Domain Broker | Your Domain Buy Service

The domain you’ve always wanted can still be yours, even if it’s already taken.

With Domain Broker Service, your domain broker will negotiate with the current owner to get the name for you.

We protect your privacy. You’ll stay anonymous throughout the process. The domain owner won’t know your identity.
Better network. As the world leader in domains, no one is better at finding out who owns a domain and how to reach them.
Our name gets attention. Domain owners are more likely to engage with a request from GoDaddy than from individual buyers.

Choose your name

You enter the domain you want in the search box on this page and add Domain Broker Service to your cart. We’ll send you an email asking for your budget range.

Tell us your budget

Once we know what you’re willing to pay for the domain, your domain broker will reach out to the current owner to see if he or she is interested in selling.

Sit back and let us close the deal

If the current owner’s willing to sell, your broker will negotiate on your behalf, with the goal of getting you the name for the lowest possible price.

Does Domain Broker Service guarantee that I’ll obtain the domain name I want?

The Domain Broker Service guarantees a personal domain broker that will dedicate a maximum of 30 days to mediate a sale with the domain name’s current owner. While we cannot guarantee the acquisition of a domain name, we will attempt to contact the current registrant and negotiate a deal for you.

How do you charge for the Domain Broker Service?

We charge an initial Domain Broker Service fee to start the domain buy process and if the domain name is successfully purchased, a 20% Buyer Broker fee (₹ 4,059.49 minimum fee) will be added to the domain purchase price.

The registrant is interested in selling their domain name. Now what?

If the domain owner is willing to sell their domain name to you, your domain name broker will start negotiating prices, starting with the minimum price you chose and working up to your maximum offer. After a price is settled on, an offer is made. Offers are valid for as many as 10 business days and cannot be canceled unless you want to accept a counter offer that was presented by the seller.

How do you contact the domain name registrant?

After you provide a budget range, we check the Registrant and Administrative Contacts listed for that domain name in the WhoIs database. More often than not, the registrant or administrative contact either owns the domain name or knows who does. Your domain broker will reach out to the owner by email or phone.

If the contact information associated with the domain doesn’t lead us to the owner, your domain name broker will only use publicly listed information to contact the him or her on your behalf.

How do I move the domain name that I purchased into my account?

Now that the domain name is yours, let’s move it into your account! If the domain name was not registered through GoDaddy, then you must purchase and complete a domain name transfer to move it into your account. If the domain name was registered through GoDaddy, then you must accept the domain name into your account via a change of account.

What happens if the domain name isn’t acquired?

If we are unable to contact the domain owner to sell their domain name, then we cannot move forward to acquire the domain name for you. Your domain broker will close your claim after 30 days or after the domain owner decides not to sell their domain name.

What is Domain Broker Service vs Domain Buy Service?

The GoDaddy Domain Buy Service is now called the Domain Broker Service. We still offer the same great service for you to buy a domain name that is taken. We launched the Domain Buy Service in 2006 and through the years we have helped customers buy domains that were already owned by someone else. Don’t be discouraged if your domain is taken. So try the Domain Buy Service…we mean Domain Broker Service today!
