For buyers
Discover, inquire, and connect — all before you send a single DM.
Browse local closets and boutiques
Search by city, event type, category, price, and availability. Joda surfaces sellers near you so you can meet for fittings, try-ons, and local pickup — no more scrolling Instagram for 3 hours.
Find exactly the right fit
Filter by real measurements — bust, waist, hips — not just "size M". Every listing includes blouse measurements and height recommendations so you can pre-qualify before you even reach out.
Send a structured inquiry
Click "Send inquiry" on any listing. Fill in your event date, measurements, city, and question. The seller gets everything they need — no back-and-forth needed.
Connect with confidence
Every seller has a real profile: shop name, city, service modes, Instagram handle. You know exactly who you're talking to before you send a word.
Built-in trust
Every detail designed for confidence.
Verified seller badges
Joda reviews and verifies sellers. Buyers see a clear badge on verified shops.
Real cities, real people
Every seller profile shows their actual city. Local buyers find local sellers.
Blouse measurements on every listing
Bust, waist, hips — required fields, not optional. No more guessing from "size M".
Structured inquiry forms
Buyers send their event date and measurements with every inquiry. Sellers always have context.
For sellers
A professional storefront without the tech setup. Up and running in minutes.
Create your storefront in 5 minutes
Sign up, add your shop name, city, bio, Instagram handle, and service types. You'll get a permanent URL you can link in your Instagram bio.
List your outfits with real details
Add photos, title, description, measurements, price, event tags, and availability. Measurement fields are first-class — buyers can filter by bust and waist before they even click your listing.
Get discovered locally — without posting reels
Your shop appears in city-based searches automatically. Buyers looking for lehengas, streetwear, or anything in between find you directly.
Manage structured inquiries from your dashboard
Receive inquiries with event date, measurements, and clear questions baked in. Reply, accept, or decline. No more lost DMs, no more repeating yourself.
Payments & transactions
Choose secure checkout or a direct conversation.
When a seller enables Buy on Joda, buyers can pay by card or wallet through Stripe and follow the order through delivery. Inquiry-only listings still let buyers and sellers agree on the details directly.
Stripe sends checkout payouts to the seller's connected account after its processing fee. Joda adds no sales commission and never holds marketplace funds.
