Pros and Cons
Pros
- The only vendor of its kind here that publishes its full fee schedule, so the cost is known before anyone commits
- Licensed trust accounts and a track record running since 1999
- Milestone transactions support staged releases, which fits earnout-shaped and transition-period deals
Cons
- Consumer-marketplace DNA: the supported transaction types are domains, vehicles, merchandise, and services rather than an M&A-specific product
- A lawyer-run closing with a lender will use the attorney's or title company's escrow, so this mostly serves deals without one
- Card or PayPal funding adds 3.05%, which is real money at deal sizes
