User Guide

The worldwide ads-posting & brand-building platform.

Small shops, individuals, service providers, job seekers and even mid-size brands are largely invisible online — Google & Meta Ads are priced for enterprises, and Amazon / OLX crowd every seller into a faceless list. Adukoo gives everyone their own storefront, their own brand and their own audience — free, in 180+ countries. Post an Ad in 60 seconds. Open a branded Digital Store. Hire, sell, promote, or build a global brand — same platform, same yellow tick, same fair discovery.

What Adukoo is

A worldwide ads-posting + brand-building platform. Post an Ad, open a branded Digital Store, hire, promote or run a campaign — from any of 180+ countries.

Whom it helps

Individuals, corner shops, small & medium businesses, service providers, real-estate agents, job seekers, affiliates, global brands and enterprises. Every seller type has its own form + category.

The problem we solve

Google + Meta Ads are priced for enterprises. Amazon & OLX drown small sellers in a faceless list. Facebook Marketplace caps you at your city. The small player has no brand, no audience, no voice.

Why brand-building matters

Every Adukoo listing shows your Name, ratings, verified badge and Digital Store. Buyers trust a brand 3× more than an anonymous listing — and repeat customers stick with brands they recognise.

Who Adukoo is really for

Your storefront stays put. The world walks in.

Adukoo isn't another delivery app or middleman. It's a visibility layer that turns your existing presence — a shutter on a street, a factory on the outskirts, a boardroom in a tower — into a signal buyers & clients can actually find.

Local shops · Offline stores · Outlets

The shop doesn't move. The footfall comes to you.

You're a bakery on 5th cross. A hardware store off the highway. A boutique upstairs from a chai shop. Adukoo puts your inventory on a phone in someone's hand three blocks away — and quietly points them to your door.

  • Zero commission, zero delivery hassle — customers still walk in and pay you directly.
  • Show today's stock, today's prices, today's offers — refresh in seconds.
  • Direct chat + call — no algorithm between you and the buyer next door.

Enterprises · MNCs · Brands

Stop chasing pitches. Get found by clients who need what you build.

Your capabilities deck is buried in someone's inbox. Your case studies live behind a login. Adukoo flips it — a procurement head in Nairobi, an OEM in Osaka, a systems integrator in São Paulo can find you the moment their RFP kicks off.

  • Publish capabilities, product lines, hiring needs — indexed and discoverable across 180+ countries.
  • Verified-brand badge + analytics on who's reaching out and from where.
  • One profile, every buyer surface — B2B RFPs, B2C shoppers, and talent all in the same funnel.

All we ask is that you post, and participate. The visibility, the traffic and the trust — that's our job.

The basics

Get started in 4 simple steps

Works exactly the same on the website, the Android app, and — on iPhone / iPad — the web app installed via Add to Home Screen.

1. Create your account

Sign up with email + phone in under 30 seconds. No verification needed to browse — just to post. Google sign-in works too.

2. Browse or search

Type what you want in the search bar (e.g. 'iPhone 15', 'plumber near me', 'Tata Ace rental'). Filter by category, price, condition, city, pincode, or radius.

3. Chat with the seller

Tap 'Chat with seller' on any listing. Share photos, your location, and finalise the deal. We never expose your phone unless you choose to share it.

4. Save what you love

Tap the heart on an ad or a store to bookmark it. Find everything in /wishlist anytime.

5. Subscribe to sellers you trust

Spotted a seller you'd buy from again? Hit Subscribe on their ad or Digital Store. Their new ads show up in your Alerts in real time — no need to keep refreshing the feed.

6. Swipe through ads, no jumping back

Inside any ad, use the < / > chevrons (or swipe left / right on mobile) to jump to the next or previous ad in the same category — no need to bounce back to the feed.

For individual sellers

Sell anything in your pocket

Old phone, scooter, sofa, services — list it in 60 seconds and reach buyers nearby or worldwide.

