Your money goes to the captain. Never through us.
Buyers pay by bank transfer straight to the captain's account. MasMaaru never holds the money and takes nothing from a sale.

Questions
When can I get the app?
Soon, on the App Store and Google Play. We're testing it with captains and buyers first.
Does it cost anything?
It's free for buyers. Captains get the first 3 months free; after that, the plan is arranged with our team.
Do I have to weigh the fish?
No. Fish are sold whole, by count and size: small, medium or large. Reef fish can also be sold by the bucket.
What if there's no signal at sea?
Post anyway. Your catch is saved on the phone and sent automatically when the signal is back.
Can one account buy and sell?
Yes. Once your boat is set up, switch between Buying and Selling in the app.
Who sees my phone number and bank details?
Only the other person in a reservation, and the MasMaaru team. The privacy policy has the details. Privacy
