The faster way to get Gumtree alerts.
JDMarket is a Gumtree alert app for UK buyers. Tell it what you’re hunting and your town, and it watches the searches you choose around the clock — resolving your nearest of 261 UK Gumtree local areas automatically, checking every minute on fast tiers, and scoring each new ad 1–5 with AI against your plain-language rules before sending it to Telegram and iPhone push. Alerts fire only for ads genuinely posted in the last ~24 hours — posted age is checked on the ad’s own detail page, so re-bumped old listings stay silent — and a page-2 catch-up sweep picks up bursts of new ads between checks. Gumtree is included on every managed plan for UK accounts, alongside Facebook Marketplace, from $30/mo. One plain limit: we cover Gumtree UK only, not Gumtree Australia.
The short answer
- JDMarket watches Gumtree across all 261 UK local areas on every managed plan — Basic $30/mo, Pro $45/mo, Premium $80/mo. Fast tiers check every minute (Pro: 2 of your 10 watches; Premium: all 10).
- You only get genuinely new ads: JDMarket reads the posted age on each ad’s own page and alerts inside a ~24-hour window — re-bumped and renewed listings are filtered out, and a page-2 catch-up sweep catches bursts of new ads between checks.
- Every ad is AI-scored 1–5 against your plain-language rules and delivered to Telegram and iPhone push — the iPhone app has been live on the App Store since June 2026; Android is coming soon.
- UK only: JDMarket does not cover Gumtree Australia. UK accounts get Gumtree and Facebook Marketplace in one app, and your nearest Gumtree area is resolved automatically from your town.

Gumtree’s own alert behavior was checked first-party on gumtree.com’s UK help pages on 2026-07-02: Gumtree offers alert emails you can switch off per alert plus app notifications; we found no published cadence, so we don’t characterize their speed. Gumtree’s alerts are free — a real advantage we don’t pretend away. JDMarket figures are code-verified. The Basic trial is 3 days with a card on file and auto-renews unless cancelled (cancel anytime); Pro and Premium are card-upfront with no trial. JDMarket covers Gumtree UK only — not Gumtree Australia.
Every-minute checks — and Gumtree has no approval delay
On Facebook Marketplace, every alert tool waits on Facebook’s own ~7-minute listing approval before a new listing is even visible. Gumtree has no such approval step — new ads surface straight away — so what matters is how often your search is checked. JDMarket’s Pro plan ($45/mo) checks 2 of your 10 watches every minute and the other 8 every 5; Premium ($80/mo) checks all 10 every minute; Basic ($30/mo) checks every 5–10 minutes. When a new ad passes your filters, the alert is usually sent about a second after we detect it.
Only genuinely new ads — re-bumps stay silent
Sellers renew and bump old ads to float them back to the top of the results. JDMarket reads the posted age on each ad’s own detail page and only alerts on ads genuinely posted in the last ~24 hours. A new watch’s first check sets a quiet baseline instead of flooding you with everything already listed, and a page-2 catch-up sweep makes sure a burst of new ads between checks doesn’t slip past the first page.
Type your town — we find your Gumtree area
Gumtree splits the UK into local areas; JDMarket covers all 261 of them. You just type your town — accent- and spelling-tolerant matching plus a nearest-area fallback means a village or suburb resolves to the right Gumtree area automatically. The same one-city setup drives every marketplace you use: a Facebook Marketplace watch adds a distance ring (1–500 km — a Facebook-only filter; classifieds sources like Gumtree use area selection instead).
Gumtree car alerts, filtered by AI
A vehicle watch adds year range, mileage cap, transmission, fuel type, and a different budget per model-year (2018–2020 under one cap, 2021+ under a higher one). These are JDMarket filters, not Gumtree search options: our AI reads each ad’s details and scores it 1–5 against your rules, and a look-alike gate keeps a “Ford Fiesta” watch from firing on Focuses. That’s the difference between an alert feed you skim and one you act on.
Questions
Does Gumtree send its own notifications for saved searches?+
Yes — Gumtree offers free alert emails and app notifications, and its UK help pages describe how to switch them off per alert (checked 2026-07-02). We found no published cadence for those alerts, so we won’t characterize their speed. JDMarket is for buyers who want more than an inbox: every-minute checks on fast tiers, a 1–5 AI score on every ad, re-bump filtering, and delivery to Telegram and iPhone push.
How fast are JDMarket’s Gumtree alerts?+
Fast tiers check every minute — Pro ($45/mo) runs 2 of your 10 watches every minute, Premium ($80/mo) runs all 10 — and Basic ($30/mo) checks every 5–10 minutes. When we detect a new ad that passes your filters, the alert is usually sent about a second later. And unlike Facebook Marketplace, where every tool waits on Facebook’s own ~7-minute listing approval, Gumtree ads have no approval delay.
Does JDMarket cover Gumtree Australia?+
No — plainly: JDMarket covers Gumtree UK only, across all 261 UK local areas. Marketplace availability follows your account country: UK accounts get Gumtree plus Facebook Marketplace, US accounts get Craigslist, Canadian accounts get Kijiji — all included on every managed plan.
Can I set up Gumtree car alerts?+
Yes. A vehicle watch adds year range, mileage cap, transmission, fuel type, and per-model-year budgets, and our AI checks each ad’s details against those rules — these are JDMarket filters applied on top of Gumtree, not Gumtree’s own search options. Only ads genuinely posted in the last ~24 hours trigger alerts, so re-listed cars don’t ping you again.
How much does it cost, and is there a free trial?+
Gumtree watches are included on every managed plan for UK accounts, and every plan carries 10 active watches. Basic is $30/mo (2 watches check every 5 minutes, the other 8 every 10) and starts with a 3-day free trial — card on file, auto-renews after the trial, cancel anytime. Pro is $45/mo (2 watches every minute, the other 8 every 5) and Premium is $80/mo (all 10 watches every minute); both are card-upfront with no trial.
