How the Escrow Process Works
Once you and your buyer agree on terms, ELG steps in to manage escrow from start to finish
ELG Escrow Road to Close:
- Agree to Terms
Buyer and seller sign escrow details and terms. - Buyer Sends Funds to ELG
ELG securely holds the funds in escrow until both sides are ready to close. - Seller Transfers Assets
Once funds are confirmed, the seller transfers assets (domain, store, IP, etc.) to the buyer. - Buyer Reviews and Approves Assets
The buyer confirms receipt and accuracy of the transfer. - ELG Releases Funds
Upon mutual approval, ELG releases the closing payment to the seller.
Deal Closed
The acquisition is officially complete. Both sides walk away protected and paid.
Note:
- Domestic wires typically process instantly.
- International wires can take 1–5 business days.
ELG sometimes sends a $100 test wire for new recipients to verify accuracy.
