Riyeke Ustadiyanto (founder of iPayMu.com) has announced in the Station Community Facebook Group and in the #startuplokal mailing list about the latest iPayMu feature called EscrowMu. Riyeke explained that EscrowMu is escrow professional software issued by iPayMu which allows both parties (seller and buyer) to be involved in the sale without any risk.

“EscrowMu can be owned by anyone who is interested to organize joint account or escrow. For buyers, they can be assured receiving 100% good condition of goods from the seller and the seller will be protected from online scams. If you run a webhosting business, domain appraisal service or website domain registration, we can add value to the site by offering customers an online escrow service”, explained Riyeke  in our e-mail interview.

Riyeke also explained that EscrowMu (escrow premium iPayMu) feature was made to be more flexible and users can set the percentage amount of transactions that are set by the escrow owner. In addition EscrowMu merchant can put their own label branding.

Some benefits from this new feature consist of EscrowMu member merchant benefit and EscrowMu admin merchant benefit. Details are as follows:
