About payment on Cariboo

Cariboo is built around trust and local connection. That’s why we recommend cash on meetup for almost every deal.

How it works

  1. Find something you like and message the seller.
  2. Agree on a public place to meet.
  3. Inspect the item in person.
  4. Pay cash and take your item home.

💵 Cash on meetup is free and instant

When you choose cash, your listing is activated immediately. No fees, no waiting.

Online payments

We’re building online payments for convenience, but they are currently mocked for testing. When live, they will include buyer protection and escrow-style holding for high-value items.
