Transaction Process
Escrow.com Domain Name Escrow Services. Escrow.com makes
domain transactions quick, easy and secure. Abbreviated overview
of the process:
Buyer and Seller Agree to
Terms
Both parties agree to terms of the transaction, which includes the
domain name(s) and sale price.
The Buyer Pays Escrow.com
The Buyer submits a payment, selecting wire transfer or in some
cases PayPal, credit card (American Express, Discover, MasterCard
and Visa) or check/money order. Escrow.com verifies good funds and
updates the website to prompt the seller to transfer the domain.
Payment options and Process times vary.
The Seller Indicates the
Domain Name Transfer Process Has Started.
After payment is secure, the seller is prompted to work with the
buyer and the registrar to transfer the domain ownership to the
buyer. Each domain registrar has a different procedure to transfer
domain ownership.
Domain Registration
Transferred by the Registrar
The inspection period is started once the Buyer indicates control
or Escrow.com confirms the WHOIS information reflects the Buyer’s
customer profile. The Buyer confirms full control through the
registrar and accepts the domain on the Escrow.com site.
The Seller is Paid by

When Escrow.com can verify the domain has been transferred to the
Buyer and the inspection period has ended, the Seller is paid. The
transaction is complete.

evenly between buyer and seller (escrow
