Escrow is not for every deal
Escrow is not for every deal. It works when the two sides do not have a reason to trust each other yet, and it stops making sense when the relationship already carries its own track record.
Three moments that deserve neutral ground
It is the first order with this partner
No trade history, no shared references, and no reason for either side to go first.
An order that would hurt to lose
When the invoice is large enough that a wrong guess would leave a mark, escrow takes the risk off the table.
Delivery in stages
When the work or the shipment arrives in milestones, escrow can release the funds step by step, matching the progress.
When escrow is not the answer
If you and the other party have been doing business for years and the payments have always arrived, adding an escrow would be a cost without a reason. For those relationships, a simpler payment flow is often enough.
