To sell a cow or a buffalo, a user is asked to fill out a form on the app which includes sharing photos of the cattle and "Enter the expected ask price of your cattle and submit the form to know the best price for your cattle according to the market," as per the page's FAQ section.

To buy cattle, users can go to the ‘Explore Cattle’ option on the app's homepage to get information on a wide range of options and also see the animal via video call.
