Escrow Service
- As more cars are sold online, scammers continue to take advantage of international buyers. Faked listings, photos, or fraudulent titles have surprised buyers after transferring funds, and sellers have disappeared.
- Our escrow service aims to create a secure transaction that ensures funds are only transferred when the existence of vehicles and their roadworthiness is confirmed.
What is escrow and when to use it?
Not everyone feels comfortable sending money for a vehicle located in another part of the world. Never see the vehicle in person, and all contact with the seller has been via email or telephone.
In most cases, the seller disappears with the money. You can hire a lawyer and try to recover your funds, but this takes time and additional money. It's also possible that after buying the vehicle, you discover that the VIN number and titles do not match, so the vehicle cannot be exported or imported.
Our escrow service provides a secure way to pay for vehicles abroad. Without worries about sellers who disappear with money or false documents. We pay for the vehicle at the time of pickup, verify that the documents and VIN numbers match, that there are no pending liens on the title, and we collect the car along with the necessary documents for export.
Safe Online Transaction
A vehicle delivery will be provided by our company as an Escrow service. What is an Escrow service?
An escrow is a financial arrangement where a third party holds and regulates payment of the funds required for two parties involved in a given transaction. It helps make transactions more secure by keeping the payment in a secure escrow account which is only released when all of the terms of an agreement are met as overseen by the escrow company.
Escrows are very useful in the case of a transaction where a large amount money is involved and a certain number of obligations need to be fulfilled before a payment is released like in the case of a website being built where the buyer might want confirmation of the quality of work being done before making a full payment, and the seller doesn’t want to extend a massive amount of work without any assurance that he or she will receive payment. While traditional escrow service is quite difficult and must be obtained through banks and lawyers, our company provides online escrow services at affordable rates. While the payment is 'In Escrow' the transaction can be safely carried out without risk of losing money or vehicle due to fraud. This eliminates all legal jargon and allows for secure transactions and confident buyers and sellers.
