Help & Resolution Guides
How the 4-Digit Dual OTP Handover Works
When meeting a neighbor for item handover, both parties must inspect the gear's functionality and capture condition photos. The borrower provides a unique 4-digit verification code to the lender to initiate the active rental. When returning, the lender confirms receipt with a return code to close the booking cleanly.
How to Raise a Booking Dispute or Claim Damage
If an item is damaged or not returned as agreed, open the booking details screen and tap "Raise Dispute" within 24 hours of scheduled return. Upload clear photos of the issue. Our arbitration team will review the pre-handover photo records and guide both parties to a fair resolution.
