Accept.io is a sharing economy
and freelancing marketplace

You can trade just about anything in the Accept Marketplace: Sell your skills/talents or things you no longer want in exchange for cryptocurrency, goods, services, or any combination of the three. All transactions are protected by smart contracts, native escrow in a secure blockchain, and a novel dispute resolution mechanism.

Accept.io takes the best aspects of online marketplaces like eBay and Craigslist and freelancing marketplaces like Upwork, and adds blockchain technology to make trading safer and more cost-effective for all parties Accept users can trade securely, privately, and anonymously in the Accept global marketplace – or locally in one of the many Accept regional marketplaces – and save avoid paying high online marketplace fees of 10-20%. Plus, the entire marketplace is self-regulated and open-source, which means we can offer users incentivizes (bonus cryptocurrency) to help maintain and improve the platform.

With free non-monetary transactions and a low 2.5% fee on trades involving cryptocurrency, Accept.io is building the sharing economy for the masses.

Free
Cashless Trades

In true sharing economy fashion, you can trade for the things you want/need without spending your hard-earned cash. There are no fees unless money changes hands. Sellers pay a low 2.5% fee when receiving payment in cryptocurrency.

Secured by
Smart Contracts

AcceptPay protects buyers and sellers from fraud while maintaining full privacy and protecting user data. Sellers set the terms of the trade (shipping, product/service quality, returns/refunds, etc.) using smart contracts and native escrow ensures nobody gets paid until the terms are met.

Governed by
Un-Biased Arbitration

All disputes are resolved by the Star Chamber – an accredited pool of Accept tasked with reviewing dispute information and voting on the correct course of action. This prevents any central authority from having control over the marketplace.

How it works

The 2019 launch of the Accept.io global marketplace will introduce the Fulcrum (FULC) token to global users

Benefits

Reasons to Join Accept.IO

Secure (and Free) Peer-to-Peer Trades

Trade safely without an intermediary. Accept.io cuts out the middleman and lets you trade with other users worldwide, for free.

Trustless Transactions in a Self-Regulating Marketplace

Smart contracts, native escrow, and our user-led arbitration committee reduce digital transaction risks.

Nearly Instantaneous Settlements

The top online marketplaces hold transacted funds for 3-5 (or more) business days. But in Accept.io, as soon as both parties agree to close a contract, any funds in escrow appear in the seller's Fulcrum wallet almost right away.

A Low 2.5% Transaction Fee

The decentralized, open-source nature of Accept.io keeps transaction fees far below those charged by competing marketplaces (10-20% is common).

A Global Platform Anyone Can Join

Anyone with an internet connection can trade in Accept Marketplaces. There's no need to send us your bank account information or government ID.

Rewards for Active Users with Good Reputations

Earn bonus Fulcrum cryptocurrency for helping Accept.io grow. Get paid to take on coding challenges, help resolve disputes, refer your friends, and even start your own local marketplace.

Introducing the Self-Regulating Marketplace

The Fulcrum (FULC) token* combined with AcceptPay smart contracts let Accept Marketplace users carry out secure, trustless transactions. Disputes are handled by an arbitration team of up to 12 Accept users (called a Star Council) picked randomly from a pool of accredited users (the Star Chamber).

Sarah has a sizeable cryptocurrency portfolio. She wants to start spending her fortune on real things that will actually improve her standard of living, but doesn't see many ways to do that.

She learns about Accept.io and signs up to hire a local landscaper with a 5-star reputation to improve her backyard. She and the landscaper create a detailed smart contract to lay out the scope of work, and she pays him in cryptocurrency once the job is done – saving hundreds of dollars in banking and foreign exchange fees.

Craig is an unemployed artist living in various temporary accommodations. Because he doesn’t have a permanent address, he’s finding it very difficult to use his talents and secure full- or even part-time employment.

He hears about Accept.io and visits his local library to use the internet and create a new account. He scans samples of his art to his profile page and in no time picks up a commission from an Accept.io user based in Sydney, Australia. He completes the work and gets paid in FULC, which is stored securely in his digital wallet.

Stefy is a mechanic who loves to race motorcycles on weekends. She works full-time at a local car dealership but doesn't take home enough to be able to afford the kind of bike she really wants to ride.

Browsing through motorcycle listings on Accept.io, she finds her dream bike (a Ducati 749R) on an Accept Marketplace in Norway. It turns out the bike needs some mechanical work, but it’s nothing she can’t handle. So she contacts the seller and arranges a complex trade involving the Ducati 900ss she currently rides and some premium leather biking gear. Stefy lands her dream bike without spending a dime, and the seller avoids paying about 10% in fees charged by marketplaces like eBay.

Michelle loves to shop. As a result, she owns an impressive array of outfits and designer shoes. One weekend, she decides it's time to clear some inventory.

She explores listing her stuff on eBay but begins looking for alternatives after seeing the high transaction fees. She lists her items on Accept.io instead, and ends up trading her stuff for a new designer handbag, a new jacket, some sunglasses, five one-hour ski lessons with a local pro, and a bunch of FULC, which she plans to spend in the marketplace in the near future.
