How Escrow Works · Escrows Click

Every escrow deal starts with an agreement. The more specific your terms, the fewer disputes you'll have. Here's a template you can copy, paste, and customize for any digital trade — whether it's a social media account, a domain, software, or an NFT.

Digital Trade Agreement Template#

[Date]\n\nParties:\nSeller: [Name / Handle / Wallet Address]\nBuyer: [Name / Handle / Wallet Address]\n\nAsset Description:\n[Exact description of the digital asset being traded, including any identifying numbers, URLs, or contract addresses]\n\nPurchase Price:\n[Amount in USD and equivalent crypto amount, plus agreed network (e.g., USDT TRC20)]\n\nDelivery Method:\n[Step-by-step description of how the asset will be transferred]\n\nInspection Period:\n[Length of time the buyer has to verify delivery, e.g., 48 hours for accounts, 7 days for domains]\n\nPayment Method:\n[Escrow platform and crypto/fiat method]\n\nRepresentations:\nSeller represents that they are the lawful owner of the asset, it is free of liens or encumbrances, and it will function as described for the inspection period.\n\nGoverning Law:\n[Optional: jurisdiction for dispute resolution]\n\nSignatures:\n[Seller signature / digital signature / wallet signature]\n[Buyer signature / digital signature / wallet signature]

How to use this inside Escrows Click#

  • Copy the relevant sections into the deal description when creating the escrow deal.
  • Both parties can edit and agree on terms before funding.
  • Once funded, the terms are locked — any changes require written mutual consent.
  • In a dispute, the mediator uses the agreed terms as the binding contract.

What makes an agreement enforceable#

Specificity is everything. 'Sell my Instagram account' is not an agreement. 'Sell Instagram account @example with 45,000 followers, original email access, for $3,500 USDT TRC20, with a 72-hour inspection window' is. The more detail, the less room for interpretation — and the faster any dispute resolves.
