Marketplace escrow through Escrow.com

For higher-value trades, escrow is available on request through Escrow.com. The escrow service is provided by Escrow.com, not by TrustVerify: the buyer's payment is held by Escrow.com until the agreed conditions are met, and TrustVerify's checks help confirm who is on each side of the trade.

How escrow works

  1. Buyer and seller agree the terms.
  2. The buyer pays into escrow with Escrow.com.
  3. The seller sends the item or service.
  4. The buyer confirms, and Escrow.com releases the funds.

Who provides the escrow

Escrow is provided by Escrow.com, a third party, and is available on request. TrustVerify never holds funds.

Pairing escrow with seller checks

Verify sellers first with seller verification, KYB and AML screening, then use escrow for higher-value trades.

When to offer escrow

High-value items, new sellers, or trades between parties with no history.
