What does “escrow” mean?
An escrow is a financial and legal agreement designed to protect Buyers and Sellers in a transaction. For a fee, an independent third party holds payment until everyone fulfills their responsibilities in the transaction.
With an escrow payment, the Seller will only receive the funds when the Buyer has received and accepted the products and/or services that are part of the transaction. However, the Seller knows they will receive payment because Escrow-yaply.com is holding the funds on their behalf.
How long does the escrow process take?
While most transactions are completed within 1 to 20 business days, transaction timelines are still unique to each transaction and depend on the steps below. You can estimate the timeline of your transaction below:
- Account Creation and Verification: Account creation is quick and simple. You simply fill out the required fields on Escrow-yaply.com. However, for transactions over $3,000, all users of the transaction will need to complete an individual or company account verification. Once uploaded, your verification documents will take up to one business day for Escrow.com to review.
- Buyer's Payment Method: Buyers may pay for their transactions via wire, credit card, or PayPal. For Buyers with accounts in the United States, they may also pay via ACH. Wire payments are processed within 1 - 5 business days. PayPal and credit card payments are processed within one business day. Payments received during the weekend are processed on the following business day.
- Delivery time: Delivery from Seller to Buyer depends on the delivery method, and whether Buyer and Seller are transacting digital goods, physical goods, or services. Escrow-yaply.com requires all trackable and tangible merchandise be sent via a shipping method that allows online tracking and insurance.
- Inspection Period: The Buyers and Sellers select the Inspection Period, which is between 1 - 30 days.
- Disbursement Method: Sellers can receive funds via domestic or international wire transfer or domestic ACH payments. Domestic wires are generally received within 1 business day, international wires within 3 - 5 business days, and ACH payments are generally received within 3 business days. Sellers receiving disbursements valued in excess of $500,000 USD are required to receive funds via wire transfer.
How escrow works
In a nutshell Escrow-yaply.com is a trusted third party that collects funds and disburses them when both parties involved in an online transaction are satisfied that all terms and conditions have been met.
If you think this sounds too simple to be true here are the fuss-free steps broken down even further.
- The buyer and seller register at Escrow-yaply.com where both parties agree to the terms of the transaction. These terms can include, but are not limited to, delivery time, a description of the item and the cost.
- The buyer uses the secure online system established by Escrow-yaply.com to transfer the funds for the merchandise, and the seller is notified that they money is in a holding account waiting for them to fulfill their obligations as agreed in step 1.
- The seller ships the item and provides tracking information to Escrow-yaply.com.
- The buyer has a specified time period to accept the item and advise Escrow-yaply.com that this has been accepted. If the seller rejects the item it is at this point that a dispute will be raised and Escrow-yaply.com will be required to act as a third party for resolution.
- Once the merchandise has been accepted by the purchaser, Escrow-yaply.com release the funds to the seller and the transaction is complete.
Escrow-yaply.com provides enormous benefits to both buyers and sellers no matter what area of online trading they’re involved in.
Benefits to the buyer
When making purchases online, it is hard to guarantee that you’re getting what you pay for. While confusion can often arise based on innocent misunderstandings, there are also occasions when people abuse the anonymity that the Internet provides for the purpose of deliberately misleading others to part with their money. Escrow-yaply.com removes all elements of doubt on the behalf of a buyer that their money will be spent exactly as intended.
Money isn’t released to the seller until they are satisfied with the goods and shipping and delivery are tracked by the third party which ensures that no items ‘go missing’ once a buyer has made their payment.
Benefits to the seller
The seller is notified by Escrow-yaply.com once they have received payment on their behalf which guarantees that as soon as the merchandise has been received payment will be made. This avoids those instances of having to chase customers for unpaid invoices or having to dispute those buyers who ‘didn’t receive’ their goods and are requesting refunds.
With Escrow-yaply.com, there is no need to rely on trusting a stranger to complete your online transactions. It provides a safe and secure third party environment which will ensure that your internet buying and selling take place worry-free and with ease.
Who pays for shipping?
During the agreement of terms, the Buyer and Seller agree as to who will pay for shipping. If the Seller is paying the shipping, the cost does not need to be added to the transaction.
If the Buyer is paying the shipping cost, the Seller can add the cost to the transaction. Escrow-yaply.com will collect the shipping cost along with the purchase price and any portion of the escrow fees due from the Buyer. The Seller will initially pay the shipping company directly, at the time of shipment; the Seller will be reimbursed the shipping cost at the close of the transaction. In this case, the Buyer is responsible for the shipping costs even if they reject the merchandise.
If both parties are in agreement, the Buyer can pay the shipping company directly; no shipping cost needs to be added to the transaction.
Please note, in the event the merchandise is received by the Buyer and rejected, the Buyer is always responsible to ship the merchandise back to the Seller at the Buyer's cost.
If I have any questions about the product, do I contact Escrow-yaply.com?
