To initiate the escrow purchase of the domain Sonoko.com, find the green button in the top part of this page. It looks like this:
Pressing that buttons brings you directly to the Escrow.com page for this domain purchase:
All your dealings from this point on are with Escrow.com, not us. Since 1999, they have been the world's biggest and most trusted online escrow service.
An escrow service enables trusted transactions by holding the money until it has been independently confirmated that the buyer has received the item, in this case the domain Sonoko.com.
The Escrow.com option is only for buying the domain. To rent the domain you deal directly with us.
The Escrow.com page contains all the details of the transaction, including the price, the domain name, and confirms that we, the seller, are responsible for the escrow fees, not you. You pay only the purchase price as listed on that page. In the case of Sonoko.com that total price will be $29,000.
If you have used Escrow.com before, you can log in to your account and proceed to the payment stage.
If you have not used Escrow.com before, you can create an account. They will ask you to provide official ID, such as a scan of your passport, and other documents. As a licensed financial institution, they are required to do this. The verification process will be completed within a few days or a week at most.
In rare cases, Escrow.com may reject your application. This is their decision, not ours. In that situation, please consider a direct payment to us by bank transfer, Wise.com, or crypto.
Once Escrow.com have verified your identity and activated your account, you can proceed to the payment stage. They will ask you to pay the full amount of $29,000 by bank transfer/wire. When they receive the money, they will ask me to transfer the domain to you.
Escrow.com will hold your money until they verify that you have received the domain. The domain transfer is fast and easy but if, for some reason, you do not receive the domain, Escrow.com refunds all of your money.
If you have any further questions about the Escrow.com process, please contact them directly.
If you would prefer to skip the Escrow.com process, you can pay us directly (by bank transfer, Wise.com, or crypto) and also receive a discount.
We offer a 5% discount for direct payment, reducing the price to $27,550.
We accept bank transfers. We also highly recommend WISE transfers.
EU customers can send SEPA transfers to our EU bank account. The EURO price is based on the current interbank exchange rate and must be confirmed with us.
US bank transfers take 2-3 working days. International transfers take 4-5 working days. EU bank transfers usually take a few minutes. WISE transfers and crypto payments are instant.
Use the contact form above to request our bank or WISE payment details.
We offer the option to pay by crypto because we are aware that in some countries it is difficult to make international bank transfers.
The 7.5% discount for crypto payment reduces the price to $26,825 but we only recommend this option if you are already familiar with crypto. Do not waste your time or peace-of-mind on crypto if you are not already comfortable with it.
We accept any cryptocurrency listed by the Kraken exchange but recommend using a stable coin such as Tether (USDT), which is pegged to the US dollar. This avoids fluctuations in value before you complete your purchase. The Euro version of Tether (EURT) or the Chinese Yuan version of Tether (CNHT) offer the same stability if buying in those currencies.
Paying by crypto is already cheaper and faster than any bank transfer but you also get that 7.5% discount.
Use the contact form above to request our crypto payment details.
We do not accept credit cards, PayPal, gift cards, or NFTs.
We do not offer the option of payment in installments - please consider renting, with the right to buy later, if you need more flexibility.
We are generally not interested in exchanging our domain for equity. Possible exceptions for established companies, startups with a clear path to profitability, or individuals with a proven track record. For early-stage startups on a tight budget, we recommend renting the domain first and purchasing later, at the original price, when you attract your first round of investment.
We are reluctant to trade for other domains. We would be willing to consider high-quality .com domains but all the other TLDs are unsuited to professional use. High-quality means short, memorable, easy-to-spell names that would make good brands. Domains that contain hyphens, numbers, or international characters have zero value.
Due to the nature of domains, we cannot offer refunds. All sales are final.
If you are not 100% certain about your project, we urge you to consider renting the domain first. For just 5% of the full price, you get to launch your idea with a high-quality .com domain and spend three months growing your business. You get to battle-test your assumptions before considering a more serious expenditure.
The rental option provides a low-cost, zero-commitment way to try out your idea with an impressive .com domain while retaining the option to buy, at the same price, at any time.
Renting is also a way to LOCK this domain and prevent anyone else from grabbing it while you take time to decide whether you want to go ahead with a full purchase. No one else can jump in and buy Sonoko.com while you are renting it.
Renting will FREEZE the current price, avoiding any future increases. You can inexpensively test your idea without worrying that, if your project is successful, the purchase price will suddenly increase.
Even if inflation devalues the dollar, you retain the right to buy at $29,000 (or $26,825 if paying with crypto) for as long as you continue to rent. Note, however, that no money you pay in rent is deducted from the purchase price.
The minimum rental period is twelve weeks. The agreement continues for as long as you continue to pay the full rent, as scheduled, every twelve weeks in advance. You can quit at any time, without notice and with no further obligation, by simply not making the next payment.
During the rental, we retain ownership of the domain and control the DNS settings, following your instructions. This allows you to start using the domain immediately upon our receipt of your payment.
As renter, you are not permitted to engage in activities that could damage the reputation and value of the domain, such as spamming or any illegal acts.
We value long-term, mutually beneficial relationships with renters but retain the absolute right to cancel the arrangement if we detect shenanigans. So far, we have never had to do this.
To ensure fairness, in the event of canceling the rental agreement, you can still excercise your right, up until the last day of the period that has already been paid for, to buy the domain at the original price of $29,000 (or $26,825 if paying with crypto). This means that we cannot simply cancel the rental agreement because we want the domain back.
