Sell XLM

There are two ways to sell:

Option	When to use
Post a sell order	Set your own price and wait for buyers
Sell into a buy order	Sell immediately at a buyer's price

Selling into a buy order

1. Make sure you have deposited XLM and added a payout account for the method you'll use.
2. On the market, switch to Sell XLM.
3. Choose a buyer and tap Sell XLM, then confirm.
4. Your XLM moves into escrow. You need the amount plus 2 XLM available.

During the trade

1. Wait for the buyer to pay. They have 15 minutes.
2. When the buyer taps I have paid, check your bank or wallet app.
3. If the money is there, release the XLM.

Never release on a screenshot

Confirm the credit in your own banking app. SMS alerts and receipts can be faked.

If the buyer doesn't pay

When the 15-minute window closes without payment, the escrow refunds you automatically. If you were selling into your own posted order, it goes back on the market (unless it has expired).

TIP

As a seller you can release at any point after escrow is locked — for example if the buyer paid but forgot to tap I have paid.
