🛡️ TradeShield (Selling) – When It Applies & How It Protects Your Selling safely matters.

TradeShield on Eldorado.gg is designed to protect you from payment-related risks and provide structured coverage for specific product categories - so you can focus on selling with confidence.


1️⃣ Automatic Protection – From the Moment You Get Paid

✔️ When TradeShield Starts

TradeShield activates automatically:

  • The moment a buyer successfully completes payment

  • During order processing and delivery

  • Throughout any payment dispute or chargeback process

There’s no extra cost and no manual activation required. Protection is built into the transaction.


2️⃣ Payment Protection – You’re Covered Against Fraud

Online payments can sometimes involve risks - but you are not left to manage them alone.

🔒 What TradeShield Covers

  • Fraudulent payments

  • Unauthorized transactions

  • Chargebacks

  • Payment provider disputes

🤝 What This Means for You

  • The platform handles communication with payment providers

  • You are not required to fight disputes yourself

  • Your completed sale remains financially protected in accordance with platform rules

This ensures that legitimate sellers are not financially penalized due to payment fraud.


3️⃣ Additional Protection for Game Account Sales

Some categories require additional safeguards to maintain fairness for both parties.
