Escrow Procedure for Domain Name Sales
Once the buyer has accepted your bid, the purchase will go into to escrow. We use Escrow.com, an accredited escrow company, as a secure third party to protect the Buyer and Seller. The escrow process works as follows:
-
Buyer and Seller Agree to Terms
Both parties agree to terms of the transaction, which includes the domain name(s) and sale price. -
The Buyer Pays Escrow.com
The Buyer submits a payment, selecting check, money order, wire transfer, or credit card online. Escrow.com verifies the payment. -
The Seller Sends the Paperwork to The Registrar
The Seller has to complete a form to transfer any domain names to another party. For some registrars (example: Network Solutions or Register.com), this form may have to be notarized and dated. -
Registration transferred by The Registrar
Transfer of the domain name usually takes 2 to 3 weeks. -
The Seller is Paid by Escrow.com
When Escrow.com can verify the domain has been transferred to the Buyer, the Seller is paid by check or wire transfer. The transaction is complete.
