Creating Saved Searches



Saved Searches are an email notification service where you can have the newest Ads on Gumtree sent to your email address. These searches can be created for an entire category or for a given search term and will be emailed to you immediately, daily, or weekly, depending on your preference. Note: You will need a keyword in your Saved Search to select the Immediate frequency option.

You will receive emails for 90 days from the day you activate the Saved Search.


How do I create a Saved Search?

  • Search on Gumtree for the type of Ads you're interested in.
  • To enable the "Saved Search" function on the website, you will need to select a category and location. The more specific your search, the more relevant your results will be.
  • Tap on the "Save Search" option which will appear near the top left of your search results
  • Select your desired email frequency



  • You can see how many Saved Searches you have and manage them by signing into Gumtree, clicking your name in the top right and selecting the Saved Searches option from the drop-down menu.



How many Saved Searches can I create?
You can have up to 50 active Saved Searches. To create more, you will first need to unsubscribe from an existing active Saved Search.

How can I unsubscribe from a Saved Search?
Every email you receive will have the option to unsubscribe from your Saved Search. Once you click ‘Delete this Saved Search’, you will stop receiving emails. You can also delete a Saved Search from your Gumtree account under the Saved Searches menu, and there is an option to delete all searches.



How often will I receive the emails?
You can choose how often you’d like to be emailed. Emails can be sent immediately, daily, or weekly. You can also change this setting on an existing Saved Search by managing your search in the Saved Searches menu.
