25 Years of Fiduciary Trust & Safe Settlement
Founded in 1999 by Fidelity National Financial, Escrow.com pioneered internet escrow. Over a quarter century, we have grown to safeguard over $8.3 Billion across 3.9 million customers globally.
Eliminating counterparty fraud in high-value commerce.
Online fraud costs global businesses and private transactors billions of dollars each year. Since 1999, Escrow.com has set the benchmark for making remote transactions as safe as a face-to-face exchange. By serving as an audited, legally bonded fiduciary, we ensure that buyers inspect what they paid for, and sellers receive cleared payment without dispute risk.
We are licensed across 48 U.S. states, subject to recurring government audits by the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation (DFPI), and hold all funds in segregated trust accounts.
