YormeHut offers more than 300 payment methods to buy and sell between Users. Some of these payment methods require additional caution. As a seller, you should be aware of these specifics to increase the safety of your funds and have an overall pleasant experience on YormeHut.
Cash Payments
- Ensure that the buyer deposits cash in your name, and asks for the receipt.
- Make sure that you are trading with the actual person making the deposit. Avoid dealing with third parties in such situations.
Online Wallets
- Ensure that the buyer’s account is verified on the wallet service provider (i.e. verified PayPal account).
- Ask for the buyer’s ID. Make sure the user’s full name matches both their ID as well as their online wallet account.
- Ensure that you are trading with the owner of the account and that no third parties are involved.
- For extra precaution, you can ask the buyer to write on a piece of paper the confirmation of the purchase along with the trade ID, including the trade amount, and take a picture of it. In case of a chargeback, you can show this picture as evidence.
- Paypal specific tips:
- Ask for a selfie with ID and a note saying, “I am making payment of x.xx to email address + real name.”
- Make sure the person has sufficient balance in their account and they pay directly from their account. If they pay by card, a chargeback is much less likely to occur. Stick to low amounts and limit new buyers to one trade per day/week to limit chargeback risks.
- Accept payments only from verified PayPal accounts to ensure they have a bank account linked to it. This will help in case of chargebacks as PayPal will have information about such users.
- Make sure that payment comes as a single transaction from the PayPal account owner.
- Prefer payments as “Friends and Family”.
Debit/Credit Cards
- This method is just as risky as online wallets as you could easily be charged back. Use the same precautions as for online wallets.
Gift Cards
- To avoid gift card deactivation, ask for a receipt and make sure the gift card is bought with cash.
- Be aware of card resellers. If the card was obtained from third parties, there is a risk of the card becoming invalid during or after the trade. Ask everyone to provide a picture with their username and trade ID.
- Be careful when accepting e-codes or gift cards bought with debit/ credit cards, as any debit/ credit card purchase can be charged back.
