Follow the money

Your money waits until your item arrives.

This is how every order on 9jaCycle works, from the moment you pay to the moment the seller is paid.

  1. 01 · A seller lists it

    Real photos, a fair price.

    A seller photographs the item and lists it in minutes. Their phone number is verified, and their rating only counts orders that actually completed.

  2. 02 · You pay. We hold it.

    Your money goes into escrow, not to the seller.

    Pay by card or transfer through Paystack. The money is held by us, recorded in a ledger that is only ever added to, and nobody can touch it yet.

  3. 03 · It comes to you

    The seller sends it, or you collect it.

    The seller sends it by rider and you get the rider's number, or you meet and collect it in person. The seller has 5 days; if it isn't sent, the order cancels and you're refunded automatically, without chasing anyone.

  4. 04 · You check it

    48 hours to make sure it's right.

    It arrives: open it, check it, and confirm. Collecting in person? Check it there, then give the seller your code. If it isn't what was described, report it, and the money stays held while a person reads your case.

  5. 05 · Then the seller is paid

    Only now does the money move.

    You confirm, or hand over your code, and the seller's wallet is credited. Everyone got what they agreed to — that is the whole idea.
