Terms of Service
Contractual lattice governing accounts, marketplace behaviour, orders, messaging rails, and enforcement leverage across Central Market Online.

Last updated · May 2026

Agreement mesh

Acceptance constitutes binding incorporation by reference
These Terms interoperate with Privacy, Disclaimer, Refund, and Cookie statements.

Accessing or continuing to use Central Market Online signals acceptance of this Agreement alongside our Privacy Policy, Disclaimer, Refund & dispute policy, and ancillary notices surfaced in-product.

Identity substrate

Eligibility, truthful registration, and credential stewardship
Synthetic identities or dormant sock accounts degrade liquidity — we sanction accordingly.
  • Furnish accurate Know-Your-Counterparty fields and refresh stale legal personas promptly.
  • Maintain exclusive control of passwords / magic-link destinations — session artifacts traversing shared kiosk browsers remain your operational hazard.
  • Circumvention formations (multi-account bans evasion, velocity laundering) invite accelerated termination & collateral payout freezes per investigations.

Commercial etiquette

Marketplace conduct expectations codified
Good-faith commerce compounds trust premiums platform-wide.
  • Prohibit counterfeit trafficking, deceptive scarcity signalling, harassment payloads inside chats, or coordinated off-platform fee avoidance absent disclosed exemptions.
  • Vendors shoulder SKU legality, duty disclosures where relevant, and fulfilment truthfulness.
  • Buyers leverage official negotiation rails — screenshot receipts contemporaneously when ambiguity threatens.

Commercial commitments

Orders & payment authorization semantics
Checkout manifests resemble digital bills of lading — mutations post-submit require bilateral consent.

Checkout artefacts memorialize SKU selections, fee stacks, and acquiescence to processor redirects (Paystackflows or documented manual rails). Authorization grants us & partners permission to capture stated totals contingent upon issuer approvals — chargeback choreography follows processor jurisprudence intersecting refund rails.

Conflict topology

Dispute resolution leverage & evidentiary doctrine
Admins synthesize ledger timelines — not psychic adjudication.

Enforcement actors may correlate chats, GPS breadcrumbs (where consented), payout milestones, and warehouse uploads to render provisional rulings. Parties retain external statutory escalations unaffected unless exclusive arbitration clauses emerge in future specialized programmes — absent today unless individually countersigned.

Safety escalations

Suspensions, shadow restrictions, and progressive discipline ladders
Severity scales with recurrence vectors & systemic harm potential.

Moderation automations interlace human review for edge scenarios — appeals routes activate where technically feasible without compromising fraud investigations. Persistent violations risk cross-role blacklist propagation across vendor + buyer identities correlated via device graphs & payment fingerprints subject to privacy safeguards.

Temporal mutations

Terms versioning & continuity mechanics
Material revisions strive for conspicuous surfacing — revisit quarterly.

Evolving regulatory climates or feature introductions necessitate refreshes. Continued engagement post-notice implies acquiescence absent jurisdictional prohibitions on passive acceptance constructs.
