When something sells

Paying in the app is coming soon. For now, you and the buyer agree how to pay.

The buyer pays you directly. Contract takes nothing from the sale.

  • Renewing is one tap by you, never automatic. Listings nobody looks after come down on their own.

  • Ended listings stay in your history for 6 months, to renew or relist.

Safety

How we help keep scammers out.

  • Paying in the app

    Coming soon: buyers pay in the app, and we hold the money until they've checked it. For now, you and the buyer agree how to pay.

  • Contact details stay private

    Phone numbers, emails and links are blocked in chats. Scammers can't pull buyers away, and you both keep a record.

  • Report button

    On every listing, seller profile and chat. Listings reported by several people are hidden until we review them.

  • ID checks

    Sellers of anything over $100 will pass an ID check. ID checks start soon.

  • Licenses and certificates

    Show your licenses, certificates or insurance, and explain your price. Buyers see them on your listings.

  • Video tag

    A short video helps buyers trust what they see. It's suggested for items over $100 and optional for anything. Listings with one get a Video tag.

Questions

How much does it cost to sell?

$5 per listing. Monthly plans, Featured and “Have AI help me” are coming soon. The small listing fee is for safety. It helps keep scammers off Contract Lists.

Do buyers pay fees?

No. Customers never pay Contract fees. Only sellers pay, to advertise.

Do I have to be in California?

No. Sellers anywhere in the 50 states and DC can post. Your listing shows your town and state, like Austin, TX. Our city pages cover California for now.

How long does a listing stay up?

Every listing stays up 30 days. Renew once for free for 30 more days. After that, relist for $5.

How do buyers pay me?

Paying in the app is coming soon. For now, you and the buyer agree how to pay. Let buyers check it before they pay.

Do I need an ID check?

To list anything over $100, you need a one-time ID check (like a driver's license). ID checks start soon. Until then, those listings are saved but not up. That includes a quote over $100 that a buyer accepts.

Can someone under 18 sell?

You must be 18 or older to have an account. A parent or legal guardian may run a parent-assisted account so a child aged 13 to 17 can sell goods or services, like dog walking, tutoring or art. Children under 13 can't sell on Contract Lists, even with a parent.

The parent or guardian is the account holder and is responsible for its listings, messages and payments. Customers see a “Parent-assisted” label, so they know the seller is under 18.

To keep young sellers safe, we show only a first name or business name. No photos of the child, and no exact location.

Parent-assisted sellers can list only in these categories. Services: Classes and lessons, Beauty and personal care, Art and custom work, Everything else, Professional services, Yard and landscaping. Products: Handmade goods, Art and decor, Electronics, Furniture, Garden and outdoor, Everything else.
