An escrow service between buyer and seller through a trusted third party (Waffy) that holds the payment, oversees shipping, and releases funds once the buyer confirms receipt.
The buyer initiates a Trusted Purchase request on the listing, then pays the full amount plus the service fee to the trustee (Waffy). Once the item arrives, they receive it, inspect it, and confirm it matches the description within the allowed window.
Waffy receives the payment from the buyer and holds it in escrow, then notifies the seller that funds are secured so shipping can begin. The amount is released to the seller only after the buyer confirms receipt. Waffy is not a party to the sale contract — its role is strictly to safeguard the rights of both sides.
The seller receives a notification from Waffy that payment has been secured, ships the item to the buyer’s registered address with the courier, and receives the funds once the buyer confirms delivery and that the item matches the description.
