Handle offers and close a deal safely

Accept or decline offers, exchange contact details and protect yourself.

1. We email you when an offer arrives. Open the listing in Sell your domain to see the offers.
2. Accept or decline. When you accept one, the domain is marked Under offer and the other offers close.
3. Read the safety tips, tick the safety box and you both see each other's contact details. Agree the price, how it is paid and how the domain moves, in writing.
4. When the sale is finished, mark it Sold. If it fell through, put the domain back on sale.

Stay safe

• For anything more than a small amount, use an escrow service you trust: it holds the money until the domain has arrived.
• Seller: do not give the domain or its transfer code until the money is in your account and cleared.
• Buyer: do not pay until you have checked, in writing, that the seller really controls the domain.
• Be careful with pressure to hurry, payments that cannot be reversed and anyone who asks you to move the conversation somewhere else.
