Buying or selling a software subscription? Here's how AI escrow protects both parties during the transfer.

Software subscription transfers are delicate — they involve data, billing, and user trust. Here's how AI escrow makes them safe.

The Subscription Transfer Problem

When buying a software subscription from someone:
  • How do you know the revenue is real?
  • How do you ensure the seller doesn't reclaim the account after payment?
  • How do you verify the user base is legitimate?
  • How do you transfer billing without service interruption?
Without escrow, you're trusting a stranger with thousands of dollars. With EPICSWP's AI escrow, you're protected.

The Escrow Process

Step 1: Initiate Escrow

Buyer clicks "Buy with Escrow Protection" on the SaaS listing. Payment is held by EPICSWP.

Step 2: Seller Provides Access

Seller shares in the deal chat:
  • Admin account credentials
  • Payment processor access (Stripe, PayPal)
  • Domain registrar access
  • Hosting account credentials
  • Analytics access
  • API keys and third-party integrations
  • User database export (if applicable)

Step 3: Buyer Verifies

Buyer verifies everything:
  • Logs into the admin panel
  • Checks revenue reports
  • Verifies user counts
  • Tests the application
  • Reviews analytics data
  • Checks for any security issues

Step 4: Account Transfer

Buyer:
  • Changes all passwords
  • Updates billing information
  • Transfers domain ownership
  • Updates DNS records
  • Revokes old access tokens

Step 5: Confirmation

Buyer confirms receipt. Funds are released to the seller's EPICSWP wallet.

Common Issues and How Escrow Helps

Issue: Seller reclaims account after payment → With escrow, the seller doesn't get paid until you've changed all passwords and confirmed receipt. Issue: Revenue is lower than claimed → You verify revenue before confirming. If it's lower, dispute for a partial refund. Issue: User base is mostly bots → You check analytics for engagement metrics. If users are fake, dispute. Issue: Source code is missing → You verify all deliverables before confirming. Missing items = dispute.
