Escrow + delivery orchestration infrastructure

Institutional trust rails for African digital trade.

A neutral operations layer that lets marketplaces, banks, couriers, insurers and enterprise platforms coordinate escrow states, delivery events, settlement releases, refunds, disputes and audit evidence through one governed API fabric.

What the platform provides

Core services marketplaces and institutions can consume instead of rebuilding trust logic.

Escrow orchestration

Create, hold, confirm, release, refund or dispute transactions with deterministic state transitions and configurable maker-checker controls.

Delivery trust loop

Courier and delivery platforms submit collection, transit, delivery, return and conflict events that determine escrow settlement outcomes.

Partner API exchange

Connect banks, insurers, delivery operators and platforms through mapped API clients, HMAC-signed webhooks and institutional routing rules.

Reconciliation layer

Compare system-generated holds, releases, refunds and fees against institution-side statements and account queries.

Dispute operations

Freeze releases, capture evidence, route review decisions, and keep settlement actions transparent to authorised operators.

Audit and observability

Track external requests, webhooks, state changes, operator activity, response codes, idempotency keys and proof ledger hashes.

Operational flow

From buyer confidence to final settlement, every step has an auditable event.

1

Order registered

Marketplace or institution creates the escrow instruction and required delivery linkage.

2

Funds held

Connected institution confirms the hold, fees, settlement recipient and release conditions.

3

Courier event stream

Delivery platform reports pickup, in-transit, delivered, failed, returned or disputed status.

4

Release, refund or resolve

The escrow state machine triggers settlement, refund, return handling or dispute workflow.

Institution integration

Built for many partners, not one hard-coded provider.

Configure institution accounts, webhook URLs, API client rights, connector mappings, fee schedules and reconciliation endpoints from the platform console.

Governance and security

Readable controls for sensitive financial operations.

Signed callbacks

Webhook verification, idempotency and replay protection reduce false settlement triggers.

Role isolation

Operational, audit, connector and settings privileges are separated for accountable administration.

Evidence-first disputes

Every manual release, refund and override can retain the reason, actor, timestamp and trace metadata.

Platform console

Operate trust flows from one controlled dashboard.

Monitor transactions, delivery workflow, banks and institutions, earnings, reconciliation, disputes, API clients, audit proof and focused traces from the same administrative surface.
