How it works

From a U.S. listing to your port

  1. 1

    Find a car

    Every listing shows whether it can be imported to Nigeria (more countries coming) and an estimated total cost.

  2. 2

    Reserve it

    Free, no obligation. Choose a shipper and get your shipping quote upfront.

  3. 3

    Pay into escrow

    Pay ShipMova's fee, then the car price into Escrow.com — not to the seller.

  4. 4

    Inspection, pickup, shipping

    An independent inspector checks the car; your shipper collects it with the original title; then the seller is paid and your car ships.

See exactly how it works

Who holds your money

Your money never goes to a stranger.

  1. 1

    You pay ShipMova's fee by card. It covers verification and coordination.

  2. 2

    You pay the car price into Escrow.com. It's held there — not by the seller, not by ShipMova.

  3. 3

    An inspector checks the car in person and confirms it matches the listing.

  4. 4

    Your shipper collects the car and the original title. U.S. law requires the original title for export.

  5. 5

    Only then does Escrow.com pay the seller.

  6. 6

    Your car ships and you track it to your port. Your shipper's cargo insurance covers it at sea.

ShipMova will never…

  • send you bank details on WhatsApp, email or text
  • ask you to pay a person directly
  • change payment instructions after you’ve started

If anyone does, it’s a scam — stop and message us.

What the 8% covers

Every car on ShipMova goes through checks you can't easily do yourself from your country:

  • Seller identity

    government ID check before any listing goes live.

  • Ownership

    the name on the title must match the verified seller.

  • VIN and title history

    checked against U.S. national title records for salvage, junk, flood and odometer problems, and against theft records.

  • Import check

    we flag cars that can't legally enter Nigeria before you pay anything (more countries coming).

  • In-person inspection

    an independent inspector checks the car, VIN, mileage and title at pickup.

  • Verified shippers

    licensed, bonded and insured for cargo. We check this ourselves, not from their paperwork.

  • Protected payment

    your money is held by Escrow.com, a licensed escrow company, never sent to the seller or ShipMova directly.

  • Support until it ships

    secure messaging, dispute handling, and a real person on WhatsApp.

ShipMova’s fee is 8% of the car price, shown before you commit. On some listings the seller pays half — look for the “Seller splits the fee” badge. Escrow.com’s fee is shown separately.

Why buy with ShipMova?

Buying a car from America shouldn't mean trusting a stranger with your savings.

  • Your money is protected

    The car price is held by Escrow.com and only paid to the seller after the car is inspected and in your shipper's hands with the title. You never wire a stranger.

  • Real cars, real owners

    Every seller's ID is verified, the name on the title must match, and the VIN is checked against U.S. records before a listing goes live.

  • Know it can come home

    Every listing shows whether the car can legally be imported to Nigeria (more countries coming)

  • No surprise costs

    Car price, ShipMova fee, escrow fee and a shipping estimate, shown upfront.

  • Someone checks the car for you

    An independent inspector verifies the VIN, mileage, title and condition in person before pickup.

  • Buy direct from the owner

    U.S. owner prices, one clear fee, and a real person on WhatsApp.
