Swaptome.com is an online trading service for buying and selling cryptocurrency. Swaptome.com helps to resolve disputes if such should arise between buyers and sellers. Swaptome.com doesn’t become a party to any trade or transaction concluded by its users. Our users may be natural persons or legal entities.

Description of Services

Swaptome.com is a peer-to-peer platform service that enables its users to buy and sell digital currency. The Site allows buyers and sellers to buy and sell the blockchain-based currency. Swaptome.com also offers hosted digital wallet services. Our registered users are able to post offers to either buy or sell digital currency via payment methods of their choice. The creator of the offer is responsible for listing terms of the trade. Once an offer is selected by another user, digital currency is held in our escrow service from the party that is selling it. The digital currency is released from escrow to the buyer by the seller once the buyer has completed the terms of the trade. The escrow is released back to the seller if the buyer chooses to cancel the trade. The seller may not cancel the trade at any point. The seller only has the option to release the digital currency from escrow to the buyer. This is for the security purposes of the buyer. Should a seller need to cancel the trade due to a buyer not following the terms of the trade, they must start a dispute and provide a reason for doing so. Swaptome.com also provides an online digital asset trading platform (crypto to crypto) for products commonly known as cryptographic currency. Swaptome.com does not provide fiat trading capabilities on its platform and as such is not subjected to the stringent regulations that come with it. Swaptome.com functions as a trading platform provider and is not a buyer or seller in trades made between traders. Swaptome.com is also not a market maker.
