Product Listing Policy

We are a structured platform operating in multiple countries. Display and eligibility rules adapt to local law.

Headshops and growshops are welcome within the law; restricted items require login.

Display rules vary by country

Accepted categories and restricted-access items

What we accept

Restaurants, markets, liquor stores, convenience, coffee, lifestyle, headshops and growshops — as long as they comply with the law.

  • Licensed merchants and legally allowed products.
  • Informative, descriptive and non-offensive content.

Items requiring login

Some items are shown only to logged-in users and, when applicable, 18+.

  • Rolling papers, tips/filters, ashtrays, grinders and accessories.
  • Adult items permitted by law (no prohibited substances).
  • Display rules vary by country.

Only products with no restrictions are publicly shown in the store’s showcase.

Prohibited without exception

To protect customers, merchants and the brand, it is forbidden to publish, sell or promote:

  • Vapes / e-cigarettes, refills, liquids and related devices.
  • Drugs, narcotics and illegal substances.
  • Weapons, ammunition, explosives and war accessories.
  • Political/partisan, offensive or discriminatory content.
  • Counterfeits and intellectual-property infringement.
  • WhatsApp/phone/external links on public pages.

We do not sell vapes. Equivalent restrictions apply per local jurisdiction.

We follow best practices (similar to major marketplaces) while being inclusive of legal categories — such as headshops and growshops — through controlled access.

Merchant responsibility

Products listed, inventory, prices and descriptions are the merchant’s sole responsibility. By creating a store, the merchant acknowledges and agrees to this Policy, the Terms of Use and Smowka’s Privacy Policy.

  • Ensure compliance with local law (licenses, age gates, labels, provenance).
  • Publish only licensed/authorized content and images.
  • Keep inventory and pricing up to date.

Moderation, penalties and reporting to authorities

Smowka may suspend, hide or remove products and stores that violate this Policy or the law. In severe cases (drugs, weapons, fraud, exploitation, selling prohibited items like vapes), Smowka may immediately deactivate the store and notify the competent authorities, cooperating upon official request.

We value freedom of choice while protecting our ecosystem within the laws of the countries where we operate.

Multi-country operation and jurisdiction adaptation

We operate in multiple countries. Display rules (e.g., login requirement, minimum age, category eligibility) adapt automatically to local legislation and digital-platform policies.

Brazil

  • Vapes prohibited by national regulation.
  • Headshop items: login and 18+ where required.

Portugal

  • Display aligned with EU and local regulators.
  • Age-gating and login for restricted items when applicable.

Other jurisdictions

  • Policies vary by regional licenses, taxes and age requirements.
  • Smowka updates compliance rules periodically.
