Terms
Terms of use
Using Shareroom to search, message and save rooms is free. Advertisers agree to show every cost upfront and to have permission to rent what they list.
This is a summary of the main rules. The full terms of use will be published before launch.
Your account
You need a Nigerian mobile number to create an account. Keep your password to yourself; you're responsible for what happens on your account.
To post an advert or book a viewing you'll need to pass an ID check first.
If you advertise
- You have permission to rent or sublet what you list.
- Every cost is in the advert: rent, caution, agency, agreement and service charges, and what bills are extra.
- Prices say what they buy (per bed, per room or the whole place) and how often they're paid.
- A bed in a shared room is advertised as a bed space, never as a private room.
- Photos are of the actual place, and the advert is taken down or marked taken once it's let.
- You don't charge anyone to view, or take money before they've viewed.
We review adverts before they go live and may ask you to change one. If you don't confirm an advert is still available within 14 days we'll ask, and after 21 days it's paused.
Private advertisers can have 5 adverts up at once and post 5 new ones every 28 days. Verified agents can have up to 50.
Rent and deposits
We don't collect rent or deposits. Any payment is between you and the advertiser, so view first and get a written agreement. See our safety guidance.
How to treat each other
No scams, harassment, spam or discrimination. Don't post fake adverts or someone else's photos, and don't use other members' details for anything except renting.
We can remove adverts or messages and suspend accounts that break these rules. You can report anything that does.
Your data
How we handle personal data is set out in our privacy summary.
