Each of these companies traded a longer, compromised name for the one-word .COM that matched the brand they were already building. Every quote below comes from a founder or executive.

HOW AN ACQUISITION WORKS

Three steps from shortlist to transfer

Most premium names are already owned, so buying one is a negotiation rather than a checkout. A broker runs that process for you, anonymously where it helps.

  1. Step 1: Shortlist and value

    We map the names that fit your brand, check which are realistically obtainable, and give you a defensible valuation range for each based on comparable sales.

    No obligation at this stage

  2. Step 2: Approach and negotiate

    We contact the owner on your behalf. Staying unnamed keeps the price anchored to the domain's market value rather than to your company's funding round.

    Buyer identity stays confidential

  3. Step 3: Escrow and transfer

    Funds sit with a licensed escrow agent until the domain lands in your registrar account. Neither side is exposed, and payment plans can be arranged on larger acquisitions.
