1. Find local information
Search products, prices, businesses, and guides
Start from the homepage search box. Search for an item, brand, shop, location, or how-to topic,
then compare the latest reports, dates, photos, ratings, and map locations.
Try the search
2. Add a price
Turn something you saw in a shop into useful data
Tap Post → Post Prices, then add the product, price, business, branch or
location, and a recent photo where possible. Accurate package sizes and dates matter.
Add your first price
3. Add a business
Help PNG businesses become easier to find
If a shop, service, organisation, or branch is missing, use Post → Post Business.
Add the correct name, category, contact details, image, and location before linking prices or guides.

4. Create a practical guide
Document how things actually get done in PNG
Guides turn local experience into reusable steps—such as getting a licence, completing a process,
or using a service. Add clear steps, useful links, photos, and the relevant business or organisation.
