Proprietary trust stack
Scams don't survive here.
Four tools working together so every meetup ends with a handshake, not a police report.
Protected payments · 1.5%
The seller gets paid only after you have the item.
Meet in person or have it shipped. Either way, Zippalo holds the money until you're happy.
🤝
Meetup Lock™ · meet in person
Your payment is held. Inspect the item, then the seller scans your QR code and gets paid on the spot. Walk away free if it’s wrong.
🚚
Zippalo Protect™ · have it shipped
Your payment is held while it ships. The seller is paid when you confirm it arrived. Not shipped in 4 days? Full refund.
Serial Vault™
Stolen gear gets stopped at the door.
