Through our exclusive B2B platform brands can present their products directly to the retail and distributor buyers and if there is a good match the buyer lists their products and the partnership begins.

This period of money held in escrow is very important since it provides security to both the buyer and the seller. Payment will be released to the seller and out of escrow when both parties are satisfied that the transaction has been carried out correctly. For our escrow services, we Page 4 of 8
