FAQs
Vitrina follows a double opt-in protocol for buyers and sellers to connect on our platform. We do not provide buyers with direct contact information for vendors. Instead, buyers create a Request-For-Information (RFI) document outlining their requirements and reason for contact. Anonymized RFI is then shared with qualifying sellers in the Vitrina network who meet the criteria. Interested sellers can apply for the opportunity, and both parties are introduced to each other with mutual consent. This process ensures a secure and transparent connection between buyers and sellers on Vitrina.
