Buying a Domain Name

The domain buying process with DomainNameSales.com is designed to be easy and give you access to the domain name you purchase as quickly as possible.

  1. Let us know the name you are interested in and any other information you’d like the registrant to consider. You’ll receive an email confirmation to reply to. By making sure we’re responding to a real person, we can devote more time to our customers.
  2. You will then submit a bid for the domain name.
  3. We’ll contact the registrant, confirm that the domain is available for sale, and get you a response ASAP.
  4. If your offer is accepted we’ll guide you through the rest of the sales process. If the bid is countered, we’ll work with you to arrive at a price that works for both you and the registrant.
  5. Once we are agreed on price and terms, we will initiate an Escrow.com transaction. You will need to login, accept terms, and fund the purchase. Escrow.com is a company that ensures that the sale will complete safely for all parties. Much like real estate, your money is held “in trust” until the domain name is in your possession.
  6. When Escrow confirms receipt of funds, they will advise the seller to provide you with a transfer code (EPP). Once the domain is in your name, at your registrar, you will instruct Escrow.com to release the funds to the seller. The registrant never gets your money until you have irrevocable control of the domain name.
  7. Please note, you will need to transfer the domain to your own registrar – the current one does not support retail registrations.
  8. Most domain name transfers take approximately 5 days. With this registrant, as soon as you make your transfer request, almost all domains qualify to be “pushed” to your account immediately. 

We are available to answer your questions and guide you through the sales process at all times.
