How we work

SA Trade Guaranteed Escrow typically works through the following steps:

SA Trade Guaranteed Escrow service provides a secure and reliable way to facilitate transactions between buyers and sellers. By holding the buyer's funds in a dedicated escrow account, SA Trade Guaranteed Escrow ensures that the money is only released to the seller once they have fulfilled their obligations, such as delivering the goods or providing the agreed-upon services. This arrangement protects buyers from fraud and ensures that they receive what they paid for, while also guaranteeing that sellers will receive their payment once they meet the terms of the agreement. This mutual protection fosters trust and encourages smoother transactions in various marketplaces

01.

Buyer and seller agree on terms

The buyer and seller agree on the terms of the transaction, including the price, delivery details, and any conditions that must be met for the transaction to be completed.

02.

Buyer deposits funds 

The buyer initiates the escrow process by making a payment to SA Trade Guaranteed Escrow. This payment is held in a secure escrow account and is not released until the transaction conditions are met..

03.

 Notification to Seller

Once the payment is received, SA Trade Guaranteed Escrow notifies the seller that funds are secured in escrow. The seller can then proceed with fulfilling their part of the agreement, such as shipping the product or providing the service.

04.

Delivery of Goods/Services

The seller delivers the goods or services to the buyer according to the agreed-upon terms.

After receiving the goods or services, the buyer inspects them to ensure they meet the agreed specifications. The buyer then confirms to SA Trade Guaranteed Escrow that they are satisfied with the transaction.

Upon receiving confirmation from the buyer, SA Trade Guaranteed Escrow releases the funds to the seller. If there are any disputes or issues, SA Trade Guaranteed Escrow may mediate between the parties to resolve them.

Once the funds are released and both parties are satisfied, the transaction is considered complete. SA Trade Guaranteed Escrow may also provide an option for both parties to leave feedback or reviews about their experience.
