Making online deals in Kenya safe to do

Who we are

Kenya Escrow is a Kenyan escrow service built for the way Kenyans actually buy and sell — on Jiji, Facebook Marketplace, WhatsApp, Instagram, and through direct person-to-person deals. We're a phone-first platform: no accounts, no apps, no paperwork. A transaction link and M-Pesa are all you need.

Why we exist

Online fraud in Kenya thrives on one structural flaw: someone always has to go first. The buyer pays first and hopes the seller delivers, or the seller delivers first and hopes the buyer pays. Kenya Escrow removes that flaw — the payment goes into escrow, the delivery happens, and the money moves only when the agreed conditions are met.

What we built

• Instant M-Pesa escrow — STK push payment into escrow in seconds, immediate release on confirmation.
• Zero accounts — no registration for buyers or sellers; transactions run on secure links.
• Real notifications — SMS & WhatsApp alerts keep both parties informed at every step.
• Fair disputes — a human-reviewed process when things go wrong, with evidence from both sides.
