Protected Pay Fees
Each Protected Pay transaction includes a small service fee that is clearly displayed to the Payor before confirming the payment.
This fee covers the use of LiquidTrust’s Micro Escrow™ protection, which securely holds funds until all agreed conditions are met.
How Payor Fees Are Determined
Protected Pay fees are calculated as a percentage of the total value held in escrow.
The current standard rate is 1% of the transaction amount, with a minimum fee of $10 USD.

Why This Matters
