Scrowise is the trusted middleman for digital‑asset transactions. The buyer sends money into escrow, the seller hands over the asset under Scrowise’s supervision, and once the transfer is verified, the seller is paid and the buyer fully owns what they bought. So, neither side ever has to rely on the other’s word alone.
Scrowise supports five main business types: social media accounts, SaaS and software, websites and online businesses, domain names, and gaming assets. For social media, Scrowise currently works with YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and X, and other asset types (SaaS, sites, domains, gaming) are covered regardless of the underlying platform or tech stack.
The clock starts when the buyer’s payment is verified in escrow. After that, timing mostly depends on how quickly the seller completes the transfer. On Escrow Pro, the handover is booked into a human‑agent slot, which opens no earlier than the next business day, and the seller’s payout follows a 3–7‑day hold after the handover is verified.
The allocation of the escrow fee is determined by the parties. It may be added on top of the buyer’s payment, deducted from the seller’s payout, or shared between both sides, which is the most common structure. The fee arrangement is selected when the deal terms are agreed and the escrow contract is executed. The fee calculator shows the exact amount.
Scrowise wires the payout to your bank account in your local currency, using fair market exchange rates and covering the wire transfer fees. If international bank transfers are not supported for your country, Scrowise offers alternative payout methods such as PayPal, Western Union, or cryptocurrency, agreed with you during the transaction setup.
The buyer's money never reaches the seller on the strength of a promise. Scrowise holds it, checks the payment receipt, and releases it only after the handover is verified. If the handover is contested, the funds stay frozen while the dispute is reviewed.
Escrow Plus is a direct buyer-and-seller escrow: one shared thread, both sides confirm the handover, and either side can upload evidence in a dispute. Escrow Pro routes the deal through Scrowise: each side talks to an agent privately, the handover is booked into an agent slot, and the agent verifies it. Pro costs more and has no direct buyer-seller thread.
You can open a dispute at the handover stage. The funds stay frozen, confirmations are cleared and booked slots are released while a Scrowise administrator reviews the case and decides the outcome. On Escrow Plus both sides can also upload evidence files.
If we cannot verify the payment we show the reason, and the buyer can submit new proof straight away. The handover stage only unlocks once the payment is verified.
Before the handover stage begins, either side can request to cancel the transaction. If both parties agree, the escrow is closed and funds are returned to the buyer, minus any non‑refundable payment processing costs where applicable.
