What needs attention
- Payment — Balance triggers on emailed copies not verified originals, so buyer could pay before goods are properly documented.
- Quality — Buyer has no independent inspection right, so disputed quality cannot be effectively claimed against seller.
- Shipment — No notice mechanism stated, so buyer cannot plan vessel or L/C timing with certainty.

How it works
One conversation, one clear read.
No app to install, no account to create, no portal to learn. Trade Assurance runs entirely inside the WhatsApp conversation you are already having about the trade.

Stays currentWhat comes back
A snapshot, a read, and the open questions.
01
Commercial terms
Commodity, quantity and tolerance, price basis, Incoterm, shipment window and the payment mechanism, set out plainly.
02
Payment and documents
What triggers payment, which documents are required for it, and where the document set and the payment terms do not line up.
03
Risk and responsibilities
Who carries cost, risk and obligation at each step, and the clauses that decide what happens when something goes wrong.
What Trade Assurance is not
It reads your contract. It does not trade, finance or advise.
Trade Assurance tells you what the document says, what it implies and what it leaves open. It does not make commercial decisions for you, it does not provide credit or funding, and it is not legal or financial advice. The trade stays yours.
