Efritin.com often simply referred to as Efritin is a classified advertisements website operating in Nigeria. It was formally launched in August 2015[3][4] and has sections dedicated to private and business advertisements for cars and vehicles, general goods (including electronics, home appliances, and personal items among others) property and jobs.

The name “Efritin” is the Nigerian Pidgin (an informal lingua franca widely spoken in Nigeria) form of the word “Everything”.

Owned by Swedish company Saltside Technologies[5][6], Efritin.com has a mission to build leading online marketplaces in under-served markets, creating sustainable value for the community.

30% of its staff population is dedicated to trust verification functions, under which only verified sellers are allowed on the site. Presently,[when?] Efritin.com has well over 300,000 verified sellers on its platform.[citation needed]
