Why people stay

The photo is the product.

Every delivery closes with photos, GPS coordinates, and a PIN spoken by your family at the door. Not a courier's checkbox — proof you can see, minutes after it happens.

That feeling when the photo arrives? That's what you're buying.

Questions

The questions you're actually asking

Sending care from thousands of miles away should come with straight answers.

Is this a scam? +

Fair question — we'd ask it too. Adera is a registered Ethiopian company with a named founder, operating in Addis Ababa. Every delivery is photographed with GPS coordinates, your family confirms receipt with a PIN, and if anything is ever wrong we refund first and investigate second. Money-back guarantee, no conditions.

Why not just send money? +

Keep sending money for the things money is for. Adera is for the monthly certainty: you know exactly what $79 becomes — this box, at her door, photographed. No wondering, no asking your mother to carry cash to the market.

My cousin already buys groceries for my parents. +

Great — keep him for emergencies. Does he go every month on schedule? Send you the receipt and a photo? Never "borrow" from the budget? We do the boring, reliable monthly work so family stays family.

What if my mother isn't home? +

The runner calls 30 minutes ahead in Amharic, and reschedules for free if needed. Failed deliveries are our problem, not yours — you'll see an incident report and a new delivery time the same day.

Which parts of Addis do you cover? +

All sub-cities of Addis Ababa, starting with Bole, Yeka and Kirkos with same-week onboarding. Other cities — Bahir Dar, Hawassa, Adama — are on the roadmap; join and we'll tell you when.

How do I pay? +

Any international Visa or Mastercard, in USD. Billing is monthly and cancellable anytime from your dashboard. We never auto-charge without an active plan.
