Start A Domain Escrow Transaction Now

Unlike companies such as Escrow.com, Moniker is an ICANN Accredited Registrar and the only company with a special domain escrow account at its registrar to safely hold domains and protect both buyer and seller of domain related transactions. In addition, we have established the only domain related financial escrow account through the largest financial institution in the world - Citibank. Changing ownership at Moniker.com is quick and secure, making it possible to complete domain transactions quicker and safer than any other company on web. If needed, our domain escrow service supplies both parties with all the legal documentation to complete any kind of domain transaction including outright purchases, leases, lease or monthly payments, etc. Domain escrow transactions can vary in price and typically cost between 2% and 10% of the sale/purchase price.

Their fees:
Domain Sale Price in US Dollars Basic Escrow Fees in US Dollars
$1 - $500 = $50
$501 - $1,000 = $75
$1,001 - $2,000 = $95
$2,001 - $4,000 = $150
$4,001 - $6,000 = $175
$6,001 - $10,000 = $200
$10,001 - $15,000 = $250
$15,001 - $20,000 = $300
$20,0001+ = Quote will be emailed

Not bad at the higher levels.

Any reviews/users/fans/lovers/haters out there?

I think escrow.com charges less! recently a buyer had to pay about $267 for a $35k domain sale.

Yes, escrow.com does charge less. They charged my client $180 for a $12,000 sale.

One advantage to using moniker over escrow is that they'll help transfer the
domain aside from handling payment issues. With escrow, you and the other
party are on your own after payment has been made.
