How Does 217G Escrow Work?

217G escrow works like this: payment is held until the buyer confirms full control of the account, then it is released to the seller. The buyer does not pay the seller directly, and the seller does not get paid on a promise. The money moves only after the transfer is verified complete — that order is the whole protection.

First, buyer and seller agree the terms: which account, what inventory, and what counts as a complete transfer. Second, the buyer deposits payment, and it is held — not sent to the seller. Third, the transfer happens, including the password, the original email, the phone number, and every linked login, with the seller's sessions ended. Fourth, the buyer verifies control live, inside the game and in the account settings. Fifth, once the buyer confirms full control, payment is released to the seller.

Full control is the key detail, and it is stricter than most buyers expect. A password alone is not full control. Full control means the buyer can log in, change credentials, and recover the account themselves — because the original email, phone, and linked logins have all moved to them. If any channel still belongs to the seller, the transfer is not complete, and payment should not release yet.

Account deals fail when the order is wrong. Paying first risks theft; transferring first risks non-payment. Escrow fixes the timing by making verification come before payment. That is why trust is the brand pillar here: the process does not ask either side to trust the other person's promises — it asks both sides to verify, step by step, before money moves. Any seller who resists verification is resisting the protection itself.
