Step 5: When You Make a Sale

πŸ“§ You'll Be Notified!

When a buyer purchases your domain (via Stripe or USDC), you'll receive an email notification instantly.

  2. Find the order and click "Transfer Now"
  3. Enter the domain's Authorization Code (EPP Code)
  4. The buyer will receive a secure link to claim their domain

Step 6: Getting Paid

Card Payments (Stripe)

USDC Payments (Crypto)

⚠️ Important: 48-Hour Rule

You must provide the Authorization Code within 48 hours of receiving payment. If you don't, the buyer is entitled to a full refund (card) or USDC return (crypto).

Alternative: Escrow.com

For buyers who prefer traditional escrow, you can also accept offers through Escrow.com integration. This is useful for high-value domains ($500+) or international transactions.

External Registrar Checkout Links

Sellers without an onboarded Stripe Connect account can sell domains externally by adding check-out links from GoDaddy, Dynadot, or Spaceship. Below are the specific rules and pricing structures for each supported registrar:

1. Spaceship (SellerHub)

Minimum Price: $100

Spaceship’s SellerHub platform maintains a strict $100 minimum listing price for both fixed-price ("Buy It Now") configurations and "Make Offer" baseline thresholds. It offers a very competitive 5% to 10% commission structure, but it does not accommodate lower-value budget listings.

2. GoDaddy (Afternic / Dan Engine)

Minimum Price: $99 (System Baseline)

The hard system minimum to push a functional "Buy It Now" checkout link across GoDaddy's global registrar distribution network (Afternic) is $99.

⚠️ The Catch: GoDaddy/Afternic applies a minimum commission fee of $15 per sale. Pricing a checkout link anywhere near or below that threshold means the transaction fees would completely swallow your payout.

3. Dynadot (Marketplace)

Minimum Price: No Minimum (Previously $5)

Dynadot officially removed its $5 minimum price requirement for Buy It Now (BIN) and Closeout marketplace listings. This update gives you the ultimate flexibility to set a checkout link at virtually any low-dollar amount you want.

β€’ The Commission: Dynadot charges a flat 10% marketplace commission, meaning low-value liquidations won't get entirely eaten by a rigid flat-rate fee floor.
