What Flipify is

Flipify watches Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, Kijiji, OfferUp, Vinted, eBay, Mercari and Gumtree. A Basic watchlist (their word for a search) is $5 a month and is checked every 10 minutes; a Premium watchlist is $10 a month and is checked every minute. The seven-day trial includes one of each and needs a payment method. iPhone, Android and web. Core alerts work without a Facebook login. The site is built around reselling: flipping guides, profit calculators, car-alert pages by city, an API and an affiliate program. Read from flipifyapp.com on October 26, 2026.

Why people look for a Flipify alternative

Per-search pricing. One search is cheap. The three or four things most people actually watch are $15 to $40 a month.
A card for the trial. The seven days need a payment method up front.
It is written for resellers. If you want a used Milwaukee kit for your own garage, the site is a lot of sourcing talk to wade through.
The 10-minute Basic check. The cheap tier is the slow tier; the one-minute check is $10 per search.

Deal Scanner: three searches for $3.99, for everyone

Deal Scanner watches Facebook Marketplace, OfferUp and Craigslist from one search and buzzes your iPhone or Android when a listing is posted. Each find gets a Deal Score showing how far under the typical price near you it sits, measured from what your own search has seen. No Facebook login, no account, no commitment. Casual is $3.99 a month for 3 searches, Hunter $9.99 for 6, Pro $19.99 for 12, with all three marketplaces on every plan. Every alert shows when we found the listing, so you know how fresh it is before you drive. It is built for everyone who checks Marketplace every day: the person watching for one truck, the person who flips a few things on the side, and the person who does it full time. Three searches for $3.99 is what one Flipify Basic search costs with change left over. Only after one thing? Pay for the month you're looking and cancel when you've got it.

A phone lock screen with five Deal Scanner alerts: a riding mower, a leather sectional, an iPhone 14, a 2015 F-150 and a kayak, each with its price and percent below typical — What an alert looks like. Each one shows the price, how far under typical it is, and which marketplace.
