A South African service discovery and ratings marketplace, has announced a new strategic initiative to waive all platform fees for NGOs and agencies that support local service businesses. The move is designed to provide a shared digital infrastructure that connects skilled providers with the wider economy at no cost to the partnering organizations or their beneficiaries.
The initiative comes at a critical time for the South African SME sector, where many skilled artisans and small firms remain “invisible” to the formal market despite high demand for their services. By integrating with NGOs and marketing agencies, Xperoc aims to bridge the gap between vocational training and active commercial engagement.
Building a Discovery Infrastructure
The platform is built to address the “Discovery Problem”—the logistical difficulty of connecting qualified providers with local demand. The Xperoc infrastructure is designed to facilitate everyday connections that define the South African service economy: a grandmother in Pinetown seeking a reliable electrician, a small business in Cape Town requiring an accounting firm for a formal audit, or a property owner in need of a verified plumber.
By centralizing these interactions, Xperoc allows households and businesses to find, contact, and rate providers based on verified performance.
A Resource for Economic Development Partners
Under this new model, NGOs focused on economic inclusion and marketing agencies managing service-based clients can utilize Xperoc’s premium features as a turnkey solution. This allows these organizations to offer their beneficiaries a professional digital presence, a robust ratings system, and a direct lead-generation channel without the overhead of traditional software costs.
“The goal is to ensure that reliability, not marketing budget, determines a business’s success,” says Thabiso Mntshali, Founder and CEO of Xperoc. “By providing this infrastructure for free to the agencies and NGOs already working with these businesses, we are creating a more transparent and accessible marketplace for all South Africans.”
Scalable Economic Inclusion
Unlike standard business directories, Xperoc focuses on building a long-term digital reputation for its users. As providers complete jobs and receive ratings, they build a portable asset of trust that helps sustain their business over time.
Xperoc is currently inviting NGOs, NPOs, and agencies involved in SME development and marketing to join the discovery network. Service providers across the country are also encouraged to list their businesses on the marketplace to begin connecting with local households and corporate entities.

Subliminal perception is a subject that virtually no one wants to believe exists, and — if it does exist — they much less believe that it has any practical application. . . . The techniques are in widespread use by media, advertising and Public Relations agencies, industrial and commercial corporations, and by the Federal government itself. – Wilson Bryan Key
