Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026

Transpact provides conditional-payment escrow for individuals, small businesses, and online platforms. Buyer funds are held in segregated, ring-fenced client accounts and released when agreed transaction conditions are met, or after a referee resolves a dispute. The service is operated by Anpa Forward Ltd, a UK private limited company regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority, and supports web and API access. Its bank-based model suits transactions where participants want a defined release process rather than an ordinary direct payment.

Pricing is structured as a one-time flat fee per party, with no percentage-based transaction fee. GBP transactions cost £2.99, while EUR transactions cost €3.49. USD transactions cost $9.99 and include a payment fee subtracted from USD payments. GBP payments use the Faster Payments Service, and euro payments use SEPA. The published plans are straightforward for buyers comparing costs by currency, although the pricing is tied to individual transactions rather than a free or subscription tier.

For platform and marketplace use, Transpact offers a SOAP-based escrow API and real-time partner webhook notifications. Release authorization comes from transaction participants, while formal arbitration and referee-led dispute resolution provide a defined route when conditions are contested. Same-day payout timing and bank payment methods make it a practical fit for low-cost conditional payments. Choose Transpact when fixed fees, segregated accounts, bank rails, and programmable notifications matter. Choose a domain-focused alternative when the workflow needs dedicated coordination for domain ownership or transfer processes.
