You found the right counterparty. Now how do you make sure the deal actually closes, and everyone gets exactly what they agreed?

Direct Trade.
Fully Protected. Start to Finish.

Marvinet Direct Trade lets buyers and sellers transact directly with every payment held in escrow, every counterparty independently verified, and every term documented before a single product moves.

• KYB-verified counterparties only
• 100% escrow-protected payments
• System-generated contracts on every deal
• Optional third-party goods inspection

Verified businesses only. 1 category-based fee, paid by the deal originator.

The payment problem

The buyer sends a wire and waits. The seller waits for cleared funds before shipping. Someone always carries the risk, and someone almost always gets burned. Either the buyer pays before verifying goods, or the seller ships before payment clears.

The documentation gap

Terms agreed on a call. Quantities confirmed over email. Specification in a WhatsApp thread. By the time delivery happens, nobody has a tamper-proof record of what was actually agreed, and the dispute has nowhere to land.

The verification gap

Most platforms let any business create a profile and start trading. A professional-looking account with good reviews is not the same as an independently verified company. In cross-border electronics trade, the difference can be six figures.

How Direct Trade works

A complete, protected transaction from first contact to final payment.
