Secure Trade
No One Pays Blind. No One Ships Blind.
Secure Trade addresses the biggest risk in cross-border trade: paying before you are sure, or shipping before you are paid.
AfricaTrade arranges for funds to be held by an independent bank and released only after the agreed conditions have been met.
You set the terms. We coordinate the process and hold the line on them.
Agree & Deposit
Hold & Verify
Confirm & Release
What's included
- We arrange for funds to be held by an independent banking Party
- Buyer/Seller agree release conditions upfront: payment confirmed, goods dispatched, goods received and inspected
- We verify each stage manually before funds move
- We coordinate this for any deal where trust hasn't been built yet, especially first-time counterparties
Who this is for
Buyers and sellers who have not worked together before and want an independent bank to hold the funds until both sides meet the agreed transaction conditions.
How it works
AfricaTrade arranges for the funds to be held by an independent bank, coordinates the transaction’s conditions, evidence, communication, and agreed milestones, and manages the release process once those conditions are met. A fee applies to each secured transaction.
