How does ZooZag Work?
Back to Top
Selling items on ZooZag works like the classified ads in newspapers. Sellers create listings (advertisements) describing the items they want to sell. Interested buyers look at the listings and contact the sellers by email to ask questions or arrange a sale. Sellers can also promote their items to posting them to Twitter, Facebook, by email or for a small fee, have the listing printed in a newspaper. Items can also be posted on cars.com, apartments.com and ForSaleByOwner.com for a fee.

What does it cost?

Signing up for ZooZag is free. The only cost is when you choose to promote a listing by having it appear in a printed newspaper, purchase a featured listing, or post to cars.com, apartments.com and ForSaleByOwner.com. More options will be available in the future, so be sure to check back to learn how you can get the most exposure to your listing.
