Why Garabaly

A Marketplace Built on Trust

We're solving the biggest challenges in West Africa's livestock trade — from fraud and long-distance uncertainty to lack of health verification.

Escrow Protection

Your money is held securely until you confirm receipt with a unique 6-character confirmation code. Automatic refunds if the seller doesn't confirm within 24 hours. World-class security with encrypted transactions.

Real-Time Chat & Negotiation

WhatsApp-level messaging built in — text, voice messages, photos, and video. Negotiate prices directly, share listing details in-chat, and see read receipts. Price is a conversation, not a label.

Multi-Currency & Diaspora

Pay in your local currency from anywhere — EUR, USD, GBP, XOF, and 50+ African currencies. Diaspora buyers can purchase from Paris, New York, or London and have livestock delivered to family back home.

Real-Time Order Tracking

Track your order through every stage — from confirmation to preparation, delivery, and receipt. Live status updates via push notifications and in-app alerts. Always know where your livestock is.

Voice Descriptions & Reviews

Sellers record voice descriptions in Bambara, Fulfulde, French, or any local language. Buyers leave voice reviews. Communication without language barriers — the way it's always been done.

Digital Wallet & Mobile Money

A full-featured wallet with secure PIN protection, transaction history, and instant withdrawals. Pay and get paid via Orange Money, Wave, MTN MoMo, Moov Money, or bank transfer.

Service Provider Network

Book verified butchers, delivery drivers, and veterinarians directly in the app. Each service provider has ratings, reviews, and guaranteed payment through the same escrow system.

Multilingual App

Full interface in French, English, and Arabic (with right-to-left support). Specialized livestock vocabulary and locale-aware formatting. Bambara, Wolof, and Pulaar coming soon.

Culture-First Design

We Digitized the
Negotiation, Not Replaced It

In West Africa, every transaction is a relationship. You greet. You ask about the family. You inspect. You offer. They counter. You agree. That's not friction — that's culture.

Chat with Sellers Directly

Have real conversations. Ask about the animal, the family, the conditions. Build trust before you buy.

Request More Photos & Videos

Not convinced? Ask the seller for additional angles, videos, or a voice description in your language.

Negotiate the Price

Price is a conversation, not a label. Make your offer, counter, and reach consensus — then transact with escrow protection.

Simple & Secure

Escrow Protection
for Every Transaction

In traditional livestock trading, sending money to a stranger is a leap of faith. Garabaly eliminates that risk with a five-stage escrow lifecycle, encrypted transactions, and fraud detection.

Confirmation Code System

Every delivery is verified with a unique 6-character code. Only the buyer can release funds — ensuring you pay only for what you receive.

24-Hour Countdown Protection

Sellers must confirm orders within 24 hours, or the transaction is automatically cancelled and your funds are returned instantly.

Fraud Detection & Security

Velocity limits, device fingerprinting, and real-time monitoring protect every transaction. Your wallet is secured with a private PIN and SMS verification.

Full Transparency

Track every transaction stage in real time — from escrow hold to fund release. Double-entry bookkeeping with SHA-256 checksums ensures your records are always accurate.
