How do Sourcing Companies work with Meeting Escrow?

 

1. Sourcing Companies introduce potential clients who they feel could benefit from our secure payment services.
    

2. Meeting Escrow handles everything from that point forward (no extra workload for you)
    

3. Once Meeting Escrow is approved as a vendor of record with your client, we open a main trust account for receipt of funds from the client and separate trust accounts for each of their divisions (if applicable) and programs.  Program trust accounts can be set up in 20 different currencies so that funds can be exchanged and held in the correct currency, eliminating risk to your client's budget due to exchange rate fluctuations.
    

4. Meeting Escrow is introduced to vendors (hotels, DMCs, and other providers) at the RFP stage with the stipulation that you would like all advance deposits held in escrow until the program begins. This reduces risk. 
    

5. Meeting Escrow pays all vendors on your clients' behalf from the trust accounts set up for their respective programs.
    

6. Meeting Escrow can also coordinate VAT tax recovery, obtain completed foreign vendor tax forms (example W-8BEN forms for US companies working with hotels and other vendors out of the country), and provide event insurance recommendations. These services are provided on a complimentary basis.
