Escrow

Escrow is a neutral hold on a payment until both sides of a trade do their part, protecting buyers and sellers.

Escrow is the safety mechanism at the heart of P2P trading. When a buyer pays, the money is held by the platform — not the seller — until the buyer confirms the order was delivered as described. If something goes wrong, a dispute decides where the funds go.
