Verification, with real benefits.
Start with 10 visible listings. Verify your phone to unlock 50 for free. Want your own storefront? Private sellers and businesses can choose room for 250—or go unlimited.
Your limit is the number of listings visible at the same time.

Your limit is about what’s visible—not your lifetime listing total.
Select which of your current listings appear in the marketplace, up to your level’s limit. For example, with 18 listings in your account, Basic lets you show 10 at once. Phone verification gives you room to show all 18. When a visible listing is sold or taken offline, that space becomes available for another.
Simple steps. Clear benefits.
01 / CONFIRM YOUR EMAIL
Create an account and confirm your email using the link we send you. You can then choose up to 10 listings to display.
02 / VERIFY YOUR PHONE
Sign in, confirm your mobile number and enter the one-time text code. Once confirmed, your visible-listing limit rises to 50 and your Verified badge appears.
Phone verification confirms that you have access to a working Canadian mobile number from a recognized telephone carrier. This is the basis of your phone-verified status; it does not independently prove your identity or guarantee a transaction.
03 / SET UP YOUR STOREFRONT
Private sellers and businesses can choose 250 listings for $29.95/month or unlimited for $49.95/month. Verify and pay with a credit card to activate your Verified badge. Your items appear in your Mainstreet Storefront and in the main database where buyers search for items.
Your number. Your choice.
FSBO Inc. uses the phone number you provide for phone verification only to confirm that you have access to a valid, working Canadian mobile number from a recognized telephone carrier.
FSBO Inc. will not use your phone number for marketing or share it with another entity, unless legally compelled to disclose it to law enforcement for a lawful purpose.
You can separately choose to display your phone number to buyers or keep it hidden through your account profile settings. If you choose to display it, people viewing your listing can see it. Keeping it hidden does not affect your phone-verified status.
Know what you’re seeing
Verification helps people understand which checks an account has completed, whether they’re buying or selling.
An email address has been confirmed. Email confirmation alone does not earn a public Verified badge.
The user has confirmed their mobile number. The Verified badge appears on their profile and listings.
The seller has used a credit card to verify and pay for their Mainstreet Storefront. Successful credit-card verification and payment activate their Verified status. This applies to private sellers and businesses; it is not a separate business-identity check.
A badge is information, not a guarantee. It does not guarantee item ownership, condition, payment or a safe transaction.
No. Basic is free for up to 10 visible items, and phone verification is free for up to 50. Monthly fees apply to the Mainstreet Storefront plans: $29.95 for up to 250 items or $49.95 for unlimited items.
No. Each level is your total visible-listing capacity: 10, 50, 250 or unlimited. The limits do not stack.
Yes. Use My Listings to choose the items you want shown, within your current limit. Listings that are not visible do not use a visible-listing space.
Both private sellers and businesses can set up a Mainstreet Storefront. Items appear in your storefront and in the main marketplace database, so buyers can discover them while searching. Verification is activated when the seller successfully verifies and pays for their storefront using a credit card.
Successfully using a credit card to verify and pay for your Mainstreet Storefront activates your Verified badge. This verification method is available to both private sellers and businesses and does not involve a separate business review.
Use a working Canadian mobile number from a recognized telephone carrier that can receive the one-time text code. Internet and VoIP numbers are not accepted.
Yes. Your account’s verification also identifies you when you contact a seller. The listing limits apply to items you sell, not to how many items you can browse.
Start free. Verify your phone when you’re ready for more room.
