Trust Center

How Bilu verifies people, protects payments, and responds when something looks wrong.

Trust at Bilu Store starts with escrow. Bilu Store Technology P.L.C., based in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, holds each payment until the buyer confirms the handover with a 6-digit code in the Android app. The service fee is 5% for free sellers and 2% for Pro sellers, taken only when a sale completes. If a deal goes wrong, the Trust team reviews the dispute by hand.

How escrow protects you

Money only moves after the item has been received and checked.
