Osclass

Osclass is an open-source classifieds application written in PHP for MySQL databases. Operators install it on their own hosting and use it to run local marketplaces, property and car listings, job boards or other niche selling sites, keeping control of the domain, database and moderation rules.

The project began in 2011. According to its current website, the original company behind it shut down in 2019, and OsclassPoint took over development in 2020, starting with version 4.0. Numbering later jumped to 8.0, and the 8.x line has received releases through 2026, including PHP 8.5 support in January 2026. OsclassPoint is run by AB profitrade, s.r.o., registered in Slovakia.

The core is free under the Apache License 2.0. OsclassPoint also sells premium themes and plugins, such as payments, chat and custom attributes, through a separate market.
