SecureDeal — escrow protection for international deals, inside Microsoft Word

SecureDeal is a Word add-in that turns a contract into a protected deal: the buyer's money is held on a partner bank's escrow account and released to the seller only after the agreed documents are checked. Your Microsoft purchase is confirmed in the card on the right.

What SecureDeal does

Buyers and sellers in different countries rarely trust each other with a full prepayment. SecureDeal removes that risk: the buyer funds the deal, a partner bank holds the money, the seller ships and uploads evidence, and the payout happens only when the buyer confirms each stage. Everything — terms, milestones, documents, disputes and invoices — lives in one deal record you open from the Word ribbon.

Key features

Escrow with partner banks

Funds are held on a bank transit account in the deal currency, not by SecureDeal. The bank's escrow fee is shown up front when you create the deal.

Payment milestones and evidence

Split the deal into stages with a percentage each. For every stage define the documents required before payout — invoices, certificates, transport records, inspection reports.

Deal from the contract in Word

Open the contract, and the add-in imports parties, bank details, amount and delivery terms. AI-assisted extraction fills the form; you only confirm.

Seller cabinet in the browser

The seller gets an email invitation, reviews the terms, accepts the deal, uploads documents and tracks payouts — no Word or installation needed.

Disputes and refunds

If the evidence does not match the terms, the buyer rejects it and the funds stay protected. Open a dispute or refund the milestone — nothing moves without a decision.

Invoices, notifications and audit trail

Invoices in 17 languages as PDF or PNG, email notifications for every step, and a full history of who did what and when — ready for accounting and compliance.

How a protected deal works

Buyer and seller actions stay separated. Money moves only after the agreed evidence has been reviewed.

  1. The buyer creates the deal

    Choose the partner bank, amount and currency, define milestones and the documents required for each stage.

  2. The seller accepts the terms

    The seller reviews the schedule and document requirements in the cabinet and accepts the escrow deal.

  3. The buyer funds escrow

    Transfer the amount to the bank's escrow account using the details and payment reference shown in the deal.

  4. The seller completes a milestone

    Perform the work, then upload the invoices, certificates or transport records required for the stage.

  5. The buyer reviews the evidence

    Accept the documents when the conditions are met, or open a dispute so the funds remain protected.

  6. The payout is released

    Once the stage is confirmed, the milestone amount goes to the seller and is recorded in the deal history.

What to do next

SecureDeal runs inside Microsoft Word. Three steps and your first protected deal is ready.

  1. Install SecureDeal in Word

    In Word choose Home → Add-ins → search “SecureDeal” → Add. It appears on the Home ribbon. Works in Word for Windows, Mac and the web.

  2. Sign in with the same Microsoft account

    Open SecureDeal from the ribbon and choose Sign in with Microsoft. Use the account you purchased with — the plan is already attached to it.

  3. Create your first protected deal

    Open a contract, import the parties and amount, choose a partner bank and payment milestones. The seller receives an invitation by email.

Billing and account questions

How am I billed?

Microsoft charges the subscription monthly to the payment method in your Microsoft account. You will not receive a separate invoice from SecureDeal for the subscription. Platform fees on deals are shown in each deal and in the invoice for that deal.

Can I change the plan?

Yes. Open the subscription in the Microsoft 365 admin center or Azure portal and pick another plan. The new fee applies to deals created after the change; SecureDeal updates automatically.

How do I cancel?

Cancel the subscription in your Microsoft account. Existing deals continue until they are completed or refunded; your account moves to the Pay-as-you-go plan, and your data stays available.

Can my colleagues use it?

The plan is attached to the account that bought it. Team seats are available on Business and Enterprise — contact us to add colleagues to the same plan.
