Yes! TrustProtect fully supports the UK market. Payments are processed via Stripe in GBP. The platform is available in English with UK-specific features.
PayPal doesn't hold funds in escrow. With TrustProtect, the payment is blocked until the buyer explicitly approves. This gives true buyer protection for peer-to-peer transactions where PayPal's policies often fall short.
Anything: cars, electronics, furniture, freelance work, deposits, luxury items, services. Any transaction where you're exchanging money with someone and want protection.
Buyer protection fees: 5.9% + £1 (up to £1,000), 3.9% + £1 (£1,000-£5,000), 2.9% (over £5,000). The seller pays nothing — they receive 100% of the agreed amount.
From minutes (in-person handoff) to a few days (postal delivery). Once the buyer approves, the seller is paid within minutes via automatic bank transfer.
