Secure Trade
No One Pays Blind. No One Ships Blind.
Secure Trade removes the biggest risk in cross-border trade: paying before you're sure, or shipping before you're paid. We arrange for funds to be held by an independent bank or lawyer, not AfricaTrade, and released only once agreed conditions are met. You set the terms, we 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
- We set clear 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 haven't worked together before and want a neutral party holding funds until both sides deliver.
How it works
We coordinate this manually, deal by deal. A fee applies per secured transaction.
