Keep payment and the transaction inside Vinted. Moving payment off-platform can remove platform protections and is a common warning sign for scams.
Do not move payment to bank transfer, PayPal friends-and-family, gift cards or another private method because a buyer asks. Keep the sale inside Vinted’s normal checkout and follow the current Vinted safety guidance.
Off-platform payment can make it harder to prove what happened, can remove protections and may breach marketplace rules.

A buyer saying “Vinted payment is broken, send me your email/card details” is not a reason to leave the platform.
Do not trust a screenshot claiming payment was made. Check the actual order status inside your Vinted account.
Give a meaningful change enough time to collect evidence. Look at views, favourites, offers, final selling price and days-to-sell together. One number on its own can be misleading. Vinted can change features, ranking behaviour and marketplace rules, so use the current in-app guidance for anything policy-specific.
