Client Stories

Domains acquired. Brands transformed.

"We needed our exact brand name as a .com — it was owned by a competitor abroad. Sedo's broker negotiated the deal without revealing our identity. We had the domain transferred in under three weeks."

"I'd already tried contacting the owner myself — no response. Sedo's broker reached them within days, negotiated a fair price, and managed the entire transfer. The ROI on our rebrand alone justified the commission many times over."

FAQ

Common questions

What if the domain owner doesn't want to sell?
Many owners who initially decline will revisit an offer when approached professionally with a fair price. Our brokers are experienced at opening conversations that lead to deals even in seemingly impossible situations. If after exhausting all avenues no deal can be reached, you won't be charged anything.
How long does the acquisition process take?
Timelines vary depending on how responsive the seller is and the complexity of negotiations. Simple acquisitions can close in 2–4 weeks. More complex deals with multiple counter-offers may take 30–90 days. We'll keep you informed throughout the entire process.
Will the seller know who's buying the domain?
By default, Sedo approaches sellers on your behalf without disclosing your identity. This prevents sellers from inflating their asking price. You can choose to disclose your identity if you believe it would be advantageous to the negotiation.
What domains can you acquire?
We can pursue any registered domain, regardless of extension — .com, .net, .org, country codes (ccTLDs), or new gTLDs. We've successfully acquired domains in over 150 countries. The only requirement is that the domain currently be registered by an identifiable owner.
Is there a minimum budget?
There is no strict minimum budget, but the service is most effective for acquisitions where the expected transaction value is $1,000 or more. For premium domains (typically $10,000+), a dedicated senior broker is assigned to your request.
