2. Purpose of the service

tiqopay is a trusted third-party (escrow) service that secures online transactions between Buyers and Sellers in Morocco.

4. How escrow works

The Seller creates a payment link from their dashboard specifying the description, amount, and delivery deadline. The Buyer accesses the link and makes the payment.

Funds paid by the Buyer are held in a secure escrow account, separate from tiqopay's own accounts. Funds do not bear interest for the Buyer or Seller.

Funds are released to the Seller when the Buyer confirms receipt, or automatically upon expiration of the confirmation period (default 7 days after delivery declaration) in the absence of a dispute.

In case of a dispute, the Buyer may open a claim before the confirmation deadline expires. Funds remain frozen until the dispute is resolved. tiqopay acts as mediator. tiqopay's decision is binding for both parties.

In case of mutual cancellation, expiration without delivery, or dispute resolution in favor of the Buyer, funds are refunded. Refund processing typically takes 5 to 10 business days.
