Buyer protection

How the payment hold, confirmation and plan insurance keep your money safe.

Buyer protection is built into every order — you don’t have to opt in.

How it protects you

  • Your payment is held by the platform, not sent straight to the seller.
  • It’s released only when you Confirm Delivery (or after the 24-hour auto-confirm).
  • If something’s wrong, you can cancel or open a money dispute before releasing funds.

Extra coverage with a plan

Plans add purchase insurance on top — 90 days on PLUS, 365 days on PRO, unlimited on MAX — plus faster support. See Plans & insurance.

The one thing that ends protection early is confirming delivery, so only confirm when you’re satisfied.
