Company Introduction:
P2Gamer is The Gaming Freelancers online platform for players of massively multiplayer online (MMO) games to buy, sell, and trade in game currency, account, item and list their custom job to other players. P2Gamer doesn’t directly aggregate or sell game assets. Rather, P2Gamer allows third-party sellers to list items for sale. Sellers can then choose to conduct the transaction directly through the Buyer without any fees or include P2Gamer as a third party to secure the payment and assets in an escrow until delivery has been verified by the buyer, at which point the buyer’s funds are released to the seller. Using this system, which P2Gamer refers to as “Middleman,” neither buyer nor seller shares personal information, and transactions are guaranteed. P2Gamer reduces the potential risk of fraud by collecting, holding and disbursing funds.