Post your first ad

Tap '+ Post', choose 'List an Ad', add up to 3 photos, set a price, pick category + condition (New/Used), fill location. Ads go live instantly — no approval queue.

Post my first ad

Boost your ad

Tap 'Boost' on any ad you own and pick how long: 7, 15 or 30 days. Boosted Ads are pinned to the top of category browse pages for the duration you choose. Boost is currently available at no charge during our launch period.

30-day auto-expiry · 1-tap Republish

To keep the marketplace fresh, every listing automatically hides from public feeds 30 days after you posted it. It stays visible in your My Listings with a 'Republish for 30 days' button — one tap brings it back to the top of the feed. We'll also send you an alert a couple of days before it expires.

Multiple Digital Stores · move Ads between them

One Adukoo account can own as many Digital Stores as you like (think: separate brands or pop-up storefronts). When you post an Ad, pick which store it belongs to — or list it as a Personal Ad with no store attached. Already posted? Use the 'Store' button on any row in My Listings to re-attach or detach an Ad anytime. Your store name is YOUR branding choice; it is never auto-filled from your username.

Contact details are locked to your identity

When you post an Ad, your Name, Mobile number, and Email are read-only — they always match the verified account you signed up with. This keeps buyers safe from listings that impersonate someone else. Need to change them? Update your profile and they'll flow through to every new Ad automatically.

Stay on top of replies

Every new chat message and contact request lands in your Alerts bell. Reply quickly — fast sellers close 4× more deals.

Get the Verified badge

Submit a quick ID + selfie. Verified sellers get a navy badge across every listing — buyers trust you 3× more.

  • You can't post the exact same URL twice — edit the existing deal instead.
  • Every deal carries a visible SPONSORED ribbon (ASCI / FTC compliance).
Open for Work

Looking for a job? Post yourself.

Adukoo's Open for Work category lets candidates post a short profile + resume so verified employers can find them. No recruiter fees, no listing fees.

  1. 1. Go to Post → Open for Work.
  2. 2. Upload a passport-size photo (mandatory). Adukoo auto-crops it to the standard 3:4 ratio and adds basic anti-screenshot protection + a watermark so casual saves are blocked.
  3. 3. Add a brief intro (with one-click AI polish), pick skills and open-to-work locations from curated lists (anything not in the list can be added as "Others"), set your current company, total experience in years + months, and an optional expected-salary band.
  4. 4. Attach your resume (PDF / DOC / image, mandatory). Your resume, phone and email stay HIDDEN from anyone except admin-approved employers.
  5. 5. Publish — verified employers can now search for you by skill / location / experience.
Your data is safe. Adukoo does NOT sell, share, or train AI on your details. Resumes are only visible to employers we've verified by their company domain. Candidate photos are protected against right-click / drag / long-press save and viewers can report stolen or mismatched photos in one tap.
Disclaimer: You are posting your photo, resume and personal details on a public listing platform at your own risk. Adukoo does not verify claims, does not represent you to recruiters, and accepts no liability for downstream outcomes. Post only what you are comfortable making public.
Employers

Hiring? Get Employer-Verified.

To protect candidates, only admin-approved employers can see resumes and contact details on Open-for-Work ads. Verification is one-time and usually takes ~24 hours.

  1. 1. Sign in to Adukoo with your official company email (Gmail / Yahoo / Outlook are NOT accepted — must be a domain your company owns, e.g. you@yourcompany.com).
  2. 2. Visit /employer/apply, fill in: company name, your designation, company website, optional LinkedIn + GST/CIN.
  3. 3. Our admin team reviews your application — usually within 1–2 working days.
  4. 4. On approval you instantly get the Employer-Verified badge — unlocks resume previews, candidate search and full contact info on every Open-for-Work listing.
  5. 5. You can also post Jobs (vacancies) directly under the Jobs category — title, role, location, salary range, application link.
