Sophisticated security for buyers
You're covered
When transactions need only a login and password, you don’t expose bank details or card numbers. It’s an added layer of protection for your financial information.
We never close
We monitor transactions 24/7. So rest easy — even when you let your guard down, we won’t.
Superior technology
We build and invest in some of the finest protection available. Next-level encryption keeps transactions heavily guarded from start to finish.
Fraud prevention
Contact us if anything seems suspicious so we can help you prevent fraudulent transactions. Remember: we’ll never ask for sensitive information in an email.
Dispute resolution
If there’s a problem with a transaction, we’ll put a hold on the funds until the issue is resolved. We investigate and stay involved every step of the way.
Global transactions
Buy or sell around the globe. We process and convert 25 currencies from 202 countries to make sending, spending, and selling simple and secure.
Purchase Protection
We protect you from checkout to delivery and use the latest anti-fraud technology to help spot problems before they happen. And if something goes wrong with an order, we’ll investigate.
