Terms of Use
Last updated: 10 November 2026
These terms apply when you use Occrr Market in Telegram, through our bot @OccrrMarket_bot, or as a web app, whether you are buying or selling. By using Occrr Market you agree to them. If you don't agree, please don't use the service.
What Occrr Market is
Occrr Market is a place where people post ads for things they want to sell and talk to people who want to buy them. We are not the seller or the buyer, we do not own, check, store, ship or guarantee any item, and we never hold anyone's money. Every sale is a deal between the buyer and the seller.
Who can use Occrr Market
- You must be at least 18 years old.
- Each person may have only one account, verified with a real phone number or Google account.
- You must follow the law where you live, and where the buyer or seller lives.
- You must not use the service if we have removed you before.
Rules for sellers
- Sell only real things that you own or are allowed to sell, at the price you show. Use a real photo of the item.
- Describe the item honestly, including any faults.
- Never ask a buyer to pay in advance, to pay a “token”, “courier” or “delivery” amount before they see the item, to share an OTP or UPI PIN, or to scan a QR code to receive money.
- Do not post the same item many times, and mark items as sold when they are sold.
What you can't sell
Weapons, ammunition and explosives; drugs and drug equipment; alcohol and tobacco, including vapes; medicines and prescription products; live animals and animal parts; human organs or blood; identity documents, certificates and licences; stolen goods; fakes, replicas and copies of branded goods; currency, lottery tickets and “investment” or money-making schemes; adult content and services; and anything else that is illegal where you or the buyer live. Ads with these items, or with scam wording, are refused or removed, and the account may be banned.
Rules for buyers
- Meet the seller in a safe public place, check the item, and only then pay.
- Never pay in advance, never share an OTP or UPI PIN, and never scan a QR code to receive money.
- Be respectful. Do not harass anyone, and do not use chats to promote other services.
Reports and removal
Anyone can report an ad. When several different people report the same ad, it is hidden until our team checks it. We may refuse, hide or remove ads, and suspend or ban accounts, with or without warning, if we believe they break these terms or the law.
Free ads and Boost
- Posting ads is free, up to a limit of live ads at a time and new ads per day shown in the app. Ads stay live for 30 days and can be renewed for free.
- Boost is an optional digital item: it shows one of your ads at the top of the list for a few days (the number of days is shown before you buy). You pay with Telegram Stars inside Telegram, or in Indian rupees (UPI, card or net banking through Razorpay) on the website. It is a one-time payment and nothing renews by itself.
- A Boost does not guarantee a sale or any number of views. If an ad is removed for breaking these terms, the Boost on it is not refunded.
- If a Boost did not work, message us and we will fix it or refund it. See our Refund policy.
You are responsible for your deals
- We do not check items, sellers or buyers beyond phone or Google verification, and we do not take part in payments, delivery or meetings.
- Any dispute about an item, a payment or a meeting is between the buyer and the seller. We may help where we can, for example by removing an account, but we are not a party to it.
- If you are in danger or have been cheated, contact the police first (in India, call 112, or report cyber fraud at 1930 or cybercrime.gov.in). Then report it to us.
User content
Ads, photos and messages are created by users, not by us. We act as an intermediary for this content under the Information Technology Act, 2000. We filter some wording automatically but do not check every ad and do not endorse any seller, buyer or item. We remove content and accounts that break these terms or the law when we become aware of them. By posting an ad you allow us to show it, including its photo, in Occrr Market and in Occrr Market channels on Telegram.
No guarantees
Occrr Market is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, to the fullest extent permitted by law. We do not promise that you will sell or find anything, that users are who they say they are, that items are as described, or that the service will always be available, error-free or secure. We may change, pause or remove any feature at any time.
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Occrr and the people who run it are not liable for the conduct, statements or actions of any buyer or seller; the quality, safety, legality or delivery of any item; any loss arising from contact or deals with other users, including fraud; indirect or consequential losses; or problems caused by services we rely on but do not control, such as Telegram, Google, Cloudflare, Supabase and Razorpay. If we are found liable for something connected with a Boost, our liability is limited to the amount you paid for it. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have that cannot be limited by law, including under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 and the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023.
Indemnity
If someone makes a claim against us because of your ads, your items, your conduct towards other users, or your breach of these terms or the law, you agree to cover the losses and reasonable costs this causes us, to the extent permitted by law.
Changes to these terms
We will tell you in the app or through our bot before important changes take effect. Continuing to use Occrr Market after that means you accept the new terms.
Law and contact
These terms are governed by the laws of India. Any dispute will be handled by the courts at Chandigarh, India, unless the law gives you the right to go to a different court. For questions or complaints, message @OccrrMarket_bot or use our Contact page. If any part of these terms is found to be unenforceable, the rest stays in effect.
