Questions people ask before buying

In line with what comparable .ae names have sold for. We have been buying and selling .ae domains since 2006, so we have a long record to compare against. Length is a big factor, and so is the size of the audience a word can serve. A four-letter dictionary word for a whole industry costs more than a longer, narrower phrase.

No. The listed price is the price, and it is the same for everyone. The offer button on each name exists for people who want to start a conversation about a name that is above their budget, but we do not run auctions or counter-offers.

By bank transfer to our UAE account, in AED or USD, or through Escrow.com if you prefer a third party to hold the money until the domain is yours. We do not take card payments at the moment.

Within 24 hours of the funds arriving in our account. Most transfers finish the same day. Escrow adds one to three days for the escrow company's own checks.

Yes. Any person or company anywhere in the world can register and hold a .ae name. No UAE trade licence, residency or local address is needed.

Whichever .ae-accredited registrar you already use, or a new account we open in your company's name if you do not have one. You get full control of the account, including the ability to move the name elsewhere later.

Yes, from our UAE-registered company, with VAT shown where it applies. Tell us the company name and address you want on it when you pay.

No. A name stays available to everyone until a transfer arrives. If two buyers pay for the same name, the earlier payment gets it and the later one is refunded in full.

No, we only sell the names. We are happy to introduce you to designers and developers we have worked with in Dubai.
