About us

We built a market where the price of entry is the same for everybody.

Yangabid is a gamified commerce platform. We or Brands list real items, players pay one small daily fee starting at 400 naira, and skill plus timing decides who takes the item home.

The idea

Shopping in Nigeria is a waiting game. We turned it into a playing game.

Most people see something they want online and then wait. Wait for salary, wait for a sale, wait for the price to come down. We wanted to give that person a different door into the same item, one that starts at 400 naira to walk through.

So we built a marketplace that runs in sessions. Every session has a real item behind it, supplied by a listed partner. You pay for the day once, you join as many sessions as your plan covers, and you play. The person holding the most Yangs when the timer ends wins the item outright. No part payment, no voucher, no catch on the other side.

What we are, in one line

A gamified digital commerce and customer acquisition platform.


For players, that means a cheap and fair shot at items they want. For brands, it means attention, first party data and a direct line to shoppers who are already leaning forward.

What we hold ourselves to

Three rules we do not bend.

The item is real

Every session is tied to actual stock from a listed partner or from our own inventory. If an item cannot be supplied, the session does not run.

The rules are public

Entry price, session length, how Yangs are earned and how a winner is decided are all visible in the app before you spend anything.

Winning costs nothing more

No handling fee, no delivery charge, no upsell at the end. The item ships to the winner and that is where it stops.

For brands and retailers

Put your product in front of people who are already playing for it.

Listing on Yangabid is not a discount programme. Your item becomes the prize of a session, and everybody chasing it spends the session looking at your brand. You get reach, repeat impressions and a clean read on what people want.

We work with e-commerce platforms, FMCG brands, electronics retailers and financial services partners across Nigeria.
