Considering that the plugin was not updated in a long time, have observed that with all the latest updates, if Escrow plugin is enabled it slows down the website, too good that I observed this else my web would be slower and drop in conversions.
Maybe you guys will update it at least once in half of a year?
Thanks.
So I have an existing website that isn`t made with Woocommerce. My question is if Woocommerce can be added to such a website, specifically I would like to setup an Escrow payment system on the website. Is this something that can be accomplished? If not what could be some other ways to add an escrow system to my WordPress website?

At line 441-443 the code is
if (!isset($escrow_transaction_id) or $escrow_transaction_id <= 0) {
return [];
}
The idea is simple: rather than have immediate transfers between users, transfer the funds to an intermediary account (non-user) to hold the funds (visibly) until both users confirm the transaction. This way users could utilize your plugin as a way to show proof of funds (and commitment of said funds) to another user, provided both users choose to click the accept transfer button.
As a more complicated addition, it could also allow partial payments at different intervals (say, 25% up front, and the remaining portion sent in increments, supposing both users accept). That way users could use this to pay for ongoing services or contract work.
I hope this idea strikes your fancy! This would be a service that no other plugins offer.
]]>EG: HIREBEE THEME
I want to give my users 1000 credits when they sign up.
Users can then use these credits to PAY freelancers.
Freelancers can also transfer (or pay) using the credits they receive for jobs.
So, basically, there is no money involved. Just credits. I will give the credits on sign up, and they then spend those credits and can earn additional credits doing jobs for users on the site.
Sort of like a “Local Exchange Trading System”. I asked Hirebee if this was possible, but they just gave the standard answers. I would love to use their theme because of the “projects” and “collaboration” etc, functionality, but don’t want any real-world money to be involved in transactions were users pay each other for completed projects.
Also, as a side note, the Escrow thing for the credits would also be fantastic – so a project is paid 50% upfront on acceptance, and a few days after completion by the project owner unless there’s a dispute.
I hope this makes sense, and *please* if you know of someone or if this plugin can do that with some tweaking, kindly let me know.
Thanks so much
Thanks.
