Where Cape Town business gets done together
The vetted marketplace where Cape Town businesses get found, get referred and get on air. One verified profile, every suburb, real customers — and the owners who send work each other's way.

What this is
A community hub for Cape Town, run like a neighbourhood.
Cape Connect is where Western Cape businesses get discovered, referred and talked about — organised by area, ranked by Merit, and amplified on Ace Radio.
A hub, not a listing site
Neighbours, business owners and community groups in one place — each suburb its own circle, all of it searchable and free to browse.
Businesses helping businesses
Referrals, shared suppliers, meet-ups and honest advice. Every member is interviewed before joining, so the circle stays trustworthy.
Merit, earned by neighbours
No paid ranking games. Real people give Merit to businesses that showed up for them — and Merit decides who gets featured.
Amplified on Ace Radio
Our on-air partner puts local stories, fundraisers and member shout-outs in front of the whole Cape.
How to be part of it
Three ways in — all of them help someone.
Whether you run a business, live down the road or just want to lend a hand, there's a way in that takes five minutes.
