What is continuity escrow?
Continuity escrow keeps the services your software depends on running — so you can guarantee your client 100% uptime even if something goes wrong on your end.
Your application runs on hosting providers, infrastructure platforms, and third-party services. All of them need ongoing payments to stay active. If a payment fails or gets disrupted, a service goes down — and your client's software goes with it.
A continuity escrow agreement means the escrow agent, like Software-Escrow.com, can step in to cover those payments if that ever happens. You store service credentials securely so access is never lost. The services stay live, your client stays running, and you don't have to be the one managing it.
It gives you have a straightforward answer to a requirement that sounds a lot more complicated than it needs to be.
Your software depends on services you don't control — and your client knows it
Your hosting runs somewhere. Your payments process through something. Your infrastructure leans on platforms you didn't build.
All of it needs to keep running — and your client wants proof that it will.
Now you're accountable for a chain of dependencies that has nothing to do with your code.
Service Credentials
Deposit your credentials once. We keep them safe.
Hand over the login details, access tokens, and API keys for your critical services once — hosting, infrastructure, third-party platforms. We store everything with AES-256/512 encryption and keep it current. If something ever triggers, we have what we need without bothering you at the worst possible moment.
Payment Coverage
We cover payments so your services don't go dark.
The escrow agreement defines exactly how we step in if a payment gets disrupted. Before a missed bill takes a service offline, we cover it — giving you time to sort out the underlying issue without your software going down in the meantime.
Legal Agreements
We write the agreement. You review and sign — that's it.
Continuity agreements need to cover payment triggers, service responsibilities, and what happens across multiple parties if something goes wrong. That's our job, not yours. We prepare everything, you check it over, and we handle the rest.
Security
Your credentials are locked down. No one gets in without a reason.
Everything you deposit is encrypted with AES-256 in transit and at rest. Multi-factor authentication protects every sensitive role and detailed logs record every access attempt. Your hosting credentials and service tokens are some of the most sensitive data your business has — we treat them that way.
VERIFICATION
Show your client the coverage is real, not just promised.
Our verification service checks that your stored credentials are valid, current, and ready to activate. Pick the level your client needs — from a basic check to a full expert review. Every level comes with a certificate you can hand over and move on.
