Terms & Conditions

These Terms govern your use of KopaSquare. By creating an account or using the app, you agree to them. If you don't agree, please don't use KopaSquare.

1. Who can use KopaSquare

KopaSquare is built for Nigerian NYSC corps members, verified through Google sign-in during their service year. Vendors — businesses selling to corps members — may also join, either by signing up directly or through an invite link generated by a KopaSquare admin. Corps members become alumni automatically once their passing-out date has passed.

2. Accounts

You're responsible for the activity on your account. Information you provide (state, LGA, state code, passing-out date, or — for invited non-corper members — name, home address, and NIN/Voter's Card) must be accurate.

3. Market — buying and selling

KopaSquare is a marketplace connecting buyers and sellers directly — KopaSquare is not a party to any sale and does not own or inspect items listed. Only verified sellers can post listings. When you pay for an item through KopaSquare:

• Your payment is processed securely through Paystack.
• Funds are held by KopaSquare and are not released to the seller until you confirm you've received the item (or an admin resolves the order manually).
• A buyer protection fee (currently a flat ₦100 plus 2% of the item price) is added at checkout, shown as "Buyer protection" before you pay — see Section 5 for details.
• You choose pickup at the seller's stated location, or delivery to your own address for a fee the seller sets — that fee goes entirely to the seller.
• Confirming receipt when you haven't actually received the item, or in working condition as described, is a violation of these Terms.

4. Skills

Skills listings connect you with a corper offering a service directly. Payment and delivery of the service are arranged between you and them — KopaSquare does not process payment for Skills bookings.

5. Fees

Posting a Market listing currently has no fee. This is temporary while KopaSquare grows, and may change in the future with reasonable notice.

Completed sales currently carry one fee:

• Buyers pay a flat ₦100 plus 2% of the item price, shown at checkout as "Buyer protection" — this is added on top of the item price and any delivery fee, and covers KopaSquare holding your payment securely until you confirm receipt. It is not charged on pay-on-delivery orders, which KopaSquare does not hold money for.
• Sellers pay no commission at present. This is a temporary waiver while KopaSquare grows and may be reintroduced with reasonable notice. Delivery fees are never commissioned — they go entirely to the seller.

These figures may change with reasonable notice, but never retroactively for orders already paid for.

6. Prohibited conduct

• Listing stolen, counterfeit, illegal, or unsafe items.
• Misrepresenting who you are, an item's condition, or a skill's quality.
• Attempting to pay or get paid outside the app to avoid buyer protection.
• Harassing, defrauding, or discriminating against other users.

Violating these can result in listing removal, loss of verified status, or account suspension.

7. Disputes and refunds

If an order goes wrong, contact us. Refunds are issued back to the original payment method at KopaSquare's discretion when a genuine issue is confirmed.

8. No warranty

KopaSquare is provided "as is." We don't guarantee the accuracy of listings, the conduct of other users, or uninterrupted availability of the app.

9. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, KopaSquare isn't liable for indirect losses arising from your use of the app or transactions between users.

10. Changes

We may update these Terms as KopaSquare grows. Continued use after a change means you accept the update.

11. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
