Business Listing
A shopfront page: logo, contact details, map and up to 24 products.
What it is
A shopfront page for your business at /business/your-business-name, listed on the Business Listings board. Logo, a short bio, every way to reach you, your address and map, your social profiles, and up to 24 products or services with photos and prices.
What it does for your business
- Customers contact you directly — website, email, phone, WhatsApp and map buttons in one "Get in touch" box at the top. No commission, no middleman.
- Found by people near you — the board shows a member's own country and region first, and can be filtered by place.
- A page of your own on search engines — public, at your business's name, and in our sitemap.
- A link to your website and shop, plus a buy button on every product that goes where you sell it.
- Opens Business Cross-Promotion — a live Business Listing lets you put a card on that board and partner with other businesses for free.
What goes on the page
- Identity: business name, logo, a short bio and your website.
- Contact: email, phone and WhatsApp — each optional.
- Where you are: your address in your own words, a map link you choose (the Share link from Google Maps works), and your country and region for the board's filter.
- Social profiles: Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube and more.
- Products and services: up to 24, each with a name, a description, up to 3 photos, 3 short specs, a price with your own label ("From", "Per hour"), the currency, a link and your own button words ("Book a lesson", "Buy now").
What it costs
| How long it stays up | Price |
|---|---|
| 3 months | 2,000 coins |
| Lifetime* | 10,000 coins |
Pay in Store Coins, Time Coins or both. Buying in the store needs a Premium or Elite membership. "Lifetime" means for as long as Help Barter exists.
Step by step: from buying to live
- Open it in the store
Store → Business Listing. The page shows what is included and every run on offer.
- Choose how long, and buy
Pick a run, pick how to pay (Store Coins, Time Coins or both) and confirm. You now hold one Business Listing credit — nothing is public yet.
- Write it
Go to My listings and press List your business. Add your logo and details first, then your products one by one — blank product rows are simply left out. Writing costs nothing more: your credit pays for it.
- Submit it for review
Admin team monitors all listings. You can still change a listing for free while it waits.
- It goes live
You get a notification, and it appears on the Business Listings board and at /business/your-name for the run you bought, counted from the day it is approved.
Once it is live
- Edit it from My listings. The first 3 edits are free, then 1,000 coins each. Every edit is read again; your live version keeps showing while it waits.
- Extend it before or after it ends — the new run is added to the time left, never restarted.
- Deactivate it to take it down for a while, and reactivate it later. The run keeps counting down while it is off.
Tips for a page that sells
- Use a square logo and real photos of your products — a page of pictures gets far more clicks than a page of text.
- Write the bio for a stranger: what you do, where, and why you.
- Give every product a clear price, even "From ₹500" — people skip things they have to ask about.
- Add a map link: "near me" searches turn into visits.
