Frequently Asked Questions

This website is the official clearnet informational gateway and link directory for Torzon Market. Since the marketplace operates exclusively within the Tor network as a hidden service, users cannot access it directly via standard web browsers. We provide cryptographic mirrors, onboarding guides, verification instructions, and general operational status updates to assist buyers and vendors in connecting safely to the correct portal.

.onion links are specialized web addresses used exclusively by Tor hidden services. Unlike traditional domains (.com, .org), .onion links do not rely on standard Domain Name System (DNS) servers or centralized authorities. Instead, they run through the Tor routing system, establishing end-to-end encrypted connections that completely mask the physical locations and IP addresses of both the hosting server and the visiting user, ensuring absolute security.

To access the platform, you must install the official Tor Browser from the Tor Project website. Standard browsers cannot resolve hidden service domains. Once active, set your security level to 'Safer' or 'Safest' within Tor settings, copy our verified .onion link, and paste it into the search bar. This ensures a direct, authenticated interface connection to our active decentralized market node.

Launch Tor Browser and click the primary verified .onion link. Solve the introductory captcha to bypass automated mitigation systems. On the home page, select the registration terminal. Fill in a unique, non-identifiable username, a robust password, and a secondary security PIN for transaction authorizations. Finally, import your PGP public key to secure your access and finalize the creation process.

Authentication relies on Pretty Good Privacy (PGP) cryptography. Every server mirror we host is cryptographically signed with the official Torzon marketplace PGP key. You must verify these signatures using your local software (such as GnuPG) against our public key. This procedure guarantees that the domain you are visiting has not been modified or intercepted by unauthorized third parties.

Torzon Market is engineered with a high degree of defensive infrastructure, but absolute safety relies on user operations. Never navigate without a configured Tor Browser. Enable PGP Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) immediately upon registry, utilize Monero (XMR) to prevent trackable public ledgers, and never share identifiable shipping details in plain text. Always encrypt delivery addresses using the vendor's PGP public key.

Stealth Mode is a specialized visual interface switch integrated straight into our marketplace dashboard. When active, it immediately renders all visual graphics, product images, and distinct colors invisible. This reduces your screen's visual profile to plain text formatting, ensuring that shoulder-surfers or public cameras cannot easily recognize that you are browsing the marketplace.

PGP-enabled Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) ensures that even if an adversary gains access to your account password, they cannot hijack your profile. During login, the server generates a random text string, encrypts it with your registered PGP public key, and requires you to decrypt it locally to provide the system with the verified response code.

The framework processes Monero (XMR) and Bitcoin (BTC). Monero is highly recommended because of its native ring signatures and stealth address technologies, which prevent blockchain tracking. Bitcoin remains supported but is subject to visible ledger tracking. All transactions can be settled either through our standard escrow balances or through our custom 'Direct Payment' (Walletless) protocol.

Our dynamic escrow system holds transaction funds securely in a neutral depository during the transition phase. The default time-lock period is set to 14 days. During this period, the vendor processes and delivers the order. Funds are only transferred to the vendor's account once you manually finalize the order or when the auto-finalize countdown expires, protecting your capital from premature distribution.

Direct Payment Mode is our proprietary walletless transaction model. Instead of depositing massive cryptocurrency reserves to an internal marketplace wallet database that could be compromised, you pay exact invoices directly at the time of purchase. Generating unique, single-use invoice receiving addresses ensures minimum data exposure and guarantees you only send the exact budget required.

Yes. If shipping takes longer than expected, buyers can extend the escrow holding timer. Standard status profiles can request two extensions (2x 7 days). Users with upgraded Basic-Plus or Premium rank statuses can request up to three extensions (3x 7 days), offering superior margins of transaction protection for international cargo transits.

To establish a vendor shop, merchants must pay a baseline vendor bond to verify financial commitment and limit disposable accounts. Established vendors from recognized alternative markets can request a bond waiver by presenting verifiable PGP-signed feedback logs. All sellers must strictly adhere to shipping windows, maintain transparent communication, and operate exclusively within the platform's escrow regulations.

If an issue arises, you can open a dispute prior to the auto-finalization limit. This action freezes the transaction escrow timer. Both the buyer and the vendor must submit evidence, such as shipping tracking numbers or communication logs, within the secure dispute layout. A neutral platform moderator will examine the PGP-encrypted history and allocate the held funds accordingly.

At the core software level, we prohibit specific categories that present severe security or humanitarian risks. These exclusions include child exploitation materials, chemical or biological weaponry, personal documentation harvesting (doxing data packages), and active malware or lethal compounds. Violators are immediately banned, and vendor deposits are permanently seized.

Onion nodes may occasionally drop due to heavy network routing adjustments or defense updates. If the primary link fails to load, wait a few minutes, clear your Tor circuit, and try our secondary mirror listings. Always check our system status widget in the sidebar for real-time diagnostics. Ensure you copy the complete link string without any missing characters or spaces.

All communication must be routed within the platform to maintain end-to-end security. Open a ticket from your account dashboard. Our support desk operates 24/7 to resolve technical, dispute, or payment issues. Never seek support on standard, public clearnet platforms, as administrators will never ask for credentials, secure PINs, or private keys outside the official .onion portal.

Our built-in daily raffle system acts as a fun mechanism to reward platform users. The final prize pool aggregates from fractions of daily marketplace volume. Basic-Plus accounts receive daily free entries automatically, and participants can check winning nodes straight from their quick panel settings, maintaining transparent random metrics.
