What is Kijiji?

Kijiji is a Canadian classifieds marketplace used for local buying and selling across categories such as home goods, electronics, fashion, vehicles and services.

How sellers use it

A seller creates an ad with a title, description, price, location and photos. Local buyers can then contact the seller through the marketplace.

Kijiji vs Facebook Marketplace

Both are commonly used for local selling. Sellers often choose between them based on category, local demand and where buyers are most active.

Kijiji seller checklist

  • Use a specific title with brand, model and condition.
  • Upload clear photos from multiple angles.
  • Describe defects honestly.
  • State pickup or shipping options clearly.
  • Keep the listing removed or updated after it sells elsewhere.
