Physical product holds: Vendor earnings from physical product sales are held for 7 days after order confirmation to allow for delivery verification and dispute resolution. Digital product earnings are available immediately. Laifido Store administrators may place additional holds on specific orders at their discretion.
Commissions on cancelled, refunded, or fraudulent orders will be reversed. Payouts already processed for fraudulent activity are subject to recovery.
Payments & Refunds
All payments are processed via Paystack, a PCI-DSS compliant payment processor. Laifido Store does not store card details on its servers.
Refund eligibility for product purchases is determined by the individual vendor's refund policy. Laifido Store is not liable for refund disputes between vendors and customers. Vendor registration fees (β¦5,000) are non-refundable once an account has been activated.
