How The Escrow Payment Flow Works
SealStream ensures every transaction is secure, transparent, and efficient.
-
Buyer Sends Funds
Payment is made to an independent Escrow Account (via Transpact), not to SealStream or the OEM.
-
OEM Ships Goods
Once funds are verified in escrow, the OEM dispatches the order directly to the buyer.
-
Funds Are Released
When all parties confirm delivery and conditions are met, Transpact releases payment to the OEM.

SealStream Facilitates, Not Controls
We oversee and streamline the process, but never hold or access funds. Your trust and protection come first.
Credit accounts may be offered to qualifying clients following approval by both SealStream and the original equipment manufacturer (OEM).
Why SealStream Uses an Escrow Account Model - Neither party may withdraw funds without the other's consent.
SealStream is not just a parts distributor. We are a specialist platform and consultancy designed to modernize the global sealing supply chain. Our approach removes friction, reduces costs, and builds trust between buyers and OEMs.
To achieve this, we utilise an escrow account model (powered by Transpact), enabling: - Direct delivery from OEMs, eliminating double-shipping. Third-party payment security, ensuring both buyer and supplier protection
This structure reflects our unique role:
- As a platform, we connect, verify, and streamline transactions
- As a consultancy, we provide technical support, expert sourcing, and supply chain reliability
We’re not just another middleman. We’re an enabler, and the escrow model proves it.
For Buyers: Confidence With Reduced Risk
SealStream gives you access to OEM-grade products without the risks of prepayment or unknown suppliers.
How it works:
- Your payment is held in a Transpact escrow account, not paid directly to SealStream or the OEM.
- The OEM ships your order directly to you.
- Once delivery is confirmed, payment is released to the OEM by you.
Why it works for you:
No risk of non-delivery, funds are only released, by you, once goods arrive
- Full visibility of the transaction and product movement
- Access to top-tier OEM supply, backed by SealStream’s technical expertise
- You get the benefit of a distributor without the markup or delays
- Transparency, you can see who the OEM is, which adds clarity and trust to the transaction
For OEMs: Fulfilment Without Credit Exposure (unless credit terms pre-agreed)
SealStream enables OEMs to expand their customer base with no financing risk and no added overhead.
How it works:
- SealStream acts as your sales and advisory layer, bringing pre-qualified buyers
- Buyer payments are secured in a Transpact escrow account, visible to you
- You ship direct to the customer On delivery confirmation, funds are released to you
Why it works for you:
- No receivables or credit control required, unless credit terms are pre-agreed
- No need to manage end-user support, we handle everything from sales to technical guidance
- You keep operational control while gaining new revenue with zero friction
The buyer’s creditworthiness 1 determines the terms. If credit is extended, it’s between you and the buyer, not via an intermediary. This removes a layer of financial risk typically associated with distributor models.
SealStream offers a transparent, low-risk way to grow — with the confidence of secured payments and high quality buyer engagement.
Platform Protection & Integrity
To protect the value SealStream creates, we operate with clear platform protocols: - OEMs sign non circumvention agreements, preventing them from bypassing SealStream to engage buyers directly. - We maintain records of all introductions and transactions to ensure transparency and accountability. - Buyers stay loyal because of the trust account security, expert support, and streamlined service SealStream provides — benefits they don’t get dealing directly. - OEMs benefit more by working through SealStream than attempting to replicate the buyer engagement process themselves.
Our model creates alignment, trust, and long-term collaboration — not competition between platform and participants.
