Tap stars. A note is optional unless you give 1 or 2 stars — then please say why.
How the handshake works
Step 1
Both people are verified
A Verified Neighbor has confirmed their name and phone. Look for the badge before you talk money.
Step 2
Money sits in Paddle Hold
We keep the payment until you both say the handshake is done. Card, Google Pay, or Shop. No gift cards. No wires.
Step 3
Meet at a Safe Spot
Library lobby, precinct lot, community center — lit, public, and often staffed.
Step 4
Tap Handshake
Inspect the item, then both tap. Money releases. No-shows lose standing and coins.
How a Trade works
Step 1
Both people are verified
A Trade only starts when both neighbors have a Verified badge.
Step 2
Values are compared
We show what similar things sell for. If one item is worth more, the difference goes into Paddle Hold — never cash in a parking lot.
Step 3
Even-up sits in Paddle Hold
If the swap is uneven, we hold the difference until you both tap. If it is even, nothing extra moves.
Step 4
Meet at a Safe Spot
Bring both items. Look them over in public. Do not swap in a driveway at night.
Step 5
Tap We swapped
If both items match, you both tap. The even-up releases. No-shows lose standing, same as a handshake.
