Show up when people search Google Maps near them, with your Bele storefront as your website.

Who can do this

Shops with a physical location, and sellers who deliver or meet buyers within an area (a "service-area business"), can get a free Google Business Profile. You create and own it; Bele helps you link it to your storefront.

Create your Business Profile

  1. Go to google.com/business and sign in with your Google account.
  2. Enter your business name exactly as it appears on your Bele storefront.
  3. Pick the closest category (for example "Clothing store").
  4. Add your shop address, or choose the areas you serve if you don't have a shop.
  5. Add your phone number (your WhatsApp number) and set the website to your Bele storefront: belezw.com/your-handle.

Verify it

Google usually asks for a short video, filmed on your phone in one take. Show a street sign or landmark near you, your business name on signage or packaging, your stock or equipment, and something that proves you trade (an invoice, branded bags). Google can take up to five days to review it.

Keep it matching

Use the same name, address and phone number on Google as on your storefront. Google trusts listings whose details match everywhere.
