A safer way to send earnest money.

Eligible buyers can be routed to a secure payment-link style experience for earnest money deposits instead of relying on paper checks, loose email instructions, or unclear delivery timing.

Secure earnest money payment support

01

Digital payment convenience should not come at the cost of escrow discipline.

CertifID’s Digital Payments workflow is built for real estate teams that need buyer convenience, payment status visibility, and fraud protection while still respecting title-company operating policies and Indiana transaction requirements.

Buyer experience

Payment-link style flow

Buyers get a cleaner path for paying earnest money without trying to interpret wiring instructions inside a cluttered email chain.

File control

Metadata stays with the file

Buyer and payment details can remain tied to the correct transaction, reducing misapplied funds and follow-up confusion.

Compliance

Flexible delivery options

ACH, Instant, and Wire delivery options may be available depending on Keystone’s policy, transaction needs, and Indiana requirements.

Timeline

Clear delivery visibility

Payment status and activity updates help closing teams avoid the “did funds arrive?” scramble.

Security

Less reliance on email

The payment experience reduces the need to send sensitive instructions or account details through ordinary email.

Protection

Eligible payment coverage

CertifID materials describe first-party insurance coverage for eligible payments and wires verified through its software.
