Remove uncertainty. View any seller’s global reputation, pay with escrow, and leave feedback for completed transactions.<br /> <br /> Reputation is decentralized, independent, and public, so it is available anywhere. Bring it with you and never worry about rebuilding it from scratch.<br /> <br /> Ink Protocol can be integrated into new or existing marketplaces and can also be used in marketplaces that don’t directly handle payments.<br /> <br /> Ink Protocol doesn’t require a marketplace.
