Your purchase request
You are asking to buy the channel at the displayed price. The seller is not committed until they accept your request. Any applicable escrow fee will be calculated and shown before payment.
Escrow protection
The buyer funds the transaction through Social Bidz. Funds remain protected in escrow while the agreed transfer and verification steps are completed, and are released only under the applicable escrow workflow.
Information and verification
Listing details and channel metrics are supplied by the seller. Social Bidz does not independently guarantee every claim. Ask the escrow team to verify any specific ownership, analytics, monetization, engagement, or account information before the transaction is completed.
Keep communication on Social Bidz
Keep payment, transfer instructions, evidence, and deal communication inside Social Bidz. Off-platform activity may not be available as evidence and can limit the escrow team's ability to assist with a dispute.
Disputes and prohibited activity
Report a problem before completion so the escrow team can review the available evidence. Fraud, fake or manipulated metrics, unlawful assets, attempts to bypass escrow, and misleading information are prohibited.
After the transaction is completed
Social Bidz's escrow responsibility ends when the transaction is completed and funds are released. Social Bidz cannot guarantee the digital asset after completion, including recovery through third-party support, platform enforcement, policy changes, or losses connected to fake or artificially boosted engagement. Verified sellers, ratings, and reviews reduce risk but are not a guarantee.

The buyer pays the channel price plus a 1.5-7% service fee ($2 minimum), with lower rates on higher-value deals.
