Profile Basics
Your Name
Use your real first name. Buyers like knowing who they're dealing with, and it builds trust.
Profile Photo
Add a friendly photo of yourself. Profiles with photos get more buyer confidence. A clear headshot works great.
Your Address
We need your address for:
Calculating delivery options for your listings
Driver pickup coordination
Tax purposes
Don't worry, your full address is never shown to buyers until they've purchased and delivery is confirmed.

Verification Status
Buyers can see your verification status, and it makes a real difference:
Verified Seller - You've confirmed your identity and connected your payment account. Buyers love this!
Pending Verification - You're still setting things up. Finish your profile to earn the verified badge.
Verified sellers consistently get more sales - it's worth taking a few minutes to complete.
What Buyers See
When a buyer views your listing, they can see:
Your first name
Profile photo (if added)
Verification status
Member since date
Your ratings from past sales
Tips for a Great Profile
Be genuine - Use a real photo and your actual name
Stay updated - Keep your address and contact info current
Complete everything - Missing info can slow down transactions
Privacy Matters
We protect your privacy:
Full address only shared after purchase
Email and phone used for notifications only
Personal info never sold to third parties
Your complete profile helps build trust while keeping your personal details safe.
