EcoHub’s only official website is www.ecohub.co.za.
ecohubza.com is a scam website impersonating EcoHub’s solar and backup-power business. It is not owned, operated or authorised by EcoHub (Pty) Ltd and has no connection to the genuine EcoHub business.
EcoHub has published this warning after customers contacted us believing that solar advertisements and products displayed by ecohubza.com were connected to EcoHub.
Our purpose is to help customers identify the genuine EcoHub website and avoid sending money, personal information or order details to an unrelated operator.
This warning relates specifically to EcoHub’s solar category
The current impersonation relates specifically to EcoHub’s solar and backup-power category. As of 29 July 2026, ecohubza.com is advertising lithium batteries, solar inverters and related solar and backup-power equipment.
We have not observed ecohubza.com advertising EcoHub’s juicers, kitchen appliances, health appliances, air-quality products or other non-solar product categories.
This is therefore a warning about an impersonation affecting EcoHub’s solar and backup-power business. It is not a warning about the genuine EcoHub business or its other product categories.
However, ecohubza.com has no connection to EcoHub (Pty) Ltd in any product category.
How to distinguish the two websites
The website addresses are different:
- Official EcoHub website: ecohub.co.za
- Scam website impersonating EcoHub’s solar business: ecohubza.com
The scam domain adds the letters “za” to the EcoHub name and uses a .com domain. It is not an EcoHub website.
How the Google advertisements may mislead customers
The operators of ecohubza.com have advertised solar products through sponsored Google Shopping listings using the name “Eco Hub ZA”.
These advertisements may appear alongside EcoHub’s genuine Google advertisements, products and search results.
In some Google search layouts, EcoHub’s genuine Google Business Profile may also appear below or near an advertisement for ecohubza.com. The genuine profile displays EcoHub’s real telephone number, business information and established five-star customer reviews.
This placement may cause customers to assume that EcoHub’s telephone number, reviews and reputation belong to, or verify, the advertiser operating ecohubza.com.
They do not. EcoHub’s Google Business Profile, telephone number, customer reviews and trading history relate only to EcoHub (Pty) Ltd and the official website ecohub.co.za.
The appearance of EcoHub’s genuine Business Profile near an advertisement for ecohubza.com does not mean that the advertisement belongs to EcoHub. It also does not mean that EcoHub’s customer reviews verify or endorse ecohubza.com.
Why EcoHub is publishing this warning
EcoHub values the trust customers place in our business. Customers should be able to identify the genuine EcoHub website before placing an order, sharing personal information or making payment.
By publishing the correct website address, independent supplier confirmation, customer review links and direct contact information, we hope to prevent customers from losing money or dealing with the wrong party.
Anyone who is uncertain about an EcoHub advertisement, quotation, invoice, order or payment request is encouraged to contact us directly before making payment.
