1. Platform role
MantaBid provides technology through which buyers may publish requests for quotations (“RFQs”) and sellers may discover opportunities, publish business information, communicate, and submit quotations. MantaBid is not the buyer, seller, manufacturer, exporter, importer, carrier, payment guarantor, or contracting party in transactions between users.
2. No guarantee of commercial results
Access to an RFQ or submission of a quotation does not guarantee a response, shortlist, negotiation, purchase order, contract, payment, or other commercial result. Buyers decide whether and with whom to transact. Sellers participate and spend credits at their own commercial risk. Credits are not charged for submitting a quotation.
3. RFQ review and moderation
MantaBid may review an RFQ before or after publication but does not promise a review or publication time. We may edit formatting, request clarification, limit visibility, reject, suspend, close, or remove any RFQ, quotation, profile, product, storefront, document, message, or other content at our discretion to protect the Platform, enforce our rules, or comply with law.
4. Buyer accounts and inquiries
A buyer cannot finish signing up until the email address used for the account has been confirmed, so every buyer account created through public signup has passed that step. Email confirmation shows that the address can receive messages. It does not confirm the buyer’s identity, company, authority, or intent to buy.
MantaBid does not control the content of the inquiries buyers post and does not vouch for their accuracy, completeness, or intent. Review or publication of an inquiry is not an endorsement. If a seller has concerns about a particular inquiry, they should verify it directly with the buyer through Platform chat before sharing pricing, certificates, samples, or any other sensitive business details.
5. Seller verification
MantaBid may request and review business-registration, tax, certification, identity, or other records to assess seller authenticity. A verification badge reflects only the checks performed at a particular time. It is not an endorsement, warranty, audit, guarantee of quality, or assurance of future conduct. Buyers remain responsible for their own due diligence.
6. Availability and maintenance
The Platform is provided on an “as available” basis. We do not guarantee uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free operation. For scheduled maintenance, we intend to send account holders an email at least one week in advance. Emergency maintenance, security work, outages, and events beyond our control may occur without advance notice.
7. User transactions and mediation
Users are responsible for negotiating and documenting price, specifications, samples, quality control, delivery, insurance, taxes, customs, payment, warranties, and remedies. MantaBid may, but is not required to, offer informal mediation. Any mediation is non-binding, does not make MantaBid responsible for the transaction, and is relied upon at the users’ own risk.
8. Support
Support is available through the contact details below during 04:00 to 16:00 Pakistan Standard Time. Response and resolution times are not guaranteed and may vary with volume, complexity, and service availability.
