About us

At Global Name Broker we have a long history in the domain name industry. We appreciate efficiency so we work hard to make our processes simple and straight forward.

Renewals

Our price quotes are one time prices for ownership of the domain name. Domains still need to be renewed to stay registered, which can be done at any registrar or most web hosts. Domain renewal prices are the same, typically $15/year (anywhere from free to $35/year depending on your chosen provider), regardless of the purchase price of the domain name.

Appraisals

Every domain we have listed has been appraised by a professional appraiser with experience appraising hundreds of thousands of domain names. We do not rely on automated, computer generated value estimations. We have a real person look at the domain and determine the value based on a wide range of relevant factors. We price domains fairly with the expectation of selling them because they are good domain names at good prices.

Sales Process

For most domain transactions the buyer chooses to go through escrow.com, which provides a safe third party escrow transaction service.

Payment Arrangements

We offer flexible payment arrangements typically spread over 30 months. These arrangements have several features:

1. You can start using the domain after the first payment
2. You can pay off the domain early at any time
3. There is no interest
4. You have full control of the domain (we can change the DNS to your
   host so you can control DNS records), the domain itself can transfer to
   another registrar after the domain is paid in full.

Leases

We offer lease options which help you manage cashflow and still give you the option to purchase the domain outright. Leases have several features:

1. You can start using the domain after the first payment
2. You have full control of the domain (we can change the DNS to your
   host so you can control DNS records), the domain itself can transfer to
   another registrar if the lease is converted to a sale and the domain is paid in full.
3. The lease continues as long as payments are made. There are no price
   increases, no cap on how long the lease goes and no minimum commitment.
4. You lock in the purchase price so if you convert to a purchase the
   price will not increase.
