On the marketplace, the buyer pays first. AirSwap holds the payment until the seller’s delivery is confirmed.

08Questions

Before you start

All questions and support
How does AirSwap work?

You list airtime or data to sell, a buyer accepts, you transfer it and the escrowed money is released to your wallet.

Is my money safe?

Yes. Buyer money is locked in escrow and only released once the airtime is confirmed received.

How fast are payouts?

Most trades complete in under a minute once both sides confirm.
