Trust and safety

Safer marketplace habits for Ghana

BusiBazaar verification and moderation reduce risk, but every buyer and seller should independently verify the person, item, service, price, and payment prompt.

Mobile Money and payment

  • • Never disclose your MoMo PIN or OTP.
  • • Read the recipient name and amount before approving.
  • • Treat pressure to pay immediately as a warning sign.
  • • Use traceable, platform-supported payment routes when available.

Products and delivery

  • • Inspect high-value goods in person or use a trusted delivery arrangement.
  • • Check serial numbers, receipts, condition, and accessories.
  • • Avoid advance payment for a product you cannot verify.

Services and rentals

  • • Write down the work scope, price, milestones, and completion date.
  • • Verify the provider identity and business badge.
  • • Do not hand over original identity documents.

When something feels wrong

  • • Stop communicating and do not send money.
  • • Save screenshots and transaction references.
  • • Use Report listing or Report seller so BusiBazaar can investigate.
  • • Contact your bank or mobile network promptly after a suspected fraudulent transfer.
