“We recommended our users to conduct transactions in person, but not always the right product there is in this city. In addition, the market is developing: with the logistic companies and financial instruments, it is possible to obtain the goods from another city the next day and pay for it by transferring money to seller, – says Sergey gapochenko, Director of OLX in Ukraine and Central Asia. – Of course, it is very convenient and fast, but there is a risk of fraud. To completely eliminate this risk, we run a Safe transaction and provide a secure environment to make payments from card to card”.
