Every listing shows its price the way you set it: a rupee amount, Free, or On request. You set it on the Price and timing screen, and you can change it later with Edit.
Pick how you're pricing it
Choose Paid to type a price in ₹, Free to give it away, or On request if buyers should ask you.Type the price
For Paid, enter whole rupees. You can add a Price note for the unit or terms, like “per kg” or “a box”.Decide if it's negotiable
Switch on Negotiable if buyers can send you an offer. The listing then shows a Negotiable tag.
What each option means
| Option | What buyers see | What happens next |
|---|---|---|
| Paid | Your price, for example ₹2,500 | Buyers tap Buy at this price, or Ask the price if it's negotiable |
| Free | A Free tag | Buyers tap Ask for it, and you choose who gets it |
| On request | Price on request | Buyers tap Ask the price and you send one back |
Free suits plants, books or furniture you'd like a neighbor to have. When you pick Free or On request, there's no price to fill in.
Original and selling price
Some listing types, such as an Offer from a business, ask for two prices: the Original price and the Selling price. Zinola works out the discount and shows it on the card, for example 20% OFF. The selling price has to be lower than the original.
A budget instead of a price
A Wanted post has no price. It asks for your Budget instead, like “Up to ₹1,500”, so neighbors know what you're willing to pay. There's no Free, On request or Negotiable on a budget. See Wanted and To lend posts.
To agree on a price inside a chat, see Offers, counter-offers and pickup times.
