Secure payments, professional shipping, and prompt payouts

Guaranteed Buyer Commitment

  • When a buyer makes a purchase request, you have 48 hours to accept. Once accepted, the buyer’s funds stay in escrow until they approve the bike, ensuring a genuine, committed buyer.

Professional Packaging Provided

  • Bikeflip supplies specialized shipping materials, including the Bikeflip Shipping Box® and detailed instructions, to ensure the bike is securely packed and arrives safely at its destination.

Secure Pickup & Insured Delivery

  • Our logistics partner will collect the bike from you on the pickup date you selected. The shipment is insured and tracked until it reaches the buyer.

Prompt Release of Funds

  • Once the buyer confirms the bike’s condition and approves the purchase, the funds are immediately released to your account. If the buyer reports any issues, Bikeflip will step in to assist both parties and ensure a fair resolution.

Built-in Process

  • Bikeflip offers an integrated system for managing every aspect of your sale, from receiving offers and accepting buying requests to scheduling pick-up dates and tracking delivery—all directly through the website or app.

Note: the entire process takes place exclusively within the Bikeflip website or app.


In summary, Bikeflip Secure Payment takes the guesswork out of buying and selling bikes online. By safeguarding funds, organizing insured shipments, offering return support, and ensuring transparent communication, Bikeflip delivers a smooth, trustworthy experience for all.
