How Sinnapi Escrow works
01 · You pay Sinnapi

Your full payment is held securely in escrow — the vendor does not receive it yet.

02 · We hold it safely

Funds stay protected while your vendor delivers the service you agreed on.

03 · Released on confirmation

Once you confirm the service was delivered as promised, we settle with the vendor.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to understand how Sinnapi works — for clients and vendors alike. Still have a question? Get in touch.

No. Browsing vendors, viewing portfolios, and searching by category or region is completely free. You only need an account when you want to chat, request a quotation, or make a booking.

Every vendor goes through an approval workflow before they appear publicly — application review, due-diligence checks, and a signed MOU. Providers who do not pass are never listed.

Escrow lets you pay Sinnapi instead of the vendor up front. We hold the full amount securely and only release it once you confirm the service was delivered as promised — protecting you from no-shows and disputes.

Yes. You can always choose to pay a vendor directly. Escrow is simply there for extra peace of mind, especially with vendors you are working with for the first time.

After you apply, we review your details and complete due diligence before you sign the vendor MOU. Once approved, you get a 30-day free trial, after which you choose a Starter, Professional, or Elite subscription.

Absolutely. Clients and professional event planners can run multiple events at once, tracking bookings, messages, and payments for each from a single dashboard.
