Rather than charging commissions on domain sales and leases, at domainAlot.com, we believe a fairer and more transparent model is to offer domain owners the opportunity to sell their domains for a one-time, low-cost listing fee.
domainAlot.com is the only Commission-Free domain marketplace. This means, we do not take any commission from the sale of any domain using our site and services. In addition, we do not charge additional fees, or attempt to hide any additional costs such as marketplace or membership fees from our users. This is because domainAlot was founded on the principle of offering both domain owners and interested buyers, a fairer, more transparent platform in which they may conduct business safely, securely and achieve greatest return from their digital assets. In order to accomplish this, we decided upon a completely different and fairer system where the domain owner is charged a small fee to list their domain, rather than the other marketplaces and so called domain aftermarkets that choose to extract huge revenues from domain owners through exuberant commissions and fees in order to satisfy shareholders and profit margins.
domainAlot.com provides domain owners with four (4) alternative timeframes for listing their domain that determines their total fee.
Once you have added your domain to "My Portfolio" in your Account Dashboard, and completed your domain details, you can pay your preferred listing fee to activate your domain.
No problem. Once you have added your domain to "My Portfolio" in your Account Dashboard, your domain, and the details that you entered for the domain remain saved until you opt to either activate your domain or delete it from your dashboard.
Yes. you are free to update every aspect of your domain from preferred Categories, Meta Search Tags, Appraisal Value, as well as Asking Price. In fact, you can update, and/ or revise any detail of your domain with the exception of the actual domain name itself, which remains locked.
Yes, but not all details. Once the listing fee for your domain is paid, your domain becomes active and is listed on our site as well as promoted across our social media channels. Because various details of your domain, such as Appraisal Value, and Asking Price are publicly available, we cannot allow these details to be changed once the domain is under the consideration of potential buyers. However, other details, such as Meta Search Tags and relevant Domain Categories etc. may be updated at any time to increase the scope and reach of your domain in search results.
No, absolutely not. The domain listing fee is for the duration you wish to list your domain for and not for how and/ or the options that you wish to make your domain available.
Yes. When you list your domain on domainAlot.com, you can choose to:
domainAlot.com is a domain marketplace and brokerage service. While the vast majority of domain marketplaces and brokerage services are either owned by domain registrars or partner directly with domain registrars, domainAlot.com is a completely independent, and private company. This means that we are not obligated to meet the needs of owners and investors, but are able to keep our operational costs to an absolute minimum. As a platform, without the need to return shareholder dividends, we are free to focus on our role in helping and enabling domain owners and domain buyers to reach their ambitions. A part of this freedom is the ability to provide ZERO-Commissions, minimise fees, and maximise value to our users and members which is why we only charge one listing fee.

No. domainAlot.com uses the payment services of Stripe.com in order to facilitate and complete domain leasing payments. These processing fees (usually 2.9% + $0.30 (USD) for domestic cards and wallet payments), with variations for international, manual, or instant bank payments are covered in the sum of the lease. The Domain Leasing Agreement (DLA) for any domain that is listed for lease on domainAlot.com specifically stipulates that the processing fee for leasing payments is deducted from the sum received by the domain owner (lessor).
No. When the seller transfers ownership of a domain to the buyer, they simply contact their registrar and request the necessary Authorisation Codes (Auth/ EPP Codes) to unlock the domain and update the relevant contact details to confirm new ownership. This process does not incur a fee or charge from the registrar, or ICANN, and no domain owner should ever accept a domain brokerage service that attempts to extract payment in order to transfer ownership of a domain.
No, domainAlot does not charge any fees for the transferring of domains on your behalf. When you purchase a domain, the existing domain owner will unlock the domain to update and revise all details of ownership so that these are reflected in the ICANN registry. At this point, while the domain you have purchased is yours, and you are free to use your domain as you wish, ICANN typically locks and prevents further registration changes to the domain for a period of sixty (60) days. This restriction, which is provided to prevent domain hijacking, includes the ability to transfer a domain to another new/ preferred registrar. However, once this period has passed, your new registrar will typically charge a one-time transfer fee. While this fee varies from registrar to registrar, it is usually around $10 (USD).
