## Summary

Escrow platforms that hold buyer funds in a regulated third-party account and release them to the seller only when delivery or contract terms are verified, reducing fraud risk in African marketplace, freelance, and cross-border trade.

## About this page

Escrow services solve one of the oldest problems in commerce: how do you pay a stranger before they've delivered, or deliver to a stranger before they've paid? An escrow platform sits between buyer and seller, holds the funds in a regulated account, and releases them only when both sides have met agreed-upon conditions. For African markets — where cross-border trade, online marketplaces, and freelance work routinely involve parties who have never met — this trust layer is becoming infrastructure rather than a nice-to-have.

The products in this category typically handle three flows: locking funds at the point of sale, tracking milestones or delivery confirmation, and releasing funds (or refunding) based on the outcome. Some operate as standalone consumer apps for used-goods and peer-to-peer transactions. Others are embedded inside [marketplaces](/tags/marketplace), [freelance platforms](/tags/recruitment), or [B2B trade](/tags/cross-border-payments) workflows via API.

Escrow is closely related to but distinct from [payment gateways](/tags/payment-gateway) and [BNPL](/tags/bnpl). A payment gateway moves money instantly from buyer to seller; escrow holds it. BNPL splits a buyer's payment over time; escrow protects a single payment until conditions are met. A product that briefly delays settlement for chargeback risk is not an escrow product — the buyer must have an explicit right to dispute and reverse the release.

Use this tag for products where escrow is a primary, user-facing feature — not a back-office reserve or float account. Where the buyer and seller both interact with the held-funds state (lock, release, dispute), this tag applies.
