Our story

A marketplace where buyers lead and sellers deliver.

Zplaza was born from the frustration of sourcing bespoke products across countless tabs and cold outreach. We flipped the model so buyers declare their intent, share their context, and let the best sellers respond with precision.

Modern workspace

Buyer-first

Every workflow starts with a detailed brief, not a random listing. Buyers control who sees their contact info.

Moderated

Admins vet new users, approve posts, and tune branding from a secure dashboard.

Enterprise grade

Backed by PHP 8, MySQL, CSRF protection, and notification pipelines for resets and approvals.

Mail-ready

Buyers receive alerts for seller messages, approvals, and password recovery via email.

We design features that reduce friction, increase trust, and keep marketplaces on-brand.

  • Approval queues for both users and posts.
  • Auditable log output for debugging and compliance.
