Help Keep PinkBazaar Free for Every Business

PinkBazaar is free to list, ad-free, and commission-free for businesses worldwide. Your contribution — large or small — keeps it that way.

Why we ask for your support

PinkBazaar was built on a simple belief — every local business deserves a free, professional online presence. Today, over 1,60,000 businesses across 600+ cities use PinkBazaar to be found by customers, and we've never charged any of them to be listed.

Free listings cost real money to run. Our paid Basic Upgrade plan ($7/year) is intentionally priced so that even the smallest shop can afford a Featured placement — which means it covers only a small share of our running costs.

We've deliberately refused to run ads, charge commissions on customer–business transactions, or sell anyone's data. Those routes would change who PinkBazaar serves. Instead, we lean on contributions from people who believe in keeping a clean, independent directory online — owners, customers, and anyone who has found PinkBazaar useful.

Where your support goes

Every contribution is reinvested into keeping the platform running and improving. Here's what it covers:

🖥️
Server & hosting

VPS, bandwidth, daily backups, and storage for listing photos and reviews.

🔒
Domain & SSL

Annual domain renewals and security certificates so every visitor stays on https.

📧
Email infrastructure

Google Workspace for support@ and the email-authentication setup that prevents spoofing.

✅
Free verification

Our small team manually reviews business documents — the ✔ Verified badge is free for every owner.

🛠️
New features

Better search, faster pages, owner dashboards, page updates, products showcase — all shipped continuously.

🌍
Outreach & growth

Helping small businesses in underserved cities create their first online profile — at no cost to them.

What we will never do

Transparency matters — here's what your support will never fund:

  • ✕ No ads on listing pages — businesses get the visitor's full attention.
  • ✕ No commissions on transactions between customers and businesses.
  • ✕ No selling, renting, or sharing of personal data with third parties.
  • ✕ No paid placement that overrides relevance for far-away searches.
  • ✕ No supporter-only features — your contribution doesn't unlock anything you couldn't already get for $7.

PinkBazaar is a private business directory, not a registered charity — contributions are voluntary and not tax-deductible. After your PayPal contribution, sending us the transaction ID on WhatsApp helps us thank you personally and send a confirmation.

💗 Thank you

Every contribution — no matter the size — is read, noted, and appreciated. PinkBazaar exists because small businesses, customers, and supporters like you believe a free, independent directory is worth building.
