Three steps to a
scam-free transaction

Whether you're the buyer or the seller, TrustParcel protects both sides of every deal.

Step 01
🤝
Create the Deal

Either the buyer or seller creates a transaction on TrustParcel. Describe the item, set the value, and share the secure link with the other party.

Step 02
💳
Buyer Pays Securely

The buyer pays via PayFast. Funds are held securely by TrustParcel — the seller receives nothing until delivery is confirmed. No fake POPs.

Step 03
Deliver & Get Paid

The parcel is handed over and the QR code is scanned to verify collection and delivery. Once the buyer confirms receipt, the seller gets paid instantly.

Everything you need
to transact safely

🔒
Escrow Payment

Buyer's funds are held securely and only released to the seller after confirmed delivery. No payment until you're happy.

📲
QR Verification

Every transaction gets a unique QR code. Scanned at collection and delivery — creating an unbreakable chain of custody.

📦
Status Tracking

Follow your parcel from Created → Paid → Collected → Delivered → Completed in real time with a full audit trail.

⚠️
Dispute Protection

Something wrong? Raise a dispute and funds are frozen immediately while our team investigates. Buyer and seller protected.

🧾
Full Transaction History

Every event is logged with a timestamp and linked to a user — creating a clear record if anything is ever disputed.

Built for South Africa

PayFast payments in ZAR. Designed for Facebook Marketplace, Gumtree and OLX. No international complexity.

The scams
we solve

South African online marketplaces are riddled with fraud. TrustParcel was built specifically to eliminate the most common scams.

🔐
Funds held until delivery confirmed

Sellers can't disappear with your money. Payment is locked until you confirm the parcel arrived and is correct.

📲
QR-verified handover

No more "I sent it, I swear." Every handover is recorded with a QR scan — timestamps, location, user.

🛡️
Dispute resolution

If something goes wrong, raise a dispute. Funds are frozen immediately and our team reviews the evidence.

🚫
Fake Proof of Payment

"I've paid, here's my POP" — but the money never arrives. With TrustParcel, payment is verified by our system before the seller ships.

SOLVED
📦
Empty Box / Wrong Item

Buyer receives a brick in a box. The dispute window gives you time to inspect before funds are released to the seller.

SOLVED
👻
Seller Disappears After Payment

Classic Facebook Marketplace scam. With TrustParcel, the seller never touches your money until you confirm delivery.

SOLVED
💸
Buyer Refuses to Pay After Delivery

Seller ships but buyer claims they never received it. QR scan at delivery proves the parcel arrived — seller gets paid.
