What it means practically

Sellers generally won't accept payment methods that allow chargebacks, and "sales are final once payment is sent" is standard language across this entire market as a direct result — not a policy unique to any one seller.

FAQ

Can a buyer reverse a crypto payment?

No — that finality is precisely why it's the standard payment method here, and why "sales are final" is standard language across this market.

How do I actually buy a username I see on TAILGATED?

Open the vault, pick a listed username, and DM the contact handle shown on the site to arrange payment — there's no cart/checkout, it's a direct conversation with the seller.

What payment method does TAILGATED use?
