A Tourak product
A kaftan worn once, a pushchair your child has outgrown, a phone you have just replaced. Trokido is the second-hand platform we built for exactly those things: the total with fees appears before you order, and the buyer pays cash when the item arrives.
Available in French, Arabic and English.
Trokido (trokido.com) is a second-hand classifieds marketplace designed, built and run by Tourak Digital Group, where people sell, buy, swap, rent out or give away items spread across 17 categories, from fashion to property. Listing is free for private sellers. Buyers pay cash on delivery. An Android app sits alongside the website, and Morocco, Mauritania and France each have their own catalogue.
Free to listPrivate sellers pay nothing to publish and no commission when they sell.
Pay on deliveryIn cash, to the courier or to the seller in person. 48 hours to report a problem.
Swap up to 5 for 1With a cash top-up when the two sides are not worth the same.
One catalogue per countryMorocco, Mauritania, France: you buy and get delivered in your own country.
In Meknes as in Fes, second-hand goods already change hands at the souk, in Facebook groups and on WhatsApp statuses, but when a parcel paid in advance by transfer never arrives, or arrives broken, there is nobody to complain to.
Trokido reverses the order. Nothing is paid when you order: you hand cash to the courier, or to the seller at a meet-up, and then have 48 hours to report a problem. It is not a client project. The group designed the platform, wrote the code and runs it.
Three languages, one of them Arabic read right to left, meant a mirrored layout for every screen. Cash on delivery called for a 6-digit hand-over code and a 48-hour window for complaints. Property and job listings are reviewed before they go live. The platform runs on Laravel and PostgreSQL; the app is written in Flutter.
A shop may need the same building blocks: a bilingual catalogue, an order paid on delivery. See our mobile apps and online shops.
How it works
Four ways to use Trokido. The steps follow the ones described on the site.
Catalogue
From fashion to job ads, each category has its own rules: what gets shipped, what gets rented, what is settled in person. The photos show the kind of items expected; they are not real listings.
01Sell · swap · give away
Maxi dresses, evening kaftans, summer djellabas, handbags, plus a separate beauty section. One photo is enough to publish and the listing can be open to sale, swap or both, but give the real size and mention every flaw, since the buyer has 48 hours after delivery to complain if something is wrong.
02Sell · swap · give away
Shirts, leather jackets, shoes, watches, grooming products. Photograph clothes laid flat in daylight and give measurements rather than just a size. For an expensive jacket, a hand-over in a public place puts both sides at ease.
03Sell · swap · give away
Bodysuits, pushchairs, toys, school bags: the category holds twelve families of items, including one for baby safety and one for feeding. A school bag still in good shape can also be given away. Listed at 0 MAD, it shows up under the “Free” filter.
04Sell · swap · give away
Teapots, trays, cushions, small appliances, tools, plants: Home has thirteen families, from kitchen to garden, one fewer than Services. Crafts have their own section, where a hand-woven Berber kilim listed from Fes sits among the example listings, and heavy items like that one can travel with a carrier to another city or be handed over in person.
05Sell · swap · give away
Phones, laptops, consoles, cameras, and also tablets and connected devices. A photo with the screen on shows the device works; next to it, list what comes with it, charger, box or receipt. Paid on delivery, the device stays covered for 48 hours, time enough to report a fault.
06For rent
A wedding dress, a takchita, a jabador or a bridal crown is worn for one evening, sometimes two. Trokido gives them a rental category with eight sections: evening dresses, kaftans, suits, henna and engagement outfits, children's ceremony wear. If the owner asks for a deposit, it is returned when the outfit comes back.
07Sell · swap · give away
This one is for buying and reselling: bridal and groom outfits, guest outfits, henna, khotba, Eid and sbouâ. Bridal sets, mdammas belts and neggafa accessories have their own section. A takchita worn once keeps its value, so it might as well dress another bride.
08Bulk and lots
For resellers, second-hand shops and traders clearing stock: clothes by the kilo, clothing bundles, new surplus stock, textiles for recycling. Price the whole lot and give its weight or piece count. A heavy lot is better sent with a carrier, or collected on site.
