Clearer participant details. Documented handovers. A clearer record.
From a $5,000 motorbike to a $200,000 boat, TrustEcho is developing a documented way to help buyers and sellers manage significant payments, without cash, without uncleared transfers, and without relying on someone's word alone.
Anything with wheels, a hull or a rego sticker.
- Cars, private and dealer-assisted
- Motorcycles
- Boats and jet skis
- Caravans and campers
- Trucks and heavy vehicles
- Plant and machinery
Private vehicle sales often involve people who have never dealt with each other before.
- A clearer framework could help buyers avoid carrying cash to a stranger's house.
- A documented process could reduce reliance on transfers that 'haven't cleared yet'.
- Both sides would work from the same recorded handover expectations.
- Intended to work for dealer-assisted sales too.
How the TrustEcho framework could support a private vehicle sale.
A conditional, structured approach designed to keep the buyer, the seller and the transaction record aligned from first contact to handover. Availability and transaction functionality will depend on the applicable early-access or pilot arrangement.
Record the agreed sale
The buyer and seller set out the agreed price, vehicle details and handover expectations.
Both parties review the same details
The seller reviews the recorded transaction details alongside the buyer before anything proceeds.
Establish the handover expectations
Delivery or in-person handover requirements, including paperwork and condition, are set out in advance.
Confirm the outcome
Both parties can refer back to the recorded transaction details once the handover has taken place.
