About PingMart

The discovery + trust layer for WhatsApp commerce.

Hundreds of millions of dollars move through WhatsApp every month in Nigeria, but buyers have no way to find vendors, verify them, or trust them. PingMart is building the trusted index for social commerce.

Our mission

Make every WhatsApp transaction in Africa feel as safe and discoverable as buying from a major marketplace, without forcing vendors or buyers to leave the app they already love.

What we're building

Discovery

Buyers can finally find WhatsApp vendors the way they search for anything else online, by category, location and trust signal.

Trust

Every paid vendor is verified with ID and business checks. Unclaimed listings are flagged so buyers always know who they're dealing with.

Native to WhatsApp

We don't replace WhatsApp, we make it searchable. One tap opens a real conversation in the app vendors and buyers already use every day.

Why Nigeria first

Nigeria has one of the world's most active social commerce ecosystems, fashion, beauty, food, electronics and services move through WhatsApp at massive scale. Trust, discoverability and dispute protection are the missing layer.

Starting here lets us build for the hardest, most informal commerce environment first. What works in Lagos and Abuja translates directly to other African and emerging markets where WhatsApp is the de facto storefront.

Long-term vision

PingMart becomes the trust infrastructure layer behind WhatsApp commerce, verified identities, dispute resolution, vendor reputation, and discovery, powering the next generation of social commerce across Africa.

Whether you're a vendor, buyer, partner or investor, there's a place for you in what we're building.
