Questions & answers.
Can I use Rathagaya without a badge?
Yes. Buying, selling and posting ads don't need a badge. Badges are optional.
What's the difference between phone confirmation and seller verification?
Phone confirmation only shows that the number received a one-time code. Seller verification is a review of your identity by our team.
Does paying guarantee approval?
No. An application payment pays for the review. A badge is only given if the application is approved.
What happens if my verification is rejected?
We tell you why by notification and email, and a paid application fee is refunded in full. You can apply again later.
Does a private seller need a business certificate?
No. Private sellers need an ID and proof of address, or a phone call from our team. Business documents are for dealers.
Who should apply as a dealer?
Anyone who regularly buys and sells vehicles for profit, such as a showroom or yard, even without a registered business.
Can a Free Dealer receive Verified Dealer?
Yes. Verification doesn't depend on a paid plan.
Is Dealer Pro required for verification?
No. It's the other way round: buying Dealer Pro needs a current Verified Dealer badge.
Can private sellers buy Dealer Pro?
No. Dealer Pro is for approved dealers.
What happens when verification or Pro membership expires?
Each ends separately. The verification badge disappears when it expires. The Pro label and benefits end with the paid month; listings above the Free allowance are paused after a short grace period, never deleted.
Does buying advertising make me Pro?
No. Boost Ads and Promote+ are separate and never grant verification or Pro membership.
