When you’re paying someone you’ve never met, the risky moment is the payment itself. Here’s how a protected deal removes that risk — for both sides.
You’re buying something from someone online you’ve never met. You don’t want to send money first, because they might not deliver. They don’t want to deliver first, because you might not pay. Somebody has to go first — and whoever does is exposed.
A protected deal removes that standoff. Instead of going straight to the seller, your money sits in a secure vault that neither side controls — not even us. The seller can see the money is real and waiting. You keep control of when it’s released.
$0 is held by us, ever. Nobody — not even EscrowHaven — can pocket your cash or move it without your say-so.
Send money straight to a stranger
Hope they deliver as promised
Little recourse if they don’t
Risk of reversals for sellers
Money sits in a secure vault neither side controls
Seller delivers knowing the money is real
You release only after you’re satisfied
No surprise reversals once released
Four steps from agreement to payment
Set the amount and what’s being bought. You get a safe payment link to share with the other side.
You and the seller confirm the terms of the deal before any money moves.
You pay in by card, bank, or Apple/Google Pay. The money sits in a secure vault — real, but out of the seller’s reach.
Once you’ve received what you paid for, you approve — and the vault releases the payment to the seller.
When you fund a deal, your money goes into a secure vault created just for that deal — think of it as a strongbox with rules that can’t be changed once it’s set.
Neither side controls it alone — The money can’t be taken without your approval
The rules are fixed — They’re set when the deal starts and can’t be quietly altered
We can’t touch it — EscrowHaven never has access — $0 held by us, ever
It releases on your say-so — Funds go to the seller only when you approve
Your money, locked and visible
Real and waiting for the seller — but it only moves when you approve.
Most deals end with a simple approval. For the rest, there are fair ways forward.
Everything went well? You approve, and the seller is paid in full.
Most common outcome
Partial delivery? Either side can propose a split; the other accepts or counters.
Flexible middle ground
Deal can’t go ahead? The money returns to you in full.
Clean cancellation
When the two sides can’t settle it themselves, the deal can go to an independent dispute review that decides the outcome based on the evidence — and the result is carried out automatically. EscrowHaven doesn’t make that decision and never controls the money.
Pay without the risk of losing your money
The seller is motivated to deliver as promised
You decide when the payment is released
Fair options if something goes wrong
The buyer’s money is locked and real before you deliver
No surprise reversals once the payment is released
