How a deal closes

One point of contact, from first approach to final transfer.

Buyer and seller never have to deal with each other directly. DomainBooth runs the negotiation, and a licensed escrow service holds the money until the domain has moved.

The buyer briefs DomainBooth, which approaches the seller and negotiates. The buyer pays a licensed escrow service, the seller transfers the domain to the buyer, and escrow then pays the seller. $ .com $ Buyer Seller DB Escrowholds the funds

Questions

Premium domains, plainly answered.

What does a domain broker do?

A broker represents one side of a domain sale. For buyers, DomainBooth finds the owner of a name, approaches them discreetly and negotiates the purchase. For sellers, we price the name and put it in front of qualified buyers. Either way, we manage the deal through escrow to transfer.

Can I buy a domain that is already registered?

Usually, yes. Most valuable names are owned by someone, and many owners will sell at the right price even if the name is not listed for sale. Some will not, and we tell you plainly when that is the case.

How much does a premium domain cost?

It depends on the name. Published sales on our Track Record run from four figures to $3.8 million. Short, one-word and category-defining names command the highest prices.

How do I pay safely?

Through a licensed escrow service such as Escrow.com. The buyer pays escrow, the seller transfers the domain, and escrow releases the money only once the domain is in the buyer's account.

Will the owner know who is buying?

Not unless you want them to. Owners often raise the price when they know a large company is asking, so we keep the buyer's identity out of the negotiation where appropriate.

Do you work with .AI domains?

Yes. DomainBooth is one of the most active investors and brokers in premium .AI names; its own sales include Merge.ai, Genesis.ai and T.ai.

What does DomainBooth charge?

Our fees are success-based: 10% of the sale price, and nothing is due unless the deal completes. The Acquire and Sell pages set out how each works.
