trade. Where traditional classifieds leave room for fake listings and unverified sellers, Loopzie closes those gaps with mandatory safety steps, so both sides can trade with confidence.

Our Mission

To make buying and selling used items online in South Africa genuinely safe — by replacing handshakes, guesswork and blind trust with verified video evidence, escrow-protected payments and automated courier logistics. Every feature we ship exists to remove a specific risk from the second-hand trading experience.

Our Vision

To become South Africa's most trusted second-hand marketplace — the default place where people sell used goods online without fear, and where buying pre-owned items feels as safe as buying new. We want to set a new national standard for safe second-hand trading that other platforms are measured against.

Frequently asked questions

What is Loopzie?+
Loopzie is a South African online marketplace for buying and selling second-hand items. Unlike classifieds sites, every listing on Loopzie is backed by a compulsory in-app video, payments are held in a neutral escrow account, and delivery is handled through PUDO lockers or door-to-door courier.
Is Loopzie safe to buy and sell on?+
Yes. Loopzie was built specifically to make second-hand trading safe. Sellers must record a live 30-second video of the item in-app (no stock photos), buyers pay into a bank-backed escrow account via TradeSafe, and funds are only released to the seller once the buyer confirms the item matches. Buyers and sellers never share personal contact details.
How does Loopzie work in South Africa?+
You create an account, verify your identity, and either list an item or browse listings. When a sale happens, the buyer pays into escrow, the seller ships via a PUDO locker or courier within 48 hours, and the buyer has 30 hours after delivery to inspect the item. If everything checks out, funds are released automatically. If not, Loopzie refunds the buyer.
How do I sell used items online in South Africa safely?+
On Loopzie, you list your item with a mandatory in-app video showing its real condition, set your price, and choose locker or door-to-door delivery. Once a buyer pays, you get a shipping deadline, drop the parcel at any PUDO station, and receive your payout once the buyer confirms delivery. Your phone number and address are never shared with the buyer.
What makes Loopzie different from other second-hand platforms in SA?+
Loopzie is the first South African marketplace to build safety into every step instead of leaving it optional. Live video proof is required on every listing, escrow is standard rather than opt-in, delivery is automated through PUDO lockers, and identity verification is enforced. No handshakes, no meetups, no blind trust.
