Three parties, no grey zones. The fee is due only if the deal closes. We make money when you make money, not before.
A store is not a single file. It is a domain, a storefront, ad accounts, suppliers. So funds release in stages, not in one lump.
Domain and store transferred. First tranche released.
Ad accounts, supplier intro, and a 7 to 14 day inspection window. Final tranche released.
The default rails for every deal. We cover the fee.
Buyer funds escrow by wire. Simple and traceable.
Funds release in tranches as assets transfer, not all at once.
Certifies the data read from the connected APIs, coordinates escrow, and keeps the deal room running. We are not a party to your agreement and we do not audit the business.
Holds the funds. Releases only against the milestone schedule. Disputes over money go through their process, not ours.
Run the diligence, verify what is not API-read, and confirm each asset before escrow closes. Caveat emptor is real; we give you the tools, not the guarantee.
Before the LOI
Walk away freely. An offer is non-binding, nothing is owed.
After the LOI, before escrow
Walk-away terms are the LOI's own: it frames exclusivity and timelines, not a forced sale.
During transfer and inspection
Escrow milestones protect you: if the assets do not match the listing, do not confirm receipt, use the Verified Transfer check, file the mismatch in the deal room, and open a dispute on Escrow.com before funds release.
After closing
Seller declarations survive closing in the APA. A misrepresentation discovered later is a contract claim against the seller; the verification snapshot is your evidence.
You will only ever pay on escrow.com. Anyone asking you to wire anywhere else, in any currency, for any reason, is fraud. Report it to us immediately.
We are not a broker of record, not an auditor, not a notary, and not a securities intermediary. We are a data integrity layer with an escrow process: we certify what the connected APIs report and we keep both sides honest through the transfer. Everything else belongs to your own diligence and your own advisers.
The fee is low on purpose. It is cheaper than setting up a private APA and escrow yourselves. Escrow removes the non-payment risk on both sides, and asset fraud is addressed by milestone-gated transfer and the inspection period. Deals started on TrustExits are meant to close on {siteName}. See the fees for the full breakdown.
Revenue is read straight from Shopify payouts and Stripe, not from screenshots. Every listing shows what was verified and what was not.
Every deal closes through Escrow.com. We cover the escrow fee. Funds release only after the assets are transferred.
Buyers pay nothing to browse, make offers, or close. The seller pays one success fee at closing. That is it.
