BUY AND SELL SAFELY

Safety tips

Prixzi is for local pickup. You meet the other person, inspect the item and pay in person. These habits keep that simple and safe.

Before you meet

  • Keep the conversation on Prixzi so there is a record of what was agreed.
  • Read the condition notes and look closely at the photos. Ask about anything that is unclear.
  • Put the price and pickup details in an offer, so both of you agree to the same terms.

Meeting up

  • Meet in a busy, well-lit public place during the day. Many police stations offer a safe-exchange spot.
  • Bring someone with you if you can, and tell a friend where you are going and when.
  • For large items collected from a home, don’t go alone.
  • If you’re under 18, bring a parent or guardian to every meetup.

Paying

  • Inspect the item before any money changes hands.
  • Pay at the handover. Prixzi never processes payments and will never ask you to pay through a link, gift card or wire transfer.
  • Sellers: confirm the money has actually arrived before you hand the item over. Screenshots of a payment are not proof.

Buying or selling a vehicle

  • Check that the name on the title or registration matches the seller’s ID.
  • Check that the VIN on the vehicle matches the paperwork.
  • Take a test drive, and consider an independent inspection before you agree.
  • Complete the transfer paperwork your local rules require before you hand over money or keys.

Spotting a scam

  • Requests to pay before you have seen the item.
  • Overpayment followed by a request to refund the difference.
  • Pressure to move to another app or email straight away.
  • Requests for codes sent to your phone, or for your Prixzi password or recovery codes.
  • Urgency, sob stories, or a price far below what the item is worth.

Protecting your account

  • Nobody from Prixzi will ever ask for your password or recovery codes.
  • Only enter a recovery code on Prixzi’s own “Reset your password” page.
  • Keep your recovery codes in a password manager or printed at home, not in a message or a photo.

If something goes wrong

  • Report the listing from its page, and block the person so they can no longer message you.
  • If you feel unsafe, leave and call your local emergency number.
  • If you have been scammed, contact your bank and local police. No money passes through Prixzi, so Prixzi cannot reverse a payment.
