Takers uses a secure escrow system to protect both Posters and Takers on every job.
In simple terms, the money is held safely until the work is done and approved.
How escrow works
-
A Poster accepts an offer
When a Poster chooses a Taker, the agreed amount is paid upfront and held securely. -
Funds are held safely
The money isn’t sent immediately. It’s held by our payment partner while the work is ongoing. -
The Taker completes the task
Once the work is done, the Taker marks the Take as completed. -
The Poster reviews the work
The Poster can approve the work or request a revision. -
Payment is released
Once approved or after auto-approval, the money is released to the Taker’s wallet.
Why escrow matters
-
Posters don’t pay for incomplete work
-
Takers don’t risk doing work without getting paid
-
Every transaction is secure and traceable
Important rules
-
Always make and receive payments inside the Takers app
-
Never send or accept payments outside the platform
-
Payment is only released after approval or auto-approval
Auto-approval
If the Poster doesn’t respond after a Take is marked as completed, the system will automatically release payment after a set time.
This prevents unnecessary delays and ensures Takers are paid on time.
Tip
Escrow keeps things fair for both sides. As long as you keep everything inside the app, you’re protected.
