Acquisitions
Buying process
From research to registrar push, this playbook keeps your acquisition organised and stress-free.
- Step 1
Discover & shortlist
Use search filters, curated lists, and expiring alerts to create a shortlist of names that align with your brand vision and budget.
- Step 2
Run diligence
Check trademarks, historical use, backlink quality, and technical readiness. Validate that the name is transferable and not encumbered.
- Step 3
Structure the offer
Anchor pricing in comps, communicate strategic value, and pair the offer with proof of funds or an escrow deposit to show seriousness.
- Step 4
Close via escrow
Agree on transfer timeline, hold funds in escrow, and document every milestone. Release payment only after the registrar push or auth-code transfer completes.
