Frequently Asked Questions about how TradeSafe Works

What is 'escrow'?

Escrow is a legal arrangement in which cash is deposited for safekeeping with a neutral third party pending the completion of contractual obligations. Once the obligations have been met, the escrow agent (TradeSafe) will transfer the assets or cash to the other party as prescribed in the contract.

Who can use TradeSafe?

Anybody who is uncertain of the other party or feels unsafe or insecure when transacting. Buyers (including customers, clients, or investors) should use TradeSafe whenever they are asked to pay a deposit or full payment upfront before receiving the goods or services from the other party.

Sellers (including suppliers, service providers, and investee companies) should use TradeSafe to be certain that the buyer has the funds for the transaction to begin with.

Sellers are also guaranteed that they will be paid in full and on time (no more than 60 days in arrears…thank you very much)

What does TradeSafe cost?

Registration is free. We only charge a fee on a per transaction basis.
