How bănuț.md works

bănuț.md is an online marketplace for Moldova. Anyone can post listings for free, and buyers contact sellers directly — no middlemen, no commissions.

For sellers

1. Create an account

Click "Create account" and choose how to sign up — email + password, Google, or directly via Telegram. Our pick: Telegram, 10 seconds, no new password to remember.

2. Verify your phone

After first login, we ask you to verify your phone number. Click a button, open our bot @banutMD_bot in Telegram, hit "Share Contact". The number is verified by Telegram — you don't type it, no SMS. Free, 10 seconds.

Why mandatory? To keep the marketplace clean: no bots, no fake listings. One account = one real number.

3. Post your listing

Click "Publish" in the header. Our AI helps:

• Detects the category from your title — no manual selection.
• Generates specific fields (brand, year, mileage for cars; area, floor for real estate; size for clothes, etc.).
• Suggests a fair price based on similar active listings.
• Checks content for spam/fraud before publishing.

Add photos (max 8), pick the city, confirm the price — done. Your listing goes live in seconds.

4. Get messages, sell

Buyers reach you via the built-in chat. Your phone is visible only to those who start a conversation — to avoid random calls.

For buyers

Search freely — or with AI

Type anything in the search bar: "BMW diesel under 200000 lei Chișinău", "2-room apartment Botanica up to 50000 eur", "Apple laptop Bălți". Click "Search with AI ✨" and filters apply automatically — price, category, city.

Or use the sidebar filters — categories, localities (drill-down district → village), price in MDL/EUR/USD, condition, AI quality.

Contact the seller directly

Every listing has a "Send message" button. Messages stay on banut.md — your data doesn't go outside. The seller's phone appears when you start the conversation.

Save what you like

Tap the heart on any listing — find it later in My account → Favorites. Get notified if the price drops or if the listing disappears (sold).

For trades

bănuț.md supports 3 listing types: SELL, BUY, TRADE. On "TRADE" describe what you have and what you want — someone with the inverse match contacts you.

How much does it cost?

Everything is free. Posting listings, messages, search, favorites, AI filters — zero commission, zero mandatory subscription. See Pricing for Pro options (promotion, boost).
