How we keep journeys safer

  1. 1

    Verify identity

    Travelers verify their identity and share trip details.

  2. 2

    Confirm trip and item details

    Review item descriptions, photos, and plans together.

  3. 3

    Meet and inspect together

    Exchange items in person and check everything together.

  4. 4

    Track and review after delivery

    Confirm completion and leave a review to help future travelers.

Verification & trust

Check the current person, trip, and conversation.

Review what is actually verified

Use the verification level shown on the traveler or sender's current profile. Verification helps establish identity, but it is not a guarantee—review the route, dates, capacity, item declaration, and handoff plan too.

Keep coordination inside SpareKilo

Use SpareKilo messages for route, package, payment, and handoff details. Do not continue if a person pressures you to hide an item, change the declaration, or move payment outside the agreed flow.

Approved items

Declare every item before the traveler accepts it.

Airline, customs, and destination-country rules always apply. The traveler may inspect and decline any package that differs from its declaration.

Generally allowed

  • Clothing and shoesClean personal clothing, textiles, and footwear.
  • DocumentsDeclared personal, school, or business documents that are legal to carry.
  • Gifts and personal effectsDeclared, non-restricted gifts and household items.
  • Sealed approved goodsCommercially sealed goods allowed by the airline and customs authorities.

Not allowed

  • Weapons and explosivesFirearms, ammunition, fireworks, and weapon components.
  • Illegal or controlled substancesDrugs, unlicensed medication, and restricted chemicals.
  • Dangerous materialsFlammables, corrosives, pressurized containers, and restricted batteries.
  • Undeclared cash or valuablesCash, concealed valuables, and high-value items without a truthful declaration.

Handoff & payment

Inspect first, confirm custody, then complete delivery.

At pickup

Meet in the agreed public place, confirm identities and shipment reference, inspect the package, and compare its contents, weight, photos, and condition with the declaration before accepting custody.

During delivery

Keep status updates and changes in SpareKilo. At the destination, the recipient should inspect the shipment and use the booking's confirmation step before the delivery is marked complete.

Payment protection

Use only the payment instructions attached to the booking. Do not pay or request payment through an unrelated account, link, or cash arrangement. Raise a problem before confirming completion.

Problems & disputes

Stop the handoff when something does not match.

Do not accept custody or confirm delivery while a material difference is unresolved.

1

Keep the record

Preserve relevant messages, photos, timestamps, shipment details, and payment references.

2

Message the other party

Use the shipment conversation when a coordination issue can still be resolved safely.

3

Ask for support

Email support for guidance. Sending an email does not automatically create a tracked case.
