The missing trust layer for social commerce.
TrustBridge is building infrastructure, not another marketplace, for safer peer to peer and social commerce transactions.
Buyer entry
Mobile web
Buyers fund from a shared escrow link in their mobile browser.
Seller requirement
Trust Passport
Full verification before creating escrow links.
Core fee range
1% to 2.5%
Escrow transaction fee model for protected commerce.
Market problem
Social commerce is growing faster than the trust infrastructure supporting it. Buyers fear scams and items not delivered. Sellers fear fake payments and disputes without evidence. Existing platforms capture demand, but chat based trade still lacks portable verification and protected settlement.
TrustBridge solution
A trust and escrow platform where verified sellers create shareable protected transactions, buyers can fund deals from mobile web links, and disputes follow a structured review path.
Why now
Mobile first commerce, social selling, and informal trade are already dominant in Nigeria and across Africa. The opportunity is to fit into existing behavior rather than fight it by adding trust where transactions already begin.
Revenue model
Escrow transaction fees typically range from 1% to 2.5%, configurable by merchant volume, transaction size, and partner platform. Longer term, platform APIs, verification tools, and reputation infrastructure create additional partnership opportunities.
Launch focus
Trust Passport, seller escrow creation, secure links, buyer mobile web funding, buyer verification, payment verification, and dispute review.
Expansion vision
Mobile app depth, admin operations, stronger payment provider integrations, trust scoring, seller reputation, platform APIs, marketplace integrations, seller tiers, and embedded trust infrastructure for third parties.
