What you are actually promised
Stated once, enforced by the ledger.
Paid from money already held
Escrow is funded before the session is assigned.
You keep 85 percent
One fee, taken out of the total. No listing fee, no payout fee.
Every session is logged
The delivery carries the device and a timestamped log, which protects you as much as the buyer.

Money without mystery
Every cent has a state.
Acceptance releases 85 percent of the total into your balance and records 15 percent to the platform.

Escrow is funded before work starts and released only on acceptance. A dispute can refund, release, or split the exact total without creating or losing cents.
