Clear platform communication protects both buyer and agent and gives support the context needed to review an issue.
Communicate professionally
- Ask only questions needed to identify, source or deliver the item.
- Keep important specifications, price changes and delivery promises on Upfrica.
- Do not pressure buyers, send repeated unwanted messages or misuse private contact details.
Protect accounts and payments
- Never ask for a password, card number or one-time code.
- Do not redirect payment, fees or refunds outside Upfrica.
- Report suspicious requests, prohibited goods or attempted fraud promptly.
Important
Buyer contact information may be used only for the authorised sourcing and delivery purpose.
