SkillMart is a marketplace in Nigeria for products, professionals and artisans. Payments are held in escrow until you confirm that your order or job is done.
Every payment on SkillMart goes into escrow first. The seller or provider is paid only after you confirm.
You pay
At checkout, or when you fund a job, your payment goes into escrow. It does not go to the seller or provider yet.
The money is held
It stays in escrow while the seller ships through a logistics partner, or the provider does the job.
You confirm
Check the delivery or approve the work. Only then is the payment released.
They are paid
The seller or provider receives the money.
Something not right?
Open a dispute instead of confirming. The money stays held while SkillMart reviews the evidence and confirms the outcome.
Verified accounts
Sellers and providers complete profile and identity steps when they join. A Verified badge means that check was done. It is not a promise of how well someone works, so read the reviews.
Pay your way
Pay by card (Visa, Mastercard or Verve), bank transfer or USSD.
