Escrow Integration in a PHP Auction SIte

Hi all,

This is Anoop,Project Coordinator,Tecriti Consulting.My query is regarding escrow API integration in a PHP Reverse Auction Website. I am handling a project for a Reverse Auction website where the transactions happen between business and consumers.The client wants to integrate escrow functionality.How does it work?I have the escrow.com API. Anyone any idea how much fees will escrow.com charge?Also is it necessary to couple Paypal or any other payment methods with escrow?Can we integrate a dual payment option - up to some amount (say $5000) no escrow funding and transactions greater than $5000 escrow funding?

Thanks in advance for the help.
