For sellers
Everything your business needs. Nothing it doesn't.
Built specifically for South African small businesses.
Secure escrow — funds only release when you both agree
Your customer pays upfront. TradeSafe holds the money securely until you both confirm the deal is done. No fake payment screenshots. No chasing invoices. No chargebacks.
Products and services — both in one profile
Sell physical products with fixed pricing, or offer services and send custom quotes. Customers browse your profile and connect directly.
Built-in chat and quoting — no extra tools
Every service enquiry starts a conversation. Send itemised quotes in chat. No WhatsApp, no email threads, no separate quoting tool needed.
Get access to new customers — not just your existing ones
Your profile is discoverable to everyone browsing Survex. Show up in front of local customers actively looking for what you sell, beyond who already knows your business.
Business performance analytics — know your numbers
Track views, revenue, top-performing listings, and customer activity from your dashboard. Make smarter decisions with real data.
Customers book you — you control the calendar
Take bookings straight from your profile and set the hours you actually work. Block out the times you're not available and let the diary handle the rest — no double-bookings, no 11pm “are you free Saturday?” messages.
Get found by customers in your area
Customers search by location and see businesses near them first. You show up where you actually trade — your suburb, your city — not buried under someone three provinces away.
Quote, book, pay — all in one place
Enquiry to quote to booking to payment, in a single thread. No back-and-forth across three apps, no chasing a deposit, no wondering if the EFT actually landed.
For customers
Buy local. Buy protected.
Survex protects buyers and sellers equally.
Buy from verified local businesses
Every seller on Survex is onboarded and verified. Browse real businesses offering real products and services near you.
Your money is protected — always
Your payment is held securely and only released to the seller once you confirm you're happy. If something goes wrong, your funds are not gone.
Chat and get a quote before you commit
For services, message the business directly, get a quote, and agree on scope before any money changes hands.
Book in a few taps — at a time that suits you
See when a business is actually available and book the slot you want. No phone tag, no waiting on a reply just to find out if they're free.
