Three simple steps
No app to download and nothing new to learn. It all happens on WhatsApp.
1
Take a photo
On the phone they already have. If the light isn't right, it says so and asks for another.
2
Say what it is
A short voice note in any of eight languages: what it is, what it's made of and what it costs.
3
We write it up
We turn it into a proper listing, and a trained Sahayak checks it before it goes live.
