If the order was for a single item, Retailers could mark it as “Order Unavailable”. The customer will be notified of the situation, the pending transaction will be cancelled, and no charges will be applied.
For multi-item orders, it’s possible to Adjust the order contents by removing unavailable products or quantities. Customers are notified when an order is Adjusted and charged the modified price.

Customers are shown products closest to the local area they’re interested in, and they’ll gradually see products from Retailers farther away from that point. Customers can change their local area of interest anytime.
We will market the Makeke marketplace and Retailers with products for sale through many channels, including local and small business-oriented groups, and on social media platforms, including Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, TikTok and LinkedIn. Retailers' marketing will be geographically targeted in local districts, towns, boroughs, counties, and regions.
