Trust the trade,
not the stranger.
With Bonfium, the seller gets paid only after the parcel arrives and checks out. Sell, buy, or swap on any platform – without the scams.
Money stops. A parcel moves. Money continues.
Built for the trade, not the platform - Bonfium sits between two people who don't know each other yet, on whatever platform they already met on.
Item not as described? Either side can open a dispute before the money releases.
What moves
Cards, sneakers, cameras, bikes – whatever two people already trust each other enough to trade, minus the part where they have to trust each other.

Anything else
Any price
What it costs
Never more than the item is worth — for anything priced under €1.50, the fee is capped at the item's own price.
Can I use this on Vinted or Facebook Marketplace?
Yes - Bonfium runs alongside any platform. You agree the trade wherever you already met, then move the payment through a Bonfium link.
Who pays the fee?
Whoever you agree on - split evenly, paid by the buyer, or absorbed by the seller. The calculator above shows the real number before either side commits.
What happens if the item never arrives?
The buyer is refunded in full. The money never left Bonfium in the first place, so there is nothing to claw back.
Is there a maximum trade size?
No maximum, and no cliff where a large trade suddenly costs the same as a small one - the fee keeps falling smoothly as the trade grows.
What if the seller just never ships?
Nothing is released. If no tracking number appears within the agreed window, the trade cancels itself and the buyer is refunded in full. The seller cannot reach the money at any point before delivery is confirmed.
What counts as evidence in a dispute?
Courier records - including the weight logged at the depot - plus photos and an unboxing video if you filmed one. Both sides see the same evidence file. There are no secret submissions.
What if the item isn't what was described?
That's exactly what the inspection window is for. Open a dispute before it ends and explain what's wrong - photos and an unboxing video make the strongest case. A reviewer compares that against the original listing and the seller's response, and can release the money, refund it, or split it if both sides were partly right.
How long does a trade actually take?
As long as shipping takes, plus the inspection window - there's no extra waiting built in. Payment is confirmed instantly, and the money moves to the seller the moment the buyer approves or the inspection window closes without a dispute.
Can either side cancel?
Before the seller ships, yes - either side can cancel and the buyer is refunded in full. Once tracking shows the parcel moving, cancelling isn't possible; that's the point where a dispute, not a cancellation, is the right tool if something's actually wrong.
What if the buyer just changes their mind?
A genuine change of mind isn't a dispute - the item matching its description is what's protected, not a guaranteed right to return it. Sellers can choose to offer returns themselves, but Bonfium doesn't force one on a seller who accurately described what they sold.
Does this work between different countries?
Yes - most trades on Bonfium already are. Everything is priced and paid in euros, and the courier options shown at setup are whichever of the major carriers actually deliver on that route.
You already do this job. Get paid for it.
Pin your link in a server or group you already run. Anyone who joins through it trades protected, and you take a cut of Bonfium's fee - never a cut of their money.
Your share is capped at €25.00 on any single trade.
