In traditional livestock trading, sending money to a stranger is a leap of faith. Garabaly eliminates that risk with per-party staged escrow, encrypted transactions, and fraud detection. One escrow hold, per-party allocation — each provider gets paid as their step is completed.

One 6-character code per order — even multiparty bundles. Encrypted with industry-leading security standards and protected by built-in brute-force prevention. For escrow orders, the code is hidden from seller and providers until buyer confirms receipt. One confirmation completes the order and all service bookings simultaneously.
After you receive the livestock and confirm with your code, the seller's payment is held for 24 hours. During this window, you can open a dispute if something is wrong. Service providers (butcher, vet, delivery) get paid immediately — the 24-hour window applies only to the seller's share.
Velocity limits, device fingerprinting, and real-time monitoring protect every transaction. Your wallet is secured with a private PIN and SMS verification.
Per-party escrow tracking visible to all parties — buyer, seller, and providers. Real-time status updates delivered instantly. Escrow countdown timer visible during the 24-hour dispute window. Payment-method-aware labels for cash vs escrow orders. Auditable financial records ensure every CFA franc is accounted for.

Every animal on Garabaly can carry a health certificate from a verified veterinarian. You see the animal's condition before you buy — not after.
Documented health status from licensed veterinarians.
Multiple photos and video of each animal for full transparency.
Sellers record voice notes in local languages describing their livestock.
"Tabaski is in two months and I used to start worrying now — who to trust, where to travel, how to not get cheated. Now I browse from my phone, I negotiate like at the market, and my money stays locked until I enter the confirmation code. But what really changed things? I can see a seller's reviews from past buyers before I spend a single franc."
"Every Tabaski, my family waits for me to send money for the ram. But who buys it? How much did it really cost? With Garabaly, I choose the animal myself from Paris, I pay by Orange Money, and my mother confirms delivery with a code. I can even read the seller's reviews from other buyers — I know who I'm dealing with before I pay."
"I know my animals better than anyone. But at the market, the middleman sets the price. Here, buyers find me directly. I describe my bull in my own voice, in Fulfulde — no typing. Every good transaction builds my reputation. Buyers scan my QR code at the foire and see my reviews, my history. My name means something now beyond my village."
"I raise 200 chickens but my clients were only my neighbours. Now buyers across the city find me. I recorded my descriptions in Mooré — just talking, no typing. After each sale, buyers leave reviews. New customers see those reviews and trust me before we even speak. My QR code is my business card now."
"I used to wait for farmers to hear about me through word of mouth. Now when someone buys an animal on Garabaly, they can book me directly for a health check. After each visit, they rate my service. Those ratings bring me more work than any sign ever could. Steady bookings, guaranteed payment through escrow."
"I sell cattle to buyers in Abidjan but the trust problem was always the same — they don't pay before delivery, I don't ship without payment. Escrow solved that. But what really opened doors is my profile. Buyers across borders scan my QR code and see 50 completed transactions. Trust that used to take years to build now travels with me."
Garabaly doesn't just connect buyers and sellers — it powers the entire supply chain. Buy a cow from a seller in Bamako. Add a veterinarian to inspect it. Add a butcher to prepare the meat.

The seller's payment is held for 24 hours in case you need to dispute. Drag-to-reorder your fulfillment sequence. Per-party escrow — total protection.
