Hey everyone ! My video is WHACK but I promise my app is Guapp !!
Africa has an incredible amount of fashion, craftsmanship and creativity. Yet there is still no dedicated marketplace connecting African sellers and buyers at a local, regional and continental scale.
Today, too many sellers rely on Instagram, TikTok, WhatsApp and other social platforms to showcase and sell their products. But these platforms were not built to be marketplaces: products are scattered across feeds, stories and messages, making them difficult to discover, search and compare.
Tiyila was created to solve this problem.
Tiyila is a mobile-first marketplace designed to bring African products, sellers and buyers together in one structured space.
Buyers can search and filter products, explore categories such as Women, Men, Children, Beauty, Art and Home, discover individual products and variations, visit sellers’ shops, and choose their preferred delivery and payment options.
For sellers, Tiyila provides a dedicated digital storefront where they can showcase their products, manage their shop, set prices and variations, choose payment and shipping methods, define preparation times, and connect directly with potential customers.
Unlike the traditional social media feeds that are massively used here, Tiyila is built around discovery. Products don't disappear into a feed — they become searchable and organized, making it easier for buyers to find exactly what they are looking for.
Tiyila is designed for local, African and international discovery, helping sellers reach customers beyond their immediate location and across borders.
The platform operates with a freemium model, with free accounts and paid Premium and Pro plans offering additional features and visibility. Sellers can also use boosters to promote their products locally or internationally.
Tiyila. Connecting Africa to the world.
