Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Afrisovera Global Holdings, our services, and how we protect your interests.
Vision & Mission
What is Afrisovera?
+
Afrisovera Global Holdings Limited is a UK-registered company and a movement for the African diaspora and friends to invest back home with confidence. We build across four pillars — Cities & Real Estate, Agriculture, Manufacturing and the Foundation — and run the services that make it safe to take part: a verified Marketplace, Safehold escrow (the guardian of your money) and Avena for events. We are Africans and friends of Africa, building the Africa our parents dreamed of — together.
How do you build cities so fast?
+
Instead of one family building a single house over a working lifetime, Afrisovera pools diaspora finance so a whole, already-planned city can be built at once to one master plan. With modern modular construction, that turns what used to take decades into a few years. Each city is designed with reliable solar power, water and fibre, schools and clinics within a short walk, and quiet, unobtrusive security — calm, green neighbourhoods families are glad to call home. See the full plan on our roadmap.
How do payments work? Is my money safe?
+
You pay through our payment partners in pounds sterling. For anything that involves a delivery — a marketplace order, a Safehold agreement, an event ticket, an investment into a development — the money is held in escrow and only released to the other side once the agreed delivery is confirmed. If something goes wrong, you can raise a dispute, the evidence is reviewed, and held funds go to whoever the decision favours. Afrisovera Global Holdings Limited is a UK-registered company, so there is a real, accountable entity behind every transaction.
Is this only for Africans?
+
No. While led by the African Diaspora, Afrisovera welcomes everyone who wants a high standard of living free from corruption. Whether you are a son of the soil or a friend of Africa seeking a second home, you are welcome to join.
What are the four pillars?
+
Afrisovera builds across four pillars: Cities & Real Estate (secure land and planned cities — the flagship), Agriculture (model farming and food security), Manufacturing (indigenous production and jobs), and the Foundation (community projects and Talent Kids). Read more in our manifesto and roadmap.
How do I get involved or take part?
+
Create a free account, then explore the pillar that interests you and register your interest. Registering interest is exactly that — an expression of interest only. No money is taken at that stage and it is not an investment offer. When a project is ready and the structure is in place, we set out the specifics before anyone commits, and any funds tied to a deal are held in Safehold escrow. See the roadmap for how it works.
Marketplace
What is Afrisovera Buyer Protection?
+
Afrisovera Buyer Protection is our guarantee that every purchase on the Marketplace is secure. Similar to Amazon's A-to-Z Guarantee:
- Your payment is held securely until you confirm delivery
- You have 30 days to return any item for a full refund
- If there's a dispute, our team mediates to ensure fair resolution
- Funds are only released to sellers after you're satisfied
How does the return policy work?
+
Our 30-Day Return Policy protects both buyers and sellers:
- For Buyers: Request a return within 30 days of purchase. Ship the item back to the seller.
- For Sellers: Receive the returned item and perform a Quality Assurance (QA) inspection to verify the item's condition.
- Refund: Once the seller confirms the item has returned in original condition, the refund is processed automatically.
How do I become a seller?
+
To sell on the Marketplace:
- Create an account (free)
- Click "Start Selling" on the marketplace page
- Submit your verification documents (Government ID and business document)
- Wait for approval (typically 24-48 hours)
- Once approved, start listing your products!
How do I track my order?
+
Once a seller ships your order, you'll receive tracking information via email and in your Orders dashboard. We support live tracking for major couriers including DHL, FedEx, Royal Mail, UPS, and more. Simply click the tracking link to see real-time updates on your shipment's location.
Afrisovera Safehold
What is Afrisovera Safehold?
+
Afrisovera Safehold is our escrow service — the guardian of your money.

Whether you are hiring a freelancer, commissioning a project, or setting up a business agreement, Safehold provides:
- Secure fund holding until service is delivered
- Verified identity of all parties
- Dispute resolution through our mediation team
- Full transaction history and documentation
How do I create a Safehold agreement?
+- Open Safehold
- Post your service request or browse available offers
- When you find a match, start a Safehold agreement
- Both parties agree to terms and the funds are held securely
- Once the service is delivered, release the funds or request mediation
Need a safe way to hold funds?
Safehold connects you with verified members and holds the money safely until the deal is done. Every agreement is protected.

Security & Economy
Is my investment safe?
+
Afrisovera Global Holdings Limited is a UK-registered company (England & Wales). Money you put toward a development or hold on the platform is handled through regulated payment partners, and funds tied to a deal sit in escrow until the agreed milestones are met — they are not handed over up front. You deal with a real, accountable entity, not an anonymous app. No investment is ever risk-free, and we set out the specifics of each project before you commit.
What is Shield?
+
Shield is our integrity-reporting channel. If you witness corruption, fraud, abuse of office or other wrongdoing — within Afrisovera or anywhere — you can report it confidentially, with an anonymous option that strips your identity before the report reaches our team. We review reports and act on them.
How is Afrisovera run and kept secure?
+
Afrisovera is run by Afrisovera Global Holdings Limited, a UK-registered company — not an anonymous app. The platform runs on secure, professionally hosted infrastructure; identities are verified before money changes hands; and funds tied to a deal sit in escrow until the agreed milestones are met. We do not run any cryptocurrency — your money is handled through regulated payment partners in pounds sterling.
