How Escrow Protects Freelancers and Clients
Career
The number one fear for freelancers is simple: not getting paid. And the number one fear for clients? Paying for work that never gets delivered.
Escrow solves both problems. Here is how it works on UnityFreak.
What Is Escrow?
Escrow is a financial arrangement where a third party holds funds on behalf of two parties in a transaction. The money is released only when agreed-upon conditions are met.
How It Works on UnityFreak
- Contract Created — client and freelancer agree on scope, timeline, and milestones
- Funds Deposited — client deposits payment into escrow before work begins
- Work Delivered — freelancer completes milestone and submits for review
- Review and Release — client approves, funds are released immediately
- Dispute Resolution — if needed, our team reviews evidence and decides fairly
On UnityFreak, escrow is built into every contract at no additional cost. It is part of the 10% platform fee.
