6 Ways We Protect Every Buyer

Escrow Payment

Your payment is held securely by Handovr — released to the seller only after successful physical verification.

In-Person 16-Point Verification

A trained agent visits the seller's location before handover. We execute our thorough 16-point diagnostic checklist.

Legal Tax Invoice

Every transaction generates a tax invoice with IMEI, date, and both party details. Admissible as legal proof.

Open-Box & 48h Protection

Inspect the device during delivery. Plus, enjoy 48 hours of protection for any undisclosed functional defects.

No Stranger Contact

Your phone number and address are never shared with the other party. All communication is managed securely.

Verification Rejection Refund

If our agent finds any undisclosed mismatch — your order is cancelled and 100% refunded in 3-5 business days.

For Sellers

4 Ways We Protect Every Seller

Paid at Pickup

You receive your payout the moment our agent verifies and picks up the device. UPI or bank transfer.

Ownership Transfer Proof

A tax invoice proves you no longer own the device, protecting you from future claims.

No Spam Buyers

Buyers can't call directly. Only serious order requests come through our platform.

Zero Chargeback Risk

Once verified and handed over, your earnings are locked and 100% protected against false claims or returns.

Seller Reputation

How the Trust Score Works

Our public trust score system is currently under development. Soon, every seller will have a score from 0–100 based on ID verification, listing accuracy, and completed sales history.

Common Scam Patterns to Avoid

Off-Platform Payments
HIGH RISK

Never pay outside Handovr. Anyone asking for GPay/PhonePe directly is likely scamming.

Fake 'Handovr Agents'
HIGH RISK

Our agents always show official ID and follow a fixed protocol. Contact us if anything feels off.

Too Good Prices
MEDIUM RISK

Listings priced drastically below market value are red flags. If it feels wrong, report it.

Pressure to Rush
MEDIUM RISK

Legitimate sellers are patient. If pressured to act instantly — that's a red flag.
