Payments
Payment instructions and fund distribution for horse sales
The riskiest moment in a horse transaction is the payment: informal bank details, unclear references and no shared record of what was agreed. Arena issues official payment instructions to the buyer and coordinates the distribution of funds to the seller and other beneficiaries.
Official payment instructions to the buyer
When terms are accepted and any required veterinary review is cleared, Arena issues payment instructions to the buyer with a clear amount, currency and identifiable reference — automatically, without anyone sending bank details over chat.
Beneficiaries and distribution
Sellers and intermediaries set up their payout accounts. Once funds are received and delivery confirmed, the agreed amounts are distributed. Beneficiary onboarding blocks only the distribution — it never delays the buyer's instructions.
What Arena is and is not
Arena coordinates payment instructions and distribution as transaction infrastructure. It is not a bank, not a generic escrow account, and it does not provide financial or legal advice or guarantee payment beyond what the parties actually agree.
