Agreements for every situation

There’s no one-size fits all when it comes to escrow, so we have starting points for a range of scenarios where technology escrow is applied. Download samples here.

Customizable Release Conditions

It’s very important to structure the release conditions so that they don’t delay the release to the beneficiary and at the same time still also protect the interests of the depositor.
