How it works
A group order in four steps
iceshop runs on WhatsApp; just message our assistant, Ice. No app, no sign-up. Today iceshop runs only in our first test area, Silivri (Istanbul). Tell us where you are — we open new areas as demand grows.
01 · The list arrives
Every week, a list of products we found cheaper than at the supermarket chains comes to WhatsApp as a link. Each item shows the chains' shelf price and how much cheaper it is.
Seller prices are re-read every morning. If the price isn't shown on the seller's page, the item is out of stock or there is no buy button, it doesn't go on the list. An item only joins the list if its price, service fee included, is at least 2% below the cheapest supermarket shelf price.
02 · Add to your freezer
Add what you want to your freezer (your list). Up to 3 of each item. No payment at this point.
You fill the same case as your neighbours. The list shows how full each case is, e.g. "case of 12 · 9/12 filled". Nobody sees who bought what, only how many joined.
03 · Pay when the case fills
Joining closes Sunday 20:00. For items whose case filled you get an iyzico payment link, valid for 24 hours. No payment for items whose case didn't fill.
The link opens iyzico's secure payment page; your card details never reach us. If you don't pay within 24 hours your share goes to the next person and nothing is charged. When the case fills the price is fixed: the Ice Price. What you pay never goes up.
04 · Pick up on Sunday
The following Sunday, 10:00–14:00, collect your bag at the pickup point with your pickup code.
Once payments are in, we order from the wholesaler or producer, who brings the goods to the pickup point before pickup day. After payment a 6-digit pickup code arrives on WhatsApp. No home delivery and no shipping; that keeps prices low.
If a case doesn't fill
No payment. Your request moves to the next lists for up to 2 weeks. If the price goes up we ask you first. Write "çıkar" (remove) to drop it.
Want something that's not on the list?
Send its name or a photo. If we can find it, we add it to your requests; if enough people want it, it goes on the list.
