Safety comes first

Giving and collecting should feel good. A few simple habits keep everyone safe.

• Never pay anything

  Not a deposit, a delivery charge or a “holding” fee. Everything here is free, so anyone asking for money is a scammer.

• Meet in a public place

  Choose a busy spot in daylight, such as a shop, a chowk or a cafe. For large items, have someone with you.

• Keep personal details private

  Don't share your citizenship number, bank details, one-time codes or home address in a message.

• Check the giver's profile

  Look for verification badges and completed giveaways. A new account isn't bad, but take a little more care.
