Fueled by the goal to create a warm, well-informed, and comfortable online neighborhood community, Loket (lo-ket, shorten word for local marketplace) was specially created for Filipinos, by Filipinos.

Loket’s main service as a mobile app is a neighborhood community What’s Up that allows people to share information to each other- from news and announcements, as well as ideas that will create a warm, well-informed, and comfortable neighborhood. Other than an information-sharing platform, the mobile app also allows the neighborhood to know nearby promotions such as events, discounts, and even job fairs and livelihood seminars through Town Promotion.

Besides a neighborhood community app, Loket also provides information to the neighborhood such as establishments listing nearby called Stores and even Second hand deals.

While there are other second-hand deals online, Loket makes sure that the second–hand deals in the mobile app is far different from others. The Second-hand deal section was specially created for peer-to-peer transactions only, thus businesses are off-limits to this section.

Second-hand deal is a section where peers can buy items from neighbors that do not use these items already. At some instances, a peer can even get an item for free, just because a neighbor needs to declutter ASAP. This is never a venue for businesses to sell their products and the system will be monitoring this very carefully.

Ten years from now, Loket team envisions a community mobile app that help bridges Filipinos neighborhood to the government and non-government sectors swiftly. 

Loket team also envisions a strong neighborhood community online where Filipinos can rely on information, especially on what they need-when they need it.
