DOMAIN TRANSFER: HOW IT WORKS

Domain purchase agreement

Domain sales and purchase agreement: Both the buyer and seller will receive an electronic Sales and Purchase contract, specifically tailored to the domains or web projects at no additional charge.

Payment to a third-party account

The buyer pays the agreed sales price by wire transfer, PayPal, or credit card into a third-party account provided by Sedo.

Trouble-free domain transfer

Our transfer specialists work with both partners and provide support with the transfer between the two registrars to quickly and safely transfer the domain.

Payment to the seller

The seller is paid as soon as the domain transfer is completed. It's that simple!

Pricing

The applicant is charged a fee of 3% of the gross selling price, with a minimum fee of $60 for category 1 domains, and $200 for category 2 domains. (See price list) Upon request, we will also assist you in dividing the fee between the buyer and seller. 

Please note: The standard marketplace commission will still apply to external transactions, if the parties involved have carried out negotiations over the Sedo marketplace for the same domain.

There is an additional 3% express processing fee applied to payments over $500 made using Alipay, PayPal or via Credit Card.
