GuardianDeal Escrow

Pricing

One fee. Charged once. On completion.

No subscription, no listing fee, and nothing to pay if a trade is canceled before it funds.

2.5% + $0.30 per completed trade

Charged on completion

Cancel before funding and there is nothing to pay. A refunded dispute returns the buyer's money in full, fee included.

Whoever you agree

The buyer pays by default, but you can move it to the seller or split it evenly when you open the trade.

Capped per trade

The fee never exceeds $250.00, so a large trade is not penalised for being large.

What it actually costs

Calculated by the same code that charges you, so the published figure can never drift from the real one.
