For buyers
Your dream domain: safe, simple, paid your way.
Negotiate directly with the owner or with our assistant, around the clock. Premium domains are bought via escrow, and any other purchase can be secured with an escrow order on request.
Looking for the goose that lays the golden eggs? We built the whole farm.
Negotiate in chat
Right on the domain: the owner's assistant replies instantly and may make binding commitments. You confirm the agreement by email.
Buy now
Fixed price, one click. You then receive the payment instructions: from the owner directly or, for premium domains, for our escrow account.
Price offer
Right on the domain, even without an account. Counter-offers back and forth until you agree, often answered in seconds.
Auction
Place a maximum bid; the proxy bids only as much as needed. Late bids extend the auction. No sniping.
Lease-to-own
Down payment plus monthly instalments up to 60 months. You can use the domain from the first instalment.

Tip: Even without a premium domain, you can secure any purchase with an escrow order. How escrow works
Purchase via escrow
- Agree
Buy, have your offer accepted or win the auction. - Pay into escrow
By Bank transfer. The seller only sees the money at the end. - Receive the domain
By auth code or push at the registrar. - Check and confirm
You have 3 days to check. If there is a problem, open a dispute.
Lease-to-own in detail
- Calculator right on the page: choose a term and see down payment, monthly rate and total instantly.
- Use from the first instalment: enter your website and the domain redirects there immediately.
- Instalment plan with open and paid instalments, reminder before each due date.
- Pay off early with one click, no extra surcharge.
- After the last instalment the domain is transferred to you.
Auctions in detail
- Your maximum bid stays secret; the proxy bidder raises automatically.
- Bids shortly before the end extend the auction by a few minutes.
- Buy now until the first bid, if the seller offers it.
- Real countdown, real bids: all your bids at a glance in your account.
Security you can rely on
- Escrow: For premium domains and for every escrow order, the money stays in the escrow account until the transfer has succeeded.
- Dispute: In an escrow case the trustee decides with the full file at hand, and the money stays blocked until then.
- Verified sellers: Badges after identity check, no invented visitor numbers, no fake countdowns.
- Clear terms: Before every purchase you see exactly the terms that apply.
What else you get
