Pay on pickup

Safety tips

Most deals on Rekid go well. A few simple rules keep you out of trouble.

When you meet

  • Meet in daylight, somewhere busy, for example near a big store.
  • Check the item before you pay: seams, zippers, wheels, straps.
  • For a car seat, ask the year it was made and whether it was ever in an accident.

Paying

  • Pay on pickup, once the item is in your hands.
  • Do not send money in advance to someone you do not know.
  • Rekid never asks for card details and never sends payment links.

Signs of a scam

  • The price is far too low for something new or expensive.
  • They rush you and want to talk in another app.
  • You are asked for a code from a text message, your card details or a payment through a link.
  • The seller will not meet, but asks for money for “delivery”.

Report it

If a listing or a person seems suspicious, tap “Report” on the listing, on the profile or in the conversation. You can also block the person. Moderators check every report.
