Identity

Every actor has a verifiable Trust ID

Protection

Funds held until delivery is confirmed

Reputation

Earned from real, verified outcomes

Evidence

Tamper-evident record of every step

The core primitive

The Verified Commerce Graph

Maeyen is not a marketplace and not a payment processor — it is the infrastructure beneath them. Every meaningful action is recorded as an append-only verified event. Trust, reputation, and fraud signals are all reproducible from that history.

Account created
Trust ID issued
Business verified
Protected transaction
Payment held
Evidence uploaded
Delivery confirmed
Reputation updated

Events are immutable. History is never overwritten — only appended. Anything built on Maeyen, from a merchant dashboard to a full marketplace, strengthens the same graph.

Infrastructure modules

Everything commerce needs to be trusted

Composable modules that share one identity layer and one event graph — no duplicated trust logic, no silos.

Trust ID

A portable, verifiable identity for every buyer, seller, and business — the root of every trust decision.

Protected Transactions

Funds are held and only released when delivery is confirmed, with a clear, server-validated lifecycle.

Reputation Engine

Scores earned from verified outcomes — not reviews that can be bought or faked.

Evidence Engine

Photos, receipts, and delivery proof captured as tamper-evident evidence on every transaction.

Dispute Resolution

Structured disputes resolved against real evidence, with every decision recorded and auditable.

Developer APIs

Trust, Reputation, Verification, and Merchant APIs to build verified commerce into any product.

How it works

From first sale to lasting trust

  1. 01

    Establish identity

    Create an account and get a Trust ID. Businesses verify once and carry that trust everywhere.

  2. 02

    Transact under protection

    Open a protected transaction. The buyer pays into escrow — funds are held, never assumed released.

  3. 03

    Prove the outcome

    Sellers upload evidence and delivery proof. The buyer confirms. Disputes, if any, are resolved on evidence.

  4. 04

    Build reputation

    Each verified outcome updates reputation and strengthens the commerce graph for everyone.

For builders

Frequently asked

What is Maeyen?

What is Maeyen?
Maeyen is the trust infrastructure for African commerce. It turns every important commerce action — identity, payment, delivery, and dispute — into a verified, immutable event, building a Verified Commerce Graph that protects buyers and rewards honest sellers.
Is Maeyen a marketplace or a payment processor?
No. Maeyen is infrastructure, not a marketplace, payment processor, or escrow company. Marketplaces, protected payments, and escrow are products built on top of Maeyen — the platform beneath them is the Verified Commerce Graph.
What is a Maeyen Trust ID?
A Trust ID is a portable, verifiable identity for every buyer, seller, and business on Maeyen. It is the root of every trust decision and carries a seller's verified standing and reputation across every commerce action.
How do Maeyen protected transactions work?
When a buyer pays, funds are held rather than assumed released. The seller uploads evidence and delivery proof, the buyer confirms delivery, and only then are funds released. Every state change is validated server-side and recorded as a verified commerce event.
Where does Maeyen operate?
Maeyen serves African commerce, starting in Nigeria. It is operated by Maeyen Technologies Nigeria Ltd, a subsidiary of Tarvico Inc.
How does Maeyen build trust and reputation?
Reputation is earned from real, verified outcomes rather than reviews that can be bought or faked. Because every action is an immutable event, trust, reputation, and fraud signals are all reproducible from the commerce history.
