About Xenpen

Xenpen is an online marketplace built on trust. Every member who sells, rents, bids, or sends a message has verified who they are.

Why we're building Xenpen

Buying from strangers online shouldn't feel like a gamble. Fake accounts, no-show buyers, and scams make online marketplaces stressful. Xenpen starts from a simple rule: you always know the person on the other side is real.

What makes Xenpen different

• Verified members. Members verify a government ID and a quick selfie with our identity partner, Didit, before they can sell, rent, bid, or message.
• One app for everything local. Items for sale, auctions, and tool and equipment rentals today, with homes for rent, lease, and sale next.
• A record of every deal. Each listing, purchase, and sale has an ID, rentals have condition photos at pickup and return, and both sides review each other.
• Privacy first. Listings show an approximate area, never an exact address. We don't sell your personal information or share it for advertising.
• Free to use. Verification is free, and the first 300 members to verify become Founding Members.

Where we are

Xenpen is available in California and the Philippines, with plans to grow to more places over time. The iPhone app is in development, and a public beta is coming soon. Read our news for updates.
