Trading Safety Guide

Last updated: 2026-05-18

BagLog trades happen in the real world. A few simple habits make them much safer.

Before you meet

  • Chat only inside the App. You never need to share your phone number, email, or address.
  • Read the other person's profile and previous activity. New accounts deserve more caution.
  • Agree on the item, condition, and any value clearly in writing inside the chat.

Choosing a meeting spot

  • Public. Cafés, train stations, shopping centres — places with people and cameras.
  • Daytime. Avoid late evenings and isolated areas.
  • Never your home. Don't share your address. Don't go to a stranger's home.
  • Tell a friend where you are going and when you expect to be back. Share your live location with them if you can.

During the meeting

  • Inspect the item before any value changes hands.
  • Trust your gut. If something feels off, walk away. You owe nobody a trade.
  • If you feel threatened, leave and contact local emergency services.

After the meeting

  • If the trade went badly or felt unsafe, use the Report user option in chat and Block the person.
  • For criminal behaviour, contact your local police. We will cooperate with lawful requests.

BagLog is a platform — we are not present at meetings and cannot guarantee anyone's behaviour. You are responsible for your own safety.

BagLog is not an emergency or law-enforcement service. If you are in immediate danger, contact your local emergency services.
