Escrow-protected marketplace

Every purchase protected, every delivery covered.

Vendy holds your payment in escrow, gets your order delivered — by a fellow member or standard delivery — and releases funds to the seller only once you confirm your item arrived as described.

Your money is safe at every step

Escrow is the heart of Vendy. Instead of paying a stranger directly, your money sits with us until the deal is done — so neither side can be left out of pocket.

01

You pay in

Your payment for the item and delivery goes into escrow the moment you order.

02

We hold it

Funds stay locked and visible as “In Escrow” while your order makes its way to you.

03

It’s released

Once you confirm receipt, escrow pays the seller and settles the delivery — automatically.

Spend, Save, Earn — in one place!

One account, three ways to use it

Buy, sell, and deliver from a single login. Switch roles freely — no separate sign-ups, no extra accounts.

Buy with confidence

Shop and pay into escrow — never straight to the seller. Inspect your item on arrival, then release payment — or, when the seller offers it, return it or claim warranty.

Sell and get paid

List items or services and reach buyers who are ready to pay. Your money is released from escrow to your wallet the moment the buyer confirms the deal.

Deliver and earn

Turn spare time into income. Bid on delivery jobs near you, agree a fee with the buyer, and get paid to your wallet on every completed trip.

How a Vendy order works

From checkout to confirmation, every order follows the same protected path — so you always know where your money and your parcel are.

01

Place your order

Pay for the item and delivery. Your money goes into escrow — held safely by Vendy, not sent to the seller yet.

02

Choose how it’s delivered

Have a fellow Vendy member deliver for a fee you agree together, or use standard delivery. Either way, the delivery fee is locked in escrow too.

03

Track it to your door

Follow every step — pickup from the seller, in transit, and delivery — right up until it reaches you.

04

Inspect during protection

Once delivered, payment stays in escrow while you check your item. Keep it — or, if the seller offers returns or warranty, start a claim when something’s off.

05

Release the payment

When you confirm you are happy, escrow releases: the seller is paid and the delivery fee is settled. Everyone is covered.

After delivery

Protection doesn’t stop at your door

When your order arrives, payment stays in escrow while you check everything over. Escrow and disputes cover every order — and many sellers add returns or a warranty on top.

Return an item

When the seller offers returns: changed your mind, or it arrived not as described? Start a return within the protection window and get your money back from escrow.

Claim warranty

When a listing includes a warranty, covered items that stop working can be repaired, replaced, or refunded under the seller’s published terms.

Raise a dispute

If you and the seller can’t agree, escalate to Vendy. Our team reviews the evidence from both sides and decides — funds stay locked until it’s resolved.

Accept & pay early

Love your item and don’t want to wait? Release payment to the seller straight away and close the deal on your terms.

Frequently asked questions

What is Vendy?
Vendy is an escrow-protected marketplace. Buyers pay into escrow, sellers list items and services, and delivery is handled by a fellow member or by standard delivery — with payment released only once the buyer confirms the deal.
How does escrow protect me?
When you order, your payment is held by Vendy instead of going straight to the seller. It is only released once you confirm your item arrived as described — so your money is never at risk while a deal is in progress.
Who delivers my order?
You choose. Have a fellow Vendy member deliver — they offer a fee and you agree it — or use standard delivery. Either way you can track your order, and the delivery fee stays in escrow until it’s completed.
Can I return an item or claim warranty?
It depends on the seller. Many listings include a return policy or a warranty, shown on the product and saved to your order — when they do, a protection window after delivery lets you return the item for a refund or open a warranty claim. Escrow protection and disputes cover every order regardless.
What if something goes wrong with a deal?
You can raise a dispute. Vendy reviews the evidence from both the buyer and the seller and makes a decision. Your funds stay locked in escrow until the dispute is resolved.
How do I earn as a delivery agent?
Register as an agent, set the areas you cover, then browse open delivery jobs and submit your fee. Once a buyer accepts, complete the pickup and delivery and your fee is paid to your wallet, minus a small platform commission.
How do I fund my wallet?
Go to Dashboard → Add Funds and pay with a debit or credit card or a bank transfer through Paystack. Your balance updates instantly.
Are there any fees?
Vendy charges a small platform fee on completed transactions, and delivery agents keep their fee minus a small commission. The exact amounts are always shown before you confirm anything.