We highly recommend all Buyers reach out directly to their Sellers to find out more about the products and/or services being exchanged in their transactions. It is critical for both parties to agree upon the precise description of that being sold or rendered. If there are any questions about any element of the transaction, this should be clarified at the commencement of any transaction.
The product should be clearly defined in the “Description” section of the transaction, and both the Buyer and Seller must agree on all aspects of the transaction, including the “Description” section at the inception of a transaction. For complicated transactions, we recommend the Buyers and Sellers create and sign an agreement to fully clarify the product and/or services being transferred and/or completed.
Additionally, once the Buyer receives the products and/or services, the Inspection Period becomes critical to ensure the products and/or services are exactly those listed in the “Description” or agreement. If the product and/or service is not what was agreed upon at the inception of the transaction, the Buyer has the opportunity to return or reject the products and/or services before the Inspection Period expires.

If you have any additional questions, contact our customer support department through phone support, email at support@escrow-yaply.com, or chat support when they are online.
Does Escrow-yaply.com have restrictions to where they can send funds?
Yes, for the protection of our customers who select wire transfer, Escrow-yaply.com will not send funds to a specific account but also to a money transfer service.
The bank account or money service must match the customer's name via the institutions they receive payment from such as PayPal, Wise, Payoneer, and other similar money transfer services.
Are there special escrow considerations when dealing with domain names?
Yes. After the Seller transfers the domain(s), the Buyer should verify the domain registrant information is reflecting their ownership correctly before authorizing the release of the payment.
It is also recommended that, prior to transfer, the Buyer confirms that the Seller actually owns the domain(s) as well as performs lien and trademark searches; these are services that Escrow-yaply.com does not provide (but some Registrars do).
Is sending my personal information over the Internet safe?
Yes. Even though there have been widespread reports of Internet fraud in the past few years, the reports attribute most of the fraud to card information stolen the old fashioned way: by telemarketers, from mailboxes, and at places of purchase, such as restaurants and stores. In most cases, credit card information used on websites is seen by fewer eyes than the same information used at your local restaurant, thus fraud occurs less between a legitimate consumer and a merchant.
Does Escrow.com handle international domain name transactions?
Yes. Escrow-yaply.com accepts domain name transactions involving all top-level domains (TLD).
Are international sales or purchases permitted?
Escrow-yaply.com supports international transactions.
In addition, please contact your courier to ensure you have made allowances for all customs, duties, taxes, and other fees associated with international shipping. In most instances, you can expect delays in delivery due to customs inspections.
For more information on international sales or purchases, please contact our customer support department via email at support@escrow-yaply.com or chat support when they are online.
Who is responsible for taxes, customs, and import fees?
- The Seller is responsible for:
-
- Taxes
- Customs
- Import fees
However, if the Seller wishes to impose the additional fees to the Buyer, the Seller can add the additional costs to the purchase price.
Please note that Escrow-yaply.com is not responsible for any taxes, customs, or import fees related to the transaction.
If you have any additional questions, contact our customer support department via email at support@escrow-yaply.com or chat support when they are online.
Who is responsible for paying escrow fees to Escrow-yaply.com?
The Buyers and Sellers determine which party is responsible for the escrow fees.
The Buyers and Sellers can agree to one of three payment options below:
- Buyer pays 100%
- Seller pays 100%
- Buyer and Seller each pays 50%
When a Buyer pays all or half the Escrow Fee, then the fee will be added to the upfront or initial payment from the Buyer. When a Seller pays all or half the Escrow Fee, then this fee amount will be deducted from the disbursement amount due the Seller.
Cancellation or Rejection of Merchandise or Service
If the transaction is (1) canceled after the funds have been approved by Escrow-yaply.com, or (2) the merchandise or service is rejected by the Buyer, the Buyer is responsible for 100% of the Escrow Fee and return shipping fees, even if the transaction originated as the Seller paying 100% or 50% of the Escrow Fee. This is because Escrow-yaply.com deducts the Escrow Fee when returning the original payment to the Buyer.
Selecting Escrow Fee Payment Set-up
The party initiating the transaction has the opportunity to select who pays the escrow fees and the payment option, and the other party can choose to agree to this arrangement or elect to modify the Escrow Fee payment.
Will Escrow-yaply.com convert money from my local currency?
Escrow-yaply.com does not convert money between currencies.
The currency is selected when an escrow transaction is created. All funds are secured and disbursed in the same currency.
Your bank may automatically convert any monies received to your local currency. Please contact your bank for exchange rates and other costs associated with this conversion.
Can I pay in a form of currency other than U.S. Dollars?
Escrow-yaply.com supports transactions in US Dollars, Pounds, Euros, Canadian Dollars, Australian Dollars. Once the transaction is started it will continue in the same currency throughout the entire transaction. Your local bank or financial institution should handle currency exchanges. Many sites, including Yahoo Finance have conversion tables for exchange rates.
If I live outside of the United States, are there any forms of payment that you do not accept?
After filling, submitting your escrow form and contacting one of our support team member that would be assigned to you, you would be better guided on what payment methods are available at the moment depending on your country, currency and all the parameters you chose!
