Algeria's digital economy is growing at an unprecedented rate. With more transactions moving online, the need for a trusted intermediary has never been greater. This is where escrow services come in — and why Thiqaty was built from the ground up to serve the Algerian market.
An escrow service acts as a neutral third party that holds funds during a transaction. The buyer deposits money into the escrow account, the seller delivers the goods or services, and once both parties confirm the transaction is complete, the funds are released. If something goes wrong, the escrow service mediates.
What makes Thiqaty different from international escrow services is our deep integration with Algeria's payment infrastructure. We support CIB, Edahabia, BaridiMob, and CCP — the payment methods Algerians actually use. No need for international credit cards or foreign currency conversions.
Our cryptographic ledger records every transaction with immutable precision. Every fund movement, every milestone completion, every dispute resolution is etched into the architectural ledger. This transparency is what builds trust between strangers transacting online.
For buyers, Thiqaty eliminates the fear of sending money to an unknown seller. Your funds are locked in escrow until you confirm delivery. For sellers, it eliminates the fear of delivering goods without payment — they can see the funds are locked before they ship.
The Thiqaty escrow process follows four simple steps: Agreement, where both parties define terms; Escrow, where funds are locked; Delivery, where goods or services are provided; and Payout, where funds are released to the seller upon buyer confirmation.
We've processed thousands of transactions since launch, with a 99.8% success rate and a median dispute resolution time of under 48 hours. Our team of Algerian compliance experts ensures every transaction meets local regulatory requirements.
