In this press statement issued to us, according to the MD, Lukas Zels; “SafePay™ is a necessary evolution in the Nigerian e-Commerce industry as it was introduced to eradicate the nefarious activities of fraudsters online and to instill confidence in both buyers and sellers online.”
The prevailing payment solution within Nigeria’s e-Commerce space is COD –cash on delivery or POD –Payment on delivery. This model works fine for e-Commerce transactions for those within the same state where both sellers and buyers can meet physically to exchange products for cash.
Over time, the challenge has often been with those outside the seller or buyer’s location/state where payment has to be made before product is delivered. With the introduction of SafePay™, buying or selling online from anywhere in Nigeria is now secured; people can now trade with confidence!

If goods bought are not delivered to the buyer or doesn’t meet the expected conditions as displayed online, Kaymu refunds the money paid to the buyer and the seller gets their goods back from the buyer.
