Is Announce free to use?
Yes! You can post up to 5 listings for free, each valid for 7 days. Premium listings and other
services are affordably priced.
How much does it cost to post a property?
Just ₹10 per listing. Viewing a contact costs ₹5, and you can repost expired listings for ₹7.
This comes into picture beyond the free limit.
What happens when a listing expires?
After the end date and time, the post goes offline, and won't appear in global listings. You can
find them under your "In Active" tab under "My Posts". You can pay the nominal fee and re-activate
it.
What kinds of listings can I post?
Anything community-friendly: home services, gigs, rentals, personal items, help wanted, part-time
jobs, local events, and more. We have 32 categories that you can use to post listings.
How long do listings stay visible?
All listings expire automatically after 7 days to keep the feed fresh and active. Paid listings can
stay active upto 30 days from the time of listing going live.
Is this app location-based?
Yes, listings are shown based on your chosen locality — usually within a 10km radius. Announce is a
Location Based Service, hence, it uses your approximate location data to determine what to serve
you.
Is my location tracked or stored?
No. Your location is only used to enable nearby search. It is not tracked or saved.
How are users verified?
Every user is SMS-authenticated to ensure safety and reduce fake profiles or spam. This allows the
platform to hold user's accountable for what they post.
Can I post for a business or service I offer?
Absolutely! Announce is a great way for local service providers to promote their business directly
to people nearby. You can post up to 5 listings for free, each valid for 7 days.
Is my data safe?
Yes. Your personal information is not sold or shared. Payments are securely processed, and your
contact details are shared only when you initiate it.
How does payment work? Is it safe?
We use RazorPay to handle secure payments via UPI, credit/debit card, and net banking. You can be
absolutely relaxed about the security of your payment process.
