Yes. Funds are held by an EU-regulated trust account partner. We never touch the money directly. Your buyer's deposit is protected by the same rules that protect notary client funds.

A small percentage per transaction, sized to the deal value. Ecommerce orders pay flat-rate cents; high-value goods scale gently. We share the rate card on the demo call.

How fast can we go live?

Pilot customers are live in 3–5 working days. Plug-and-play for Shopify and WooCommerce. API access for everyone else.

What happens during a dispute?

Funds freeze. Both parties submit evidence through the dashboard. We mediate based on the conditions you set up front. If we can't resolve it, the deal reverts to your local civil court — but the audit trail goes with it.

Which countries are supported?

EU and EEA first — we're based in the Netherlands. UK and Switzerland next. Ask us about anywhere else; we're moving fast.

How the money moves

Where buyer and seller finally meet.

One neutral account sits between both sides. Funds only move when the conditions you set are met — so nobody has to go first on trust.

Buyer

Pays in, risk-free

Escrow Invoice

EU-regulated trust account

Seller

Ships with certainty

Step 1/4Buyer pays into escrow

Two ways to use it

One product. Two markets that bleed trust.

Wherever a buyer hesitates and a seller waits, escrow turns the standoff into a transaction.

For online stores

Escrow checkout for ecommerce.

Add a Pay-via-Escrow option to your checkout. Buyers commit without risk, you ship without worry, funds release on delivery.

Cuts abandonment in trust-sensitive categories
Replaces cash-on-delivery with something cleaner
One-line plugin for Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento
Reads fraud signals — flags risky orders before you ship

↳A €240 first-time purchase from a buyer in Italy. They hesitate. With Escrow Invoice they pay today, you ship today, funds clear when tracking shows delivered.

For high-value goods

Programmable escrow for big-ticket deals.

Watches, art, used cars, machinery, B2B equipment, milestone projects. Define release conditions in plain English. We do the rest.

Release on inspection, delivery, signature or date
Split into milestones — pay as work completes
Dispute window of your choice (3, 7, 14, 30 days)
Audit trail every party can see

↳A €38,000 Rolex sold privately across borders. Funds held. Released only after the buyer's watchmaker authenticates and signs off — or refunded automatically if they don't.

How it works

Three steps. Minutes, not weeks.

Step 01
Create the invoice
Add the parties, the amount and the conditions for release. Either through our dashboard or the API.
Step 02
Buyer pays into escrow
Funds land in an EU-regulated trust account. Both parties get a live status link. Nothing moves yet.
Step 03
Release on proof
Conditions met → funds release to the seller. Dispute raised → we mediate, refund, or escalate. Either way it's resolved.
