Fulani herder with Zebu cattle at golden hour in the West African Sahel

The livestock trade hasn't changed in 100 years.
We're changing it.

Your livestock. Your money. Your trust.

In Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso, livestock produces close to $4 billion a year. Yet animals are still sold in cash, at a distance and on blind trust. Garabaly is the trust layer this trade never had.

Why Garabaly

Trust Isn't Built With a Checkout Button

Every transaction in West Africa is a relationship. You greet. You ask about the family. You inspect. You offer. They counter. You agree. That's not friction — that's culture. We digitized the negotiation. We didn't replace it.

Culture-First Design

We Digitized the Negotiation.
We Didn't Replace It.

At the market, a deal starts with a greeting, not a price tag. Garabaly keeps it that way: you talk, you inspect, you agree — all from your phone.

Chat with Sellers Directly

Have real conversations. Ask about the animal, the family, the conditions. Build trust before you buy.

Request More Photos & Videos

Not convinced? Ask the seller for additional angles, videos, or a voice description in your language.

Negotiate the Price

Price is a conversation, not a label. Make an offer, hear the counter, shake on a price — then pay with escrow protection.

Negotiation, by Voice

Negotiate Freely.
We Secure the Payment.

Talk by voice or in writing, in your own language. Garabaly never sets the price — you reach an agreement, the seller adjusts to the amount you settled on, and you approve it before any money moves into escrow.

Escrow Protection
for Every Payment Made in the App

In traditional livestock trading, sending money to a stranger is a leap of faith. Garabaly takes that risk off the table for every payment made in the app, with escrow split per party, encryption and fraud checks. One escrow hold, whether the order stands alone or is bundled: nothing is paid out until you enter your code. Then the providers are paid at once, and the seller's share enters a 24-hour buyer-protection window.

Have questions about how escrow works? → See our FAQ

Confirmation Code System

One 6-character code per order — even for bundles with several parties. It is encrypted and protected against repeated guessing. For escrow orders, the code stays hidden from the seller and providers until you confirm receipt. One code completes the order and all its service bookings at once.

24-Hour Buyer Protection Window

Nothing is released until you enter your code. The moment you do, the service providers (butcher, vet, delivery) are paid and the seller's payment enters a 24-hour window — during which you can open a dispute if something is wrong. The 24-hour window applies only to the seller's share.

Fraud Detection & Security

Spending limits, device checks and real-time monitoring watch over every payment in the app. Your wallet is secured with a private PIN and SMS verification.

Full Transparency

Buyer, seller and providers all see where the escrow stands, with live status updates. A countdown shows the time left in the 24-hour dispute window. Cash and escrow orders are clearly labeled. Every franc paid through the app is recorded and accounted for.

The average cost of sending money to Sub-Saharan Africa — the most expensive region in the world (World Bank, Remittance Prices Worldwide, Q3 2025). On Garabaly, your money goes to the animal you chose, not into a transfer you cannot follow: no Garabaly fee for buyers, any card or conversion fee shown before you confirm, and escrow protecting in-app payments until you enter your code.

01

You pay by card

From any country. Your own currency is converted automatically.

02

The funds are protected

Escrow protects the money until you enter your code. The seller receives nothing before.

03

Delivery confirmed

Your family receives the animal. You enter your code — on a call with them, if you like. Providers are paid at once, and the seller's share follows after the 24-hour protection window.

Optional Services

The Animal First.
The Services You Choose.

Garabaly connects buyers and sellers — and, if you want them, the services around the sale. Buy a cow from a seller in Bamako. Add a vet to inspect it, a butcher to prepare the meat, a delivery driver to bring it to your family: independent, verified providers that you choose. One order. One code. Nothing is paid before you enter it. Then the providers are paid at once, and the seller's share is held 24 more hours in case you need to open a dispute. Drag the steps into the order you want. Every payment made in the app is protected in escrow.

Verified Delivery Drivers

Book an independent, verified driver directly in the app. Track delivery in real time with live status updates.

Professional Butchers

Add butchering as a service to your order. The butcher steps in only once the animal's sale is complete.
