Safe deals, by design
Most marketplace problems start before the meeting: fake buyers, courier links, no-shows. MOVD is built to stop them before they reach you.
Start sellingWhat protects you
Contacts stay hiddenPhone numbers, emails, links and handles are masked in chat until a buyer pays a reservation. No spam calls, no WhatsApp scams.
Scam links get flaggedMessages with payment or 'courier' links are marked as a likely scam before you open them.
Real people onlyEvery account confirms its email with a code and adds a mobile number before selling.
A deposit against no-showsBuyers pay AED 19–59 to reserve a pickup slot. If they don't come, half goes to the seller.
QR handoverThe buyer shows a QR or 4-digit code; the seller scans it. That proves the pickup happened and closes the deal.
You pay the seller, not usThe item price goes from buyer to seller in person. MOVD never holds your money for the item.
One item, one listingPhoto fingerprints stop the same item being posted twice or stolen from another listing.
Item on siteSellers confirm with a fresh photo that the item is still there; the badge shows how recently.
Good habits for every meetup
- Meet in the lobby or at the door of a building you know.
- Check the item works before you pay.
- Pay at pickup, never in advance by bank link.
- Book the gate pass early for gated communities.
- Keep the chat on MOVD so we can help if something goes wrong.
Questions
Why can't I see the seller's number?
To stop spam and scams, contacts open only after a paid reservation. Until then, chat on MOVD.
What if the buyer doesn't show up?
The reservation fee is split: half goes to the seller as credit. Repeated no-shows get a strike.
Someone sent me a payment link. What do I do?
Don't open it and report the chat. MOVD and real buyers never send payment or courier links.
