RedCoin’s 3 simple steps to setting up a seller account
Are you interested in selling one of your trademarks but are unsure of the process? The first thing you need to do is open a seller account. This will mean you have to be verified to ensure you are legally able to sell the trademark (ie, that you are the owner, their legal representative or acting in another legal capacity, such as a liquidator). All the steps are outlined below. If you have any further questions that we haven’t covered, please see our FAQs, or drop us a line using the comments box.

Step one
Select your account: you can either have a Standard account – which costs nothing, but you pay per listing – or a Premium account, where you pay a subscription fee to get free listings and cheaper credits. Once you choose, go ahead and register – don’t worry, you can always change your type account later.
-
Step three
Once you are verified, you will need to pay – either for credits for listing if you are a Standard seller, or your subscription fee if you are a Premium seller. For all sellers you can top-up your credits when you want. Once you’ve done that, you’re able to start listing your marks: good luck!

Step two
Once you have agreed a price for a trademark, you will be directed to the escrow facility where details of the transaction will be automatically present. A buyer will need to put their money into escrow (either from a credit or debit card, or via a wire transfer).
-
Step four
Once both parties are happy with the documents, you alert Escrow.com of the completion of the negotiations and the payments are passed to the seller. If you are unable to reach an agreement on the documents, you are able to cancel the transaction. The money will be returned to the buyer.
