How it works

Every step, spelled out. No small print surprises.

ASiS sits between buyer and seller and holds the money until the parcel is safely in someone's hands. Here's the whole flow.

Selling

Photograph it

Four or five honest photos beat one flattering one. Flag every flaw.

Price it and list it

Free to list, always. Set your asking price — that's the number you receive.

Post it tracked

Print an Evri or InPost label in-app. Tracking feeds escrow automatically.

Get paid

Escrow releases on confirmation or auto-release. Standard payout in 1–2 working days.

Buying

Find the piece

Search, filter and save searches for price-drop alerts.

Pay into escrow

Your money is held by ASiS, not handed straight to the seller.

Check it on arrival

Try it on, inspect it, and confirm receipt if you're happy.

Or raise a dispute

Not as described? Open a dispute within 5 days of delivery.

Escrow timeline

Where the money is, minute by minute.

Day 0

Day 0–2

Delivery

+3 days

Released

Auto-release if no dispute; instant if buyer confirms.

Your money moves in three days. Your protection lasts five. If a dispute is raised on day four or five, ASiS covers the refund itself.

Disputes

Evidence first, decisions second.

1. Raise it

Buyers have 5 days from delivery to open a dispute. Escrow stays frozen the moment one is raised.

2. Both sides submit

Buyer and seller each upload photo evidence and a short description. No refund decision happens before both have had their say.

3. We decide

Our UK team reviews the evidence against the listing. Whoever loses the dispute covers return shipping.
