Money Waits on Proof

  • • Funds sit in escrow the moment the buyer pays
  • • Release only fires after delivery is confirmed
  • • A disputed delivery holds funds instead of releasing them

Milestones Are Visible

  • • Produced, shipped, and delivered are tracked as discrete steps
  • • FX conversion and reconciliation close the settlement loop
  • • Every party sees the same milestone state