09Sell · swap · give away
Jewellery, watches, signed pieces: the designer category, for women and men, gathers items where the brand or the workshop sets the price. Show the signature, the hallmark or the certificate. The pricier the item, the more sense a hand-over makes.
10Sell · swap · give away
Novels, textbooks, magazines, records, films: enough to clear a shelf without throwing anything away. Textbooks pass from one school year to the next. And a box of books can just as well be swapped for something else.
11Sell · swap · give away
Board games, puzzles, instruments, stamps, coins, postcards. Collectors search with precise words. Write the year, the edition, the model. A guitar or a stamp album can also go in a swap, with a top-up if the values differ.
12Sell · swap · give away
Bikes, yoga mats, dumbbells, rackets, martial arts kit, scooters: twelve families, from cycling to winter sports. A bike does not fit in a parcel, so a hand-over or a carrier's trip between two cities solves it. Remember to give the frame size.
13Local listing, meet in person
Cars, motorbikes, scooters, vans, car parts. Whatever does not fit in a parcel is sold by appointment: the listing brings you together, the sale is settled between you, with no money paid to Trokido. Test drive, registration, papers: check it all on the spot.
14Reviewed before going live
Homes for sale, rentals, house shares. Every property listing is reviewed by the team before it goes live. One simple rule for tenants: view first, pay later, and never send a deposit just to see a flat.
15Reviewed before going live
Job offers, people looking for work, internships and apprenticeships, also reviewed before going live. A craftsman looking for an apprentice can post here, and a student can offer their services. Worth knowing: a genuine employer never charges you to apply.
16Local listing, meet in person
Private lessons, removals, phone repairs, plumbing, sewing, henna at home, neggafa, catering, photographers: fourteen families of services. You are not selling an object here. You are offering a trade, so say which neighbourhood, which hours and what the price covers.
17Local listing, meet in person
Industrial sewing machines, café and restaurant equipment, market-stall gear, building-site or farm machinery. A workshop that closes or upgrades can sell what still runs. With this kind of equipment, the sale is settled in person, machine running.
Depending on an item's size and how far it has to go, Trokido offers three ways to hand it over.
Meet in a public place with a hand-over code. This is how local listings work: cars, homes, jobs.
In the cities where the service is open, an independent courier takes the item across town and keeps 92.5% of the fare. The service opens city by city.
Approved carriers post their routes, Meknes to Casablanca for instance. You book a space for your item and the carrier sets the price.
App
The same listings as the website, plus notifications: an offer received, an order accepted, a parcel shipped, and you know without opening a browser.
Only trokido.com/application offers the genuine installation file; an APK received by message does not come from Trokido. On iPhone, use the website in Safari.
The rules Trokido applies, and a few habits worth keeping.
Each country has its own catalogue, and you buy in the country where you live. From our Meknes office, the two closest pages are Meknes and Fes.
No. It is one of the group's own products: Tourak Digital designed it, develops it and runs it. That is why it sits among our work.
Nothing for a private seller, neither to publish nor when the item sells. The buyer pays a protection fee, shown in the total before ordering.
No. For now the only payment method is cash, handed to the courier when the parcel arrives or to the seller at the meet-up.
No. Seller and buyer must be in the same country: from Meknes, you can only buy in Morocco.
Pick a listing that accepts swaps and offer one of your own items, or a bundle of up to five. A cash top-up evens out any difference in value. Without confirmation from both sides within 24 hours there is no swap; after delivery, each side has 48 hours to report a fault.
No, only Android for now, using the file offered on trokido.com/application. An iPhone can open the website in Safari and pin it to the home screen.
Because Trokido has only just opened. Demo listings show what a listing page looks like; they are clearly marked and nothing in them is for sale.
That is what we do: websites, online shops and apps. Tell us about your project on the contact page and we will tell you what is feasible and what it costs.
Trokido was built by the same team that makes websites for shops and businesses in Meknes, Fes and Ifrane. Marketplace, catalogue or app? Write to us from the contact page with what you sell and in which cities.
