Wallet Activation

If you're new to web3 and have just created a new wallet, you may need to activate it by sending a small amount of XLM (preferably more than 1 XLM) to it. This is a one-time step to enable your wallet for transactions. You can do so by buying XLM from a cryptocurrency exchange and sending it to your wallet address. Once activated, you will need to establish a USDC trustline in order for your wallet to be able to hold USDC. To do this, look for an option in your wallet to "Add Trustline", "Add Asset" or "Manage Assets" and select USDC (with code GA5Z....K4KZVN). This will allow your wallet to receive and hold USDC tokens. Finally, you will need to fund your wallet with USDC in order to make purchases on the app. You can do this by sending USDC from another wallet or exchange to your wallet address. Alternatively, you can "Swap" XLM for USDC directly in your wallet if it supports that feature.

Browse items

Use the search box to look for item titles, filter by category, price range, and city to narrow results.

Buying

To buy an item, click on it to view details and then click the "Buy" button. You will be prompted to confirm the transaction in your wallet. Make sure you have enough USDC in your wallet to cover the purchase price and some XLM for transaction fees. It's also advised to first chat with the seller to confirm item availability and any other details before making a purchase. Once you've done a successful purchase, the item will appear in Listings under "Bought Items". The seller will only receive the USDC after you confirm that you have received the item by clicking the checkbox and pressing the "Release Funds" button. The seller can also refund the USDC to you if you are not satisfied with the item.

Selling

To list an item for sale, click the "Sell" button on the top right and fill out the item details. Once your item is listed, it will appear in Listings under "Your Listings". When a buyer purchases your item, you will receive the USDC once you've delivered it and they confirm receipt of the item. If the item has not been sold or delivered yet, you have the option to either edit the item's details, delete the item or refund the USDC to the buyer by clicking the "Return Funds to Buyer" button.
