Buying software licenses, serial keys, or activation codes? Here's how to avoid scams and ensure legitimate access.

Software license transactions are high-risk. Here's how to buy them safely on Escrozon.

Types of Software Licenses

  • Lifetime licenses — One-time payment, permanent access
  • Subscription transfers — Remaining months on a subscription
  • Volume licenses — Multiple seats at a discount
  • OEM licenses — Bundled with hardware (check transferability)
  • Open source commercial licenses — Dual-licensed software

Red Flags

  • Price significantly below retail (likely stolen or fraudulent)
  • Seller can't provide proof of purchase
  • License has already been activated multiple times
  • Seller refuses escrow
  • "Volume license" that's actually a single-user key shared illegally

What to Verify

Before confirming receipt: 1. Activate the software with the provided key 2. Verify it's a legitimate license (not a crack/keygen) 3. Check the license type matches the listing 4. Confirm the number of seats/users 5. Verify transferability (some licenses are non-transferable) 6. Check for any restrictions or expiration

Using Escrow Protection

Escrozon's AI escrow is essential for software license purchases: 1. Initiate escrow — payment held securely 2. Receive license key in the deal chat 3. Activate and verify the software 4. Check all features are unlocked 5. Confirm receipt — funds released If the key doesn't work, is already used, or is fraudulent, don't confirm. Open a dispute immediately.

Important Notes

  • Some software vendors prohibit license transfers — check the ToS
  • OEM licenses typically can't be transferred separately from hardware
  • "Lifetime" licenses may have hidden expiration dates
  • Volume license keys are often shared illegally — verify with the vendor
Escrozon's AI escrow gives you time to verify everything before paying. Don't risk direct payment for software licenses.

How it works

Escrow protection in four steps

Modeled on best-in-class escrow practices — funds never reach the seller until you confirm

1

Buyer pays into escrow

Buyer pays the seller's price + 6% fee via secure online payment. Funds are held by Escrozon — never sent directly to the seller.

2

Seller delivers

Once funded, the seller transfers the account credentials and shares login details in the deal chat.

3

Buyer confirms

Buyer inspects and confirms receipt. The seller's price is released to their wallet. Fee goes to the platform.

4

Dispute? We resolve

Either party can open a dispute. A moderator reviews the chat and evidence, then releases or refunds — all logged.
