Many customers, one deposit.
Cover many of your customers under a single managed deposit and one agreement framework, so you answer every buyer asking for escrow without re-depositing for each.
One deposit, many customers.
Instead of a separate deposit per customer, one managed deposit covers your whole base, with each beneficiary named under the framework.
For a vendor whose enterprise customers keep asking for escrow, this is the default structure: deposit once, add beneficiaries as you sign them, and manage the base from one place instead of a folder of contracts.
How it scales.
Set the structure up once, then grow into it as your customer base grows.
Every beneficiary, named.
Each customer is named as a beneficiary under the same framework and the same managed deposit. One structure, a clear roster, and no separate deposit to maintain for each customer you sign.
Two vaults. One in a granite mountain.
Deposits are held in two physical, US-based vaults, one inside a granite mountain, monitored around the clock. The provider has to satisfy the people who approve the deal, and EscrowTech is the one their legal teams already recognize.
Multi-beneficiary escrow, answered.
The questions vendors covering many customers ask most often.
What is a multi-beneficiary software escrow?
A multi-beneficiary software escrow is one escrow arrangement that covers many of a vendor's customers at once. A single managed deposit sits with EscrowTech as a neutral third party, and each customer is named as a beneficiary under the same framework, rather than each one setting up its own separate deposit.
How does one deposit cover many customers?
The vendor keeps one current deposit of the source code and the materials needed to rebuild and run the software. Every named beneficiary draws on that same deposit under the agreement, so you maintain one deposit instead of re-depositing the same materials for each customer.
What is the difference between multi-beneficiary and single-beneficiary escrow?
A single-beneficiary escrow protects one customer under one agreement and one deposit. A multi-beneficiary escrow covers many customers under one managed deposit and framework, so a vendor answering the same escrow request from many buyers does not stand up a separate arrangement each time.
How do I add a new beneficiary to an existing agreement?
When you sign a new customer, they are added as a named beneficiary to the existing framework and the deposit that is already in place. There is no new deposit to build, which is why answering the next buyer who asks for escrow is quick.
Are all beneficiaries covered by the same release conditions?
Typically yes: the framework sets the release conditions that apply across the named beneficiaries, so the triggers are consistent. Where a specific customer negotiates different terms, that can be reflected for that beneficiary while the shared deposit stays the same.
Who drafts and manages a multi-beneficiary escrow?
EscrowTech's in-house counsel drafts the escrow agreement and stays neutral between the parties; it drafts the escrow arrangement, not the underlying commercial contracts. The deposit, the beneficiaries, and any verification are then managed in one place through RealTime Escrow.
Is the shared deposit verified?
Verification is available, matched to the risk, from confirming what is in the deposit up to a full build and run. It is not automatic on every deposit, and the top of the ladder is never standard or included by default. Because one deposit covers many beneficiaries, verifying it once gives every named customer the same evidence.
How is a multi-beneficiary escrow priced as customers are added?
Pricing starts at a base for the managed deposit and framework and is custom-priced to your structure, including how many beneficiaries you cover and how far you verify. Adding a beneficiary to an existing deposit costs less than standing up a separate escrow for each customer.
Priced to your structure.
Starting at $1,390 a year, custom-priced to your structure, how many customers you cover, and how far you verify. Adding a beneficiary to an existing deposit costs less than a separate escrow for each customer. See pricing →
