Flippa Escrow FAQ

What is Escrow?

Escrow is where the funds for a transaction are kept in the custody of a third party and payment takes effect only when the specified terms have been fulfilled, for example, the website files have been transferred. It’s the safest way to make payment for digital asset purchases.

Can I still pay by Escrow.com or Paypal?

Sure - we still support both payment options. Sellers can select which payment methods they’ll accept when they list something for sale. These methods are displayed on a listing page.

As a buyer, what payment methods can I use?

Flippa Escrow currently accepts Visa, MasterCard and wire transfers. In the future we will be able to accept American Express and PayPal.

As a seller, how can I be paid?

You can be paid out to your nominated bank account or to your PayPal account.

How does it work?

Making payment via Flippa Escrow follows these three simple steps:

Buyer makes payment
The buyer securely transfers the agreed amount to the escrow vault via credit card or wire, where it is locked away for safekeeping.

Seller delivers assets to buyer
As per the agreed terms between the buyer and seller, the seller delivers the digital asset/s to the buyer.

Seller is paid
The buyer is satisfied and releases the agreed amount from escrow, which is transferred to the seller’s nominated bank or PayPal account.

How is it different to Escrow.com?

Escrow.com charge a small fee for their service, whereas Flippa Escrow is free. With Flippa Escrow, everything can be accessed from within your Sales Completion Area, which allows you to seamlessly request and make payments, rather than having to leave Flippa to set up a new account and transaction at Escrow.com.

Can I do milestone payments?

Right now Flippa Escrow only supports standard escrow payments (one lump sum) however we are looking to phase in new features shortly.
