Clear pricing for every escrow deal. You choose the hold period and who pays the service fee—the amount shown at checkout is the amount that applies.
How your escrow fee is calculated
Service fee rate starts at 5%
, plus 0.1% for each hold day you select.
The fee in USDT is that percentage of the deal amount. Hold days are the number of days after delivery the buyer has to confirm receipt before funds auto-release to the seller.

1. Platform escrow fee
Based on the deal amount, hold period, and any category offer. Set when the seller creates the deal. You choose whether the buyer, seller, or both share this fee—and that choice stays fixed for the deal.
2. Payment method fee (buyer)
A fixed USDT amount for the payment option used (for example Binance Pay or USDT transfer), added to what the buyer sends. This covers payment processing and is separate from the escrow service fee.
3. Payout method fee (seller)
When the seller withdraws funds, a fixed fee for the chosen payout method is deducted from the transfer. This is separate from the escrow service fee.
Payment & payout method fees
Fixed USDT amounts by payment or payout method. The buyer may see these when paying in; the seller when choosing how to receive funds.

Frequently asked questions
When is the escrow fee collected?
The fee is defined when the deal is created. The buyer’s share (full fee, or half on a 50/50 split) is included in the amount due when they submit payment proof.
The seller’s share (full fee, or half on split) is deducted when they request payout after a successful release.
The full escrow service fee applies when the deal completes successfully.
What if the deal is canceled or never completes?
Escrow service fees apply to completed deals. If a deal is canceled or does not complete, refunds and any amounts already paid are handled under our Escrow Rules and Terms of Service.
Can I split the fee with the buyer?
Yes. When creating a deal, choose Split 50/50: half of the escrow fee is added to the buyer’s payment and half is deducted from the seller’s payout. You can also choose Buyer pays or Seller pays for the full amount on one side.
Are payment and payout fees the same as the escrow fee?
No. The escrow service fee is a percentage based on the deal amount and hold period.
Payment method fees are fixed amounts when the buyer pays in.
Payout fees are fixed amounts when the seller receives funds. All three may apply on the same deal.
