Buyer Protection

Send money and hope? Not anymore.

We take the payment and we do the delivery. That's why we can stand behind every order.

  • We hold your money from checkout until it’s in your hands.
  • 48 hours after delivery to report a problem, with photos.
  • Refuse it at the door and the courier takes it back.
  • If there’s a dispute, we decide. Not the seller.
  • Paid by card? Refunds go back to your card.

A reported problem: money on hold, automatic refund if the seller doesn’t answer

Price too high? Make an offer

On negotiable items, name your price. If the seller says yes, it’s held for you.

Ask before you buy

Chat with the seller in the app. Your phone number stays private.

Real reviews only

Only people who actually bought from a seller can review them.

Look for the blue tick

Business stores are checked by PairRide and carry a verified badge.

Know the return policy

Every store shows its return policy on the listing.

Something feels off?

Report a listing or a chat in two taps.

Selling on Buy

No more "I've sent it, check your account"

No fake payment screenshots. No meeting strangers for cash. The buyer pays before you pack, we pick it up from you, and you get paid once they have it.

As a person

Got something you don't use? Snap a few photos in the Sell tab, set a price and post it. Where personal selling is open, most listings go live right away.

As a business

Open a store in the PairRide business dashboard. List your stock, pack orders, chat with buyers and get paid to your store wallet.

Questions

Questions people ask

When does the seller get paid?

After you have the item. Once it’s delivered you have 48 hours to check it. Tap confirm if you’re happy, or let the 48 hours pass. Either way, the seller is never paid before the item reaches you.

What if it’s not what I ordered?

Report it from the order within the 48 hours and add photos. The seller can refund you, offer part of your money back, or ask for the item back. Can’t agree? We decide. If the seller ignores you, you’re refunded automatically.

Can I check it before I accept it?

Yes, and you should. Open it while the courier waits. Happy? Give them your drop-off PIN. Not happy? Tell them you’re refusing it and they take it back.

Where does my refund go?

Paid by card? It goes back to your card. Paid by wallet or transfer? It goes back to your PairRide wallet.

Can I collect instead of delivery?

On some listings, yes. You still pay in the app. Show the seller your collection code and they hand it over.

The seller asked me to pay them directly. Should I?

No. The moment you pay outside the app, you lose all your protection. Report the chat. Asking for that is against the rules.

Check it before anyone gets paid.
