Stay safe while trading locally.
A little care makes a difference.
Check the offer
Ask questions, request current photos and inspect products where possible. Check what a service includes, how it is priced and what happens if plans change.
Meet and pay carefully
Choose a public meeting place when practical. Be cautious about advance-payment requests, unusually low prices and pressure to act quickly. Agree on delivery or service arrangements directly with the seller.
Know what the labels mean
A confirmed contact indicates that the contact number was checked. Founding membership recognises early participation. Neither is a guarantee of identity, quality or a transaction.
Report a concern
Use Report offer or Report shop on the relevant page. You can report without an account. Include useful details, and keep the confirmation reference. Sellers can request help or a moderation review from their workspace.
Keep personal information private
Use an approximate area for offers. Avoid publishing a home address, identification documents, banking credentials or private customer details.
