Payment methods

What is SafePay?
SafePay is Guru.com's mandatory secure payment system. Our system safeguards the buyer's sensitive payment information and facilitates international transactions. Employers can issue payments through SafePay by Credit Card, E-check, Check, PayPal, Wire Transfer or SafePay Account funds.

What is SafePay Escrow?
SafePay Escrow not only safeguards the buyer's sensitive payment information, but also guarantees that transactions are risk-free. The payment is kept in a neutral Escrow Account until the project is completed and the Employer is satisfied with the work ordered. Employers using SafePay Escrow have full access to Guru.com's Mediation and Arbitration services, should a dispute arise over the escrowed funds.

(Employer deposits the funds in a neutral account before the work started and kept till the work is completed.)
