Smartphone with the form for posting an ad on TullabTips

Posting an ad on Tullab is free and takes a few minutes. Here is how to fill it in so that buyers find it and contact you.

Sign in with Google or Telegram

Open post an ad and sign in with your Google or Telegram account. There is no separate registration with a password, and posting is free.

Then choose a category and a town. The category decides where your ad is seen: people look for flats in apartment rentals and for smartphones in phones. The town matters too, because people usually search nearby, in Cairo, Hurghada, Sharm El Sheikh or Alexandria.

How to write a clear title

The title says right away what is for sale and includes the main parameter. Buyers scroll fast and decide in a second.

  • «iPhone 13, 128 GB» instead of «Selling phone urgently»
  • «Two bedroom flat in Nasr City, furnished» instead of «Flat for rent»
  • «Baby stroller, almost new» instead of «Great item»

Photos, description and a fair price

Photos do most of the work. Shoot in daylight, on a clean background, from different sides. Show defects too, if there are any, so the buyer does not change their mind at the meeting.

In the description mention the condition, age, what is included, why you are selling and where to pick it up. Keep the price realistic: look at similar listings on Tullab and stay close to them. If you are open to bargaining, say so.

Do not write the title or the text in capital letters and skip the extra exclamation marks.

Contacts and answering buyers

Add your phone number and Telegram so buyers can reach you easily. Reply quickly and politely: a buyer who waits a day for an answer has often already bought elsewhere.

Prepare answers to common questions in advance: is it still available, where can I see it, is the price negotiable. Once the item is sold, remove the ad so you do not get extra calls.

How to bump an ad and whether to pay

Once a day you can bump your ad for free, and it goes back to the top of the list. It is the easiest way to get new views.

Paid promotion, such as VIP or an urgent tag, is up to you. It helps you stand out where there are many similar offers, but a good ad with clear photos often sells without it.

Your ad in four languages at once

You write in the language you prefer, and Tullab automatically translates the text and shows the ad in Russian, English, Kyrgyz and Uzbek. That way more people see it. Use numbers and exact names such as the model, size or district, and the translation will be accurate.

Moderation and safety

Ads are moderated: prohibited goods and services and anything that breaks Egyptian law are not published. See the details in help.

Do not take or send prepayments to strangers, meet in busy places and get the money when you hand over the item. If a «buyer» suggests a strange payment scheme or asks for a code from an SMS, stop the conversation.
