WHAT PAKSTOOR STOPS

The risks every marketplace faces. Designed out.

Your money stays protected through delivery and the inspection window. The seller can’t touch a cent before that. If something goes wrong, the funds freeze while the issue is reviewed.

THE GAP

"I sent the EFT, here's the proof…"

Forged screenshot. Money never landed. Item shipped, gone forever.

ON PAKSTOOR

No money, no shipping.

The buyer pays into TradeSafe trust first. The seller sees "Funds received" before printing the waybill.

THE GAP

"My driver collected it: must've lost it."

Random driver. No tracking number. No insurance. Buyer loses everything.

ON PAKSTOOR

Pakstoor books the courier.

A verified courier waybill is on file from the moment the seller arranges shipping. Live tracking the whole way.

THE GAP

"Wrong item arrived. Seller's ghosting me."

Already paid. Already shipped. Nothing left to lever.

ON PAKSTOOR

Open a Formal Protected Review. Funds remain protected.

Pakstoor reviews the evidence, courier record, and escrow state. Where needed, the case may be escalated through the payment provider, courier, insurer, or external process.

THE GAP

"Account-holder dispute, will refund Monday."

Monday never comes. The seller controls the refund.

ON PAKSTOOR

Refunds and payouts run through the escrow provider, not the seller.

When a refund is approved through Formal Protected Review or another qualifying release condition, the escrow provider executes the refund through the supported payment process.
