Questions, answered
Can I get a refund if the account is banned after purchase?
Yes, if the account is banned within the escrow period you can open a dispute and 217G will refund your payment, provided you have evidence of the ban.
Do I need to provide my own phone number to complete the transfer?
No, 217G handles the account handover through the in‑game login details; you never have to share your personal phone number with the seller.
Is it safe to buy accounts that already own a Royale Pass or skins?
Accounts with a Royale Pass or skins are listed on 217G like any other; just verify those items match the listing before releasing escrow.
