5miles: Buy and Sell Locally
5miles opened a new channel called 5miles Dash, which is a new auction feature that allows users to bid on brand new items. The auctions last 90 seconds and bids start at $1. Users only pay when they win and the items are shipped directly to their door. If a user is unsatisfied with a product, they offer buyer protection so a refund can be requested. Additionally, users can claim up to a $22 coupon package towards their first purchase.
5miles is a local marketplace app that allows users to buy and sell items in their area. The app is free, easy, and safe to use, and has facilitated over $1 billion in local sales. Users can also discover classifieds in their area, find a place to live, hire local services, or get a new job through the app. It is free to list items for sale and discover local goods and services within a five-mile radius.
The app offers easy registration through Facebook or email and allows users to snap a photo and list items for sale within seconds. It uses GPS and zip code to find thousands of listings nearby, and users can make offers by sending in-app chat messages. The app also offers safety features such as verifications, ratings and reviews, and a Safe Area Exchange Locator (SEAL) feature to find secure meetup spots. The 5miles team constantly monitors listings and chats to prevent fraud.
Users can browse photos and search/filter to find relevant listings. They can like items and follow sellers, make offers, and chat to share more details, photos, and meeting spots. Users can also share listings to Facebook and Twitter to sell faster.
The app is also useful for finding home services professionals, including home cleaning, repair, and improvement professionals. Users can also find help with chores or errands, trusted movers, apartments, houses, condos for rent or sale, roommates, and job opportunities.
The app is available for free and can be downloaded from the 5miles website. For more information, users can visit the website or contact the team via email.
