iOXad Guides
Practical local marketplace guides for selling, buying, and coordinating better deals.
Buyer setup
Complete My Hub before buying
To commit to a purchase, users need both private pickup details and at least one Quick Pay option saved in My Hub. This keeps local deals prepared before a buyer asks a seller to hold an item.

FAQ
Is my location private?
Yes — Nearby Pin keeps you discoverable but never trackable. Share your exact pickup address only on your approval. Deal Clock and private handoffs mean no pressure, no exposure.
FAQ
Is my address public?
Absolutely not. User-controlled visibility lets you hide or show any details on your terms. No endless exposure — chats auto-expire for low-pressure interactions.
FAQ
Do you sell my data?
Your data stays yours. We don't sell or share it. Our business is built on transactions — not data resale.
FAQ
If a meetup feels unsafe, what should I do?
Trust your instincts — don't go, walk away, and contact local authorities if needed. Use in-app tools to cancel the deal and rate the other party so we can flag patterns over time. Your safety decisions stay in your hands; we give you the tools to document issues and protect future buyers and sellers.
FAQ
Is payment secure?
Yes. iOXad uses secure payment processing for platform charges. Buyer-to-seller payments happen directly between the parties.
FAQ
How do refunds work?
iOXad refunds only its own charges, including ad purchases, upgrades, and ZIP leases, when eligible. iOXad does not refund or mediate direct buyer-to-seller transactions.
FAQ
What if an item is not as described?
Buyers should review the listing carefully before meeting. At the meetup, both sides should inspect the item and use common sense before completing the deal. If the item isn't acceptable, the buyer can decline the purchase. iOXad facilitates the connection only and is not responsible for disputes about item condition after the buyer and seller meet.
FAQ
Can I cancel a deal?
Simply unlove the item any time before you commit to opt out. Once you commit, the deal is locked. No-shows receive bad ratings and relisted ads display a 5-day badge.
FAQ
How do I know if sellers and buyers are real?
Basic phone and email verification plus a rating system. Repeat traders build trust scores over time. Report fakes — we ban fast.
FAQ
What is a Deal Clock for?
Deal Clock runs at every ad status step — quick responses boost your rating, slow ones hurt it. A 2-hour limit expires inactive deals and relists the item automatically. Keeps engagement high and deals moving.
FAQ
How do ratings work?
After each trade, both parties rate privately — 1 to 5 stars for item quality and the buyer-seller interaction. Fast Deal Clock responses keep your DC-Score high. Public scores build trust — low-rated users receive warnings or bans.
FAQ
Can I trade services, not just items?
Yes — list gigs with the same safety tools. Deal Clock ensures timely delivery. Barter goods for services direct between buyer and seller.
