Handshake — you settle locally. BuyerReq matches buyers and nearby sellers. After you Handshake, meet, ship, and pay each other directly. Platform fees stay 0% until we reach 100,000 members. We do not hold cards, run escrow, or guarantee payments like a bank.

Trust on BuyerReq

Policy version 1.0 · effective 7 Sep 2026

BuyerReq does not hold, process, or transfer any money this year (2026). After Handshake, buyers and sellers arrange payment themselves.

Trust on BuyerReq

This page states what BuyerReq actually checks — not marketing slogans.

What BuyerReq verifies

  • Account email ownership when email confirmation is completed
  • Optional identity / business document review when submitted and approved
  • Order and message records tied to the Handshake
  • Report evidence when a case is opened

Verification badges describe what was checked, not a guarantee of honesty.

What sellers declare

Sellers declare condition, ownership, details, photos, and shipping or pickup terms. BuyerReq does not independently authenticate every item unless a specific check is published for that case.

Money

BuyerReq does not hold, process, or transfer purchase money in Handshake mode. Handshake records that the buyer and seller agreed. Meet, shipping, and payment stay between them.

How Handshake works

The buyer accepts an offer, then confirms Handshake to record the deal. After that, both parties arrange meet, shipping, and money themselves.

How to report suspicious activity

Use in-app report controls where available, or email support@buyerreq.com with the request/order URL, handles, and evidence.
