Escrow Guide

Using escrow for domain purchases.

Escrow and established marketplace providers can give buyers and sellers a structured process for payment and transfer.

What Escrow Does

An escrow provider typically holds buyer funds while the agreed transfer steps are completed. The exact process, release conditions, fees, and timing depend on the provider and transaction terms.

Choosing a Path

Some domains may already have a preferred buy-now, marketplace, or escrow path. If not, the buyer and seller can discuss a provider that fits the domain, price, jurisdiction, and payment method.

Before You Commit

Confirm the domain, price, fees, payment deadline, transfer steps, and release conditions in writing through the selected provider before sending funds.
