Secure Your Transactions: How Proxtera’s Escrow Service Ensures Safe and Trustworthy Deals.

What is Escrow and How It Works Through Proxtera?

In the world of online transactions, ensuring that both buyers and sellers fulfil their obligations can be challenging. Escrow services reduce the associated risk by acting as a neutral third party that holds funds until all transaction terms are met.

This process reduces the risk of fraud, creating a safer and more trustworthy environment for both parties. Proxtera, through its partnership with Escrow.com, offers its users a seamless, secure service.

Understanding Escrow

Escrow is a financial arrangement where a third party, the escrow agent, holds and regulates the payment of funds required for two parties involved in a given transaction.

Key Benefits of Escrow:

1. Fraud Prevention: By holding funds until all conditions are met, escrow services minimize the risk of fraud.

2. Security: Funds are kept in a secure escrow account, safeguarding both parties’ money.

3. Transparency: Both buyers and sellers can track the transaction’s progress.

4. Dispute Resolution: In case of disputes, the escrow service can join a mediation and ensure a fair outcome.

How Escrow Works Through Proxtera: 

Proxtera offers an integrated escrow service in collaboration with Escrow.com. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how it functions:

Step 1. Click on the Escrow Button on Proxtera Spaces
Users must click the “Escrow” button on Proxtera Spaces to start an escrow transaction.

Step 2. Buyer and Seller Agree to Terms
Either the buyer or seller initiates the transaction. After registering on Escrow.com, both parties must agree to the transaction terms, such as the price, delivery conditions, and inspection period.

Step 3. Buyer Pays Escrow.com
The buyer submits the payment using an approved method to Escrow.com’s secure escrow account. Once the payment is verified, the seller is notified that the funds are secured “In Escrow.”

Step 4. Seller Ships Merchandise to Buyer
Upon payment verification, the seller is authorized to ship the merchandise. The seller must provide tracking information to Escrow.com, which then verifies that the buyer has received the merchandise.

Step 5. Buyer Accepts Merchandise
The buyer is given a specified period to inspect the merchandise and accept or reject it based on the agreed terms. If the buyer accepts the merchandise, the process moves to the final step.

Step 6. Escrow.com Pays the Seller
Once the buyer accepts the merchandise, Escrow.com releases the funds from the escrow account to the seller, completing the transaction.
