Verify funding
Payment state should be tied to ledger activity rather than screenshots, messages or unsupported claims.
Trust & Security
XRPL escrow security starts with verifiable behavior.
Trustless Payments is designed to reduce ambiguity around funding, contract state and settlement while making critical payment activity independently reviewable. Learn how automated XRPL escrow applies defined conditions to release and refund outcomes.

Visible settlement history
Principles
Reduce trust assumptions wherever possible.
Make rules visible
Contract terms, deadlines and valid actions should remain understandable throughout the agreement lifecycle.
Separate identity and payment state
Application identity and ledger transactions are related but distinct parts of the system.
Operational Safety
Users still have responsibilities.
Automation reduces some forms of risk, but it does not eliminate the need to verify addresses, payment instructions and contract terms.
Check destination details
Confirm the destination address, amount, destination tag and memo requirements before sending funds.
Review contract terms
Understand deadlines, review windows, revision rules and settlement behavior before funding an agreement.
Protect wallet credentials
Never share seed phrases, private keys or wallet recovery credentials with Trustless Payments or another participant.
Verify on-chain activity
Where appropriate, independently review the relevant transaction on the XRP Ledger.
