Every carrier is ID-verified before they can book

Someone is already flying your parcel's route.

Waybl connects people sending packages with travellers who have luggage space to spare. Senders pay a fraction of courier rates. Travellers earn from space they were flying with anyway. Every payment sits in escrow until the handover is confirmed.

HOW IT WORKS

Three steps, whichever side you're on.

01

Post what you have

A package to send, or a trip with spare kilos. Either takes four steps: the details, verification, a summary you can edit, and checkout.

02

Get matched, then confirm

We surface people going your way. Nobody is locked in until both sides confirm the match and the money moves into escrow.

03

Hand over with a code

A four-digit pickup code proves the handover happened. Escrow releases when the receiver confirms delivery.

TWO SIDES, ONE COMMUNITY

The same trip solves two problems.

If you're sending

Post the package, browse travellers already booked on your route, and pick one. You pay per kilogram at a price the traveller set, not a courier's tariff.

  • Declare the item and its value up front
  • Track the booking through seven stages
  • Full refund if no carrier is matched

If you're travelling

List your route, your spare kilos, and your price. Senders come to you. You carry what you agreed to and get paid when it lands.

  • You set the price per kilogram
  • See every item declared before you accept
  • Commitment fee refunded on delivery

ESCROW

Nobody holds anybody's money.

When a booking is confirmed, the sender's payment moves into escrow. The carrier can see it is funded. Neither side can touch it. It releases to the carrier only when delivery is confirmed, and returns to the sender if the match falls through.

Funded on confirmation

Both sides confirm, then the money moves in.

Locked in transit

A pickup code marks the handover. Funds stay put.

Released on delivery

Receiver confirms, carrier gets paid, or 72h passes and it settles automatically.

IDENTITY

You're handing your parcel to a real, named person.

Every account submits a government ID. A person on our team compares the document with the profile photo, checks it hasn't been tampered with, and either approves it or sends back a reason. Until that clears, nobody can book or carry.

"I fly Lagos–London every six weeks with half an empty case. Two trips paid for my excess baggage the whole year."

SAFETY

Carriers know exactly what they're carrying.

Senders declare the item, its value and a photo before a match is made. Carriers see all of it and can decline. Anything on the prohibited list gets the account removed, no second chance.

Questions people ask first

Yes, when it's declared. Carrying a declared, permitted item for someone else is legal on the routes we operate. Both sides agree to the declaration, and anything on the prohibited list is off the platform entirely.

Your next trip could pay for itself.

Sign up free, get verified once, and use Waybl in either direction from then on.
