What is SaaS escrow?

SaaS escrow protects your cloud application without requiring you to give up control of it.
You deposit key materials — source code, deployment configurations, infrastructure details, and supporting data — with an independent escrow provider like Software-Escrow.com. We store everything securely and only release it if predefined conditions are met, like insolvency or a failure to maintain the application.
When a client asks for SaaS escrow before signing, you can meet that requirement in minutes — connect your cloud environment once, and we handle deposits, agreements, and verification automatically. You keep full control of your software and get back to building.

You’re already maintaining your product — SaaS escrow adds another layer

Your team is building, shipping, fixing issues, and keeping the product running.
Then SaaS escrow gets added to the process.
Now someone has to keep deposits current, deal with agreement setup, and provide proof that everything is covered and up to date.
feature-you-re-already-maintaining-the-product

All the coverage. None of the overhead.

Your SaaS product is always changing — your escrow should keep up without you having to think about it. Software-Escrow.com keeps your cloud environment in sync automatically, handles the legal setup, and gives your clients the proof they need.
INTEGRATIONS

Your whole cloud stack, synced automatically every day.

Connect AWS, Azure, GCP, GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket once, and your escrow stays current without you touching it. Every deployment and every config change is reflected automatically — you never have to remember to push an update or catch up after a release.

LEGAL AGREEMENTS

We handle the paperwork. You stay focused on the product.

We prepare your SaaS escrow agreement, manage both parties through to signing, and handle any custom terms your client needs. You don't need to understand legal terms or sit through meetings. You review, you sign, and we take it from there.
SECURITY

Your application and everything in it stays completely protected.

Your deposited materials are encrypted with AES-256 in transit and at rest. Not even our team can access them — everything stays locked in a secure vault until a verified release event occurs. You get enterprise-grade protection without having to manage any of it yourself.

ESCROW CERTIFICATES

Show clients their SaaS environment is protected — without the lengthy explanation.

The moment your escrow is active, you get a certificate confirming exactly what's been deposited and when. Hand it over and the 'how do we know we're covered?' conversation ends. Need more than a certificate? We've got that too.
VERIFICATION

Independent confirmation that your deposit can be recovered.

Our verification service checks that your deposited SaaS environment is complete, current, and can be rebuilt if it ever needs to be. Pick the level that matches your client's requirements — from a basic integrity check to a full technical review.

Frequently asked questions

What is SaaS escrow?
SaaS escrow is a legal agreement where a neutral third party — like Software-Escrow.com — securely holds the materials needed to rebuild or restore your cloud application. Source code, deployment configurations, infrastructure scripts, and supporting data are all deposited and kept current through automated daily syncs. If a predefined release event occurs, your client can access those materials to keep their operations running. For developers, it's the fastest way to meet a client's escrow requirement without it becoming a project — connect your cloud environment once, and we handle everything else automatically.
What gets deposited in a SaaS escrow?
Typically: source code, technical documentation, deployment scripts, cloud configuration files, data, and any other materials your client would need to rebuild or operate the application independently, are deposited in a SaaS escrow. With Software-Escrow.com, you connect your repositories and cloud platforms once — we handle the deposits automatically from there.
How do developers keep SaaS escrow up to date?
With Software-Escrow.com, you don't have to keep SaaS escrow up to date. Connect your repositories and cloud platforms once, and our platform syncs your deposits automatically every day. Every time you push code or update your deployment, your escrow reflects it — no manual uploads, no maintenance.
When does SaaS escrow get released?
A SaaS escrow only gets released when a predefined release event occurs — things like vendor insolvency, bankruptcy, significant service downtime, or a material failure to support the application. We review and verify all claims before anything is released. Your application and its materials aren't accessible to anyone unless those specific conditions are met.
Why do clients ask for SaaS escrow?
When a client's business depends on your cloud application, they want assurance that they won't lose access if something happens to your company or service. SaaS escrow gives them a recovery path — without requiring you to hand over control of your application. It's a standard requirement in enterprise SaaS contracts.
What proof does SaaS escrow provide?
Once your escrow is active and your first deposit is in place, you receive an escrow certificate that confirms what's been deposited and when. You can share this with your client as proof that your escrow is live and current. Optional verification services provide additional proof that the deposited materials are complete and recoverable — useful for clients with stricter compliance requirements.

Let’s take care of your software escrow.
