How it works
Trade crypto with people, safely
QuataTrade is a peer-to-peer marketplace. You trade directly with another person, and escrow holds the crypto until the deal is done.
If you’re buying USDT
Pick an offer
Browse sellers by price and payment method, and open a trade for the amount you want.
Seller’s crypto locks
The seller’s USDT is locked in escrow the moment your trade opens.
Pay & submit proof
Pay the seller with MoMo, Orange Money, or QuataPay, then submit your reference and details.
Receive crypto
When the seller confirms your payment, escrow releases the USDT to your wallet.
If you’re selling USDT
Create an offer
Set your rate, limits, and which payment methods you accept.
Crypto locks in escrow
When a buyer opens a trade, your USDT for that amount locks automatically.
Get paid
The buyer pays you off-platform and submits proof in the trade room.
Confirm & release
Confirm the money is in YOUR account, then release. Escrow sends the crypto to the buyer minus the fee.
Why escrow matters
Escrow means the seller’s crypto is held safely until they confirm your payment landed. If there’s a problem, either side can open a dispute — escrow freezes and a real person reviews the evidence. A screenshot is not money; the seller’s confirmation is what releases funds.
