A practical guide

How to use the pre-payment purchase checklist

Supply the evidence

Create a baseline from your own completed checks and supply the current checkout observations. Record changes in seller details, total cost, recipient or terms.

Read the result

See which changes introduce new warning signs, which details remain consistent and what needs clarification before payment.

Check the limits

This is an evidence comparison, not automatic purchase protection or insurance. The tool does not cancel orders, block payments or guarantee that proceeding is safe.

Questions about this tool

What if the checkout details change after I check the website?

Pause and compare the recipient, domain, total and terms with your earlier evidence. Recheck an unexplained change through an independent source instead of relying on the previous result.

How should I interpret missing evidence?

Missing evidence means the assessment has less support or coverage. It does not establish safety or wrongdoing. Review the sources and dates, and independently verify the gaps that matter to your decision.
