Frequently asked questions
Do I need a smartphone to sell on GeraFarm?
No. In Kenya and Ghana, GeraFarm supports USSD-based listing so farmers with basic feature phones can list produce without a smartphone or internet connection. The full web and app experience requires a smartphone or computer.
How does GeraFarm pricing compare to selling through a middleman?
Middlemen typically take 20–50% of crop value. On GeraFarm, farmers receive the buyer-agreed price minus a 10% platform transaction fee — keeping significantly more per kilogram than most traditional broker arrangements.
