For buyers
What is PriceMe?
PriceMe shows exclusive offers from verified local shops, WhatsApp and Instagram sellers and small brands. You get a free code, and you buy directly from the seller.
Is PriceMe free for buyers?
Yes. Browsing offers and getting codes is free. You never pay PriceMe.
How do I use a PriceMe code?
Open an offer and tap "Get PriceMe code". Then tap "Order on WhatsApp" (your code is already in the message) or show the code at the shop before you pay. Each code works once.
Why do you ask for my name, mobile and email?
To keep fake buyers and fake sellers out. We confirm your email once with a 6-digit code. The seller sees only your first name and the last 4 digits of your mobile number. We do not send marketing emails.
Who do I pay, and how?
You pay the seller directly, by UPI, cash or however they accept payment. PriceMe never collects money and is not part of the sale. Pay only after you see the product, or on delivery.
What does "Verified seller" mean?
We checked the seller's business details and confirmed their email before their offer went live. It is not a guarantee of the product, so check it before paying and ask for a bill.
What if a seller refuses my code or something goes wrong?
Write to grievance@priceme.in with the offer and your code. We look into every complaint and can remove the offer or the seller.
Where do the online price comparisons come from?
Where an offer shows a price on Amazon, Flipkart or another site, it is the price we saw for the same product on the date shown. Online prices change often, so check before you rely on it.
For sellers
Is it really free?
Yes. Listing, your seller page and basic stats are free during our launch, with no commission. If we add paid features later, we will tell you first, and you will never be charged without agreeing.
Who can list on PriceMe?
Local shops, WhatsApp and Instagram sellers, online stores and small brands in India. You need a WhatsApp number, an email address and a business address.
What can I not sell?
Medicines and medical items, alcohol, tobacco and vapes, weapons and firecrackers, fake or copied goods, adult items, gambling, loans or crypto, and anything illegal or needing a licence you do not have. The full list is in our terms.
How do I list an offer?
Fill in the 3-step form: your business, your offer and your contact details. Confirm your email from the link we send. We review the offer within 1 to 2 days and message you on WhatsApp before it goes live.
What is a PriceMe code?
Each buyer gets a unique code like PM-7KQ2. When they order, they give you the code. You enter it in your seller dashboard to confirm the sale, so you know the customer came from PriceMe.
Who handles payment and delivery?
You do, exactly as you do today. The buyer pays you directly, by cash or UPI or however you accept payment. PriceMe never collects money.
How does the online price check work?
On the form, type your product name and tap the Google Shopping, Amazon or Flipkart button to see what it sells for online. Enter the lowest price you find. If your offer is cheaper, buyers see the comparison on your offer once we have verified it. It is optional.
What should I enter as "Normal price / MRP"?
The price you genuinely charge today, and never more than the printed MRP. Do not raise it to make the discount look bigger; we check, and such offers are rejected.
I sell on Amazon or Flipkart. Can I list?
Yes, but the PriceMe offer must be used on your own WhatsApp, shop or website, not on Amazon or Flipkart.
Why do you check offers and ask for my address and location?
So buyers can trust every deal. We confirm your business is real and the offer price is genuine before it goes live. Your street address and map location are not shown to buyers.
How will I know when a buyer is interested?
We email you each time a buyer takes a code for your offer, and you can see views, codes, clicks and sales in your private seller dashboard.
