Safety Tips for Buyers

Protect yourself when purchasing livestock

Verify Halal Certification

Always look for the green "Halal Verified" badge. This means the seller's halal certification has been verified by our team. If there's no badge, request certification details before purchasing.

Inspect Before Buying

Whenever possible, inspect the livestock in person. Check for health, weight, and overall condition. Don't rely solely on photos - see the animal with your own eyes.

Meet in Safe Locations

Arrange to meet sellers at their farm or a public location. Avoid isolated areas. Bring a friend or family member if possible for added security.

Use Secure Payments

Once integrated, use our secure payment system. For now, prefer bank transfers over cash. Keep all transaction records, receipts, and communication logs.

Check Seller Reviews

Review the seller's profile, response time, and feedback from other buyers. Established sellers with good track records are generally more reliable.

Ask Detailed Questions

Don't hesitate to ask about breed, age, weight, health records, vaccination status, and feeding practices. Legitimate sellers will be transparent and helpful.

Safety Tips for Sellers

Build trust and protect your business

Upload Halal Certification

Upload your valid halal certification to get verified. This builds trust with buyers and can increase your sales by up to 300%. Ensure certification is current and from recognized bodies.

Provide Accurate Information

Be completely honest about your livestock's age, weight, health status, and any defects. Use recent, clear photos. Misleading information damages reputation and may result in account suspension.

Respond Promptly

Reply to buyer inquiries within 24 hours. Quick, professional responses build trust and increase conversion rates significantly. Our data shows 80% higher success with fast responses.

Protect Your Privacy

Use Halal Agro's messaging system for initial communication. Only share personal contact details (phone, address) with serious, verified buyers.

Document Everything

Keep detailed records of all sales including buyer information, payment receipts, delivery confirmations, and communication logs. This protects you in case of disputes.

Critical Warning Signs

Red Flags to Watch For

Be alert to these warning signs

Prices Too Good to Be True

HIGH

If a price is significantly (30%+) lower than market rate, be suspicious. Scammers often use unrealistic prices to lure victims.

Pressure to Pay Immediately

HIGH

Legitimate sellers won't pressure you to pay immediately or send money before inspection. Take your time to make informed decisions.

No Halal Certification

CRITICAL

Be wary of sellers who can't provide halal certification or avoid questions about it. This is a major red flag for halal products.

Unusual Payment Requests

CRITICAL

Avoid sellers who insist on payment outside the platform or request unusual methods like gift cards, cryptocurrency, or Western Union.

Poor or Evasive Communication

MEDIUM

Sellers who provide vague answers, have inconsistent information, or avoid video verification should be approached with extreme caution.
