4. NATURE OF PRODUCT LISTINGS AND CONTRACT FORMATION
All Product descriptions and listings displayed on the Platform constitute an invitation to treat and shall not be interpreted as a legally binding offer.
A binding contract of sale is formed only when:

- Incomplete or inconsistent vehicle information
- Regulatory or compliance concerns
Where payment has been received for a cancelled Order, Zefix shall refund the amount paid using the original payment method.
5. PRODUCT INFORMATION AND TECHNICAL DISCLAIMER
Zefix supplies automotive spare parts, which by their nature require precise technical compatibility with specific vehicles.
While Zefix endeavors to ensure that Product descriptions, images, and compatibility information are accurate and up to date, such information is provided strictly for general guidance purposes and shall not constitute a warranty of exact compatibility.
The Customer bears sole responsibility for verifying that the Product is suitable for their specific vehicle. The Customer must ensure the accuracy of all information provided, including but not limited to:
- Vehicle make
- Model
- Year of manufacture
- Engine type and displacement
- Trim level or variant
- VIN (Vehicle Identification Number), where requested
Where the Customer fails to provide complete and accurate vehicle information, Zefix shall not be liable for incompatibility or incorrect fitment.
Given the technical nature of automotive components, Zefix strongly recommends installation by a licensed and qualified automotive technician. Zefix shall not be responsible for damage resulting from improper installation or misuse.
Electrical, electronic, and sensor-based components are particularly sensitive and may not be eligible for return once installed or connected, unless defective upon delivery.
6. PRICING, TAXES, AND PAYMENT
All prices are displayed in Ghanaian Cedi (GHS) and include applicable statutory taxes unless expressly indicated otherwise.

- Cash on Delivery (if applicable and available)
For Mobile Money transactions, dispatch shall occur only after confirmed receipt of funds. Zefix shall not be liable for delays or errors attributable to telecommunications providers or payment intermediaries.
The Customer warrants that they are authorized to use the selected payment method and accepts full responsibility for any unauthorized use arising from their negligence.
7. DELIVERY AND TRANSFER OF RISK
Delivery services are available within Ghana through appointed logistics providers.
Estimated delivery timelines are indicative only and shall not constitute a binding obligation. Delays may arise due to traffic conditions, public holidays, logistics constraints, or unforeseen events.
Risk in the Product transfers to the Customer upon physical delivery and acceptance of the goods at the delivery address provided.
The Customer is obligated to inspect the Product immediately upon receipt and to notify Zefix within twenty-four (24) hours of any visible damage or discrepancy.

- Indirect or consequential damages;
