Imagine you're Temi, a freelance designer in Lagos. You stay up late creating a stunning logo for a new client. To protect yourself, you watermark it. But the client takes the design, disappears, and never pays. Your creativity? Stolen. Your time? Wasted.

Or picture Chidi, a furniture merchant in Abuja. He delivers a handcrafted chair to a customer, only for them to slam the door and vanish without payment. Worse still, some customers cancel after delivery, leaving him with losses and logistics headaches.

These stories are all too common. But there's a better way.

Escrow: The Trusted Middleman for Fair Transactions

Escrow is like a neutral friend who holds money until both sides fulfill their promises. The buyer deposits funds with an escrow provider—like Pandascrow—and the money is only released when the seller delivers, and the buyer confirms satisfaction.

No games. No scams. Just peace of mind.

Whether you're delivering creative work or physical goods, escrow ensures everyone plays fair.


Why Freelancers and Merchants in Nigeria Need Escrow

If you're a freelancer, you've probably been ghosted after delivering a project. If you're a merchant, maybe you've lost money on deliveries that customers refused or disappeared from. Escrow solves these problems for good.

How Pandascrow Helps:

  • Freelancers: Get paid for your work—every design, article, or line of code, before the client gets the final delivery.
  • Merchants: Deliver confidently. If a customer cancels or misbehaves, your money stays protected.
  • Buyers: Enjoy peace of mind. Funds stay locked until they receive and approve the product or service.

Even large business deals benefit. From tech projects to furniture contracts to agro-supplies, escrow ensures trust, transparency, and fairness.

What Makes Pandascrow Stand Out?

  • Safe: Funds are securely locked until both sides fulfill the deal.
  • Simple: Designed to work like a chat—fast, friendly, and intuitive.
  • Affordable: Low fees mean you keep more of your hard-earned money.
  • Reliable: Works with trusted partners like Dojah for ID verification and Paystack, Stripe, Flutterwave, or more for seamless payments.

Real Stories: How Escrow Changed Everything for Temi and Chidi

Temi's Story

Temi had been burned by clients who vanished after stealing her designs. But now, using Pandascrow, a client deposits ₦150,000 before she starts work. She finishes the logo, sends it confidently, no watermark needed, and once the client approves it, the money is released to her.

If there's ever an issue, Pandascrow mediates.

Chidi's Story

After losing money on unpaid deliveries, Chidi now uses Pandascrow for every sale. A buyer transfers ₦600,000 into escrow. Chidi delivers the chair. Once the customer confirms, he gets paid.

If the customer cancels or tries anything shady, Chidi's money stays safe.

Even B2B Deals Are Covered

Let's say Chidi orders wood from a supplier. Instead of paying upfront and risking ghosting, he uses Pandascrow. The supplier only gets paid after delivery.

No delivery? No payment. Simple.
