Catch.club Official Thread

[Catch.club]

Hello NamePros community!

We are creating a single thread where we can share announcements, talk about product updates and people can ask questions!

We are fine-tuning the system this week, please feel free to check it out at www.catch.club

We are also adding a domain keyword / domain type monitor service, so you can get notification free of charge if there is any preferred domain in pending delete status.

https://catch.club/how-it-works

If you have any questions, please let us know!

Catch.club Team

P.s. At www.catch.club/auctions we list daily the English 1 word exact match .com and .net domains in pending delete status.

P.s. More TLDs are coming! -> https://catch.club/how-it-works

This was a promoted post.​

 

[Catch.club]

Has this been added? I successfully caught a name but I only see DNS no NS update, I need NS or at least a redirect option.

Hi! We are working on the NameServer update option. In the meantime you can reach out to our support and we will manually change the caught domains' nameservers.

 

[Catch.club]

Is catchclub still being worked on? It seems the front page is outdated "Find the domain name of your choice. Currently we support only .com"

I would also like to know all registrars being used so I don't compete with myself.

We work with all major and minor backorder platforms. If you place 80+ USD bid, we will submit your backorder with all of our partners, if you offer a lower amount, we will place the order with fewer platforms.

[Catch.club]

Ok, I was more saying that the page was outdated, but yeah I asked to see all platforms so that I don't place a competing offer, I mainly use Sav though. Is that one of the platforms used? As most of my names are very niche, I don't want them to go to auction and get attention as 99% of domains I have caught thus far go to Sav, and 99% of those were no auction but if you guys place the order there too then it will go to auction.

I have a big list so they alert me of an upcoming backorder, then I know to monitor it more closely. Plus their win rate for my niches is pretty good only sometimes losing to Dropcatch/HugeDomains or snap.

If you are monitoring keywords probably our Domain Watch tool could be interesting for you as well.

You can use it free of charge at www.catch.club/account/watch, then if there is a domain matching your requirement we will send you the domain name list directly to your mailbox.

If you are happy with catch rate of SAV there is not much argument to use Catch.club at the moment as using our service is a balance of increased average catch rate VS the chance of increased average price.

Most of our customers value their time highly, and instead of spending hours daily placing backorders on different platforms manually, they just spend minutes placing orders with us.

And we also take over the task of keeping track where the domain is caught, then transfer the domain to your NameSilo account. So no matter where the domain is registered, the domain will be moved to your NameSilo account automatically.

Sav currently holds currently 1.26% of ICANN accredited registrars, so by using Catch.club you can dramatically increase the chance of getting your preferred domains.

 

[Catch.club]

I sent a message yesterday in chat and they told me to email but still nothing, no response or NS change. This is one of the main reasons this seems less attractive of an option to me as the current DNS settings are of no use to me. As you say your clients value their time highly, that includes me, so having to jump in to message you guys to change the nameservers is not a good use of time. Additionally the longer it takes to get these domains pointing to where they need to be pointing the less value is extracted from them, especially after a drop where traffic is slightly higher. I need a URL redirect option or at least those custom nameservers and be able to set that as default. I will be attempting other domains here shortly but I can't keep relying on Namesilo support to change nameservers for me every time so please do get those features out soon!

We totally understand your problem with the current process, we are speeding up adding the NameServer change option to the site. Thank you for your feedback!

 

[Catch.club]

So you can't say if you use Sav or not?

as of today SAV is not processing our orders.

You need to add a lot more backorder partners, because here is my experience after catching 23 domains using Catch.club:

All these 23 domains were caught either by Dropcatch, Snapnames/Namejet or Dropcatch discount club.

When my bid was 58 USD or lower, then in these cases Dropcatch discount club caught the domain.
When my bid was 59 USD or higher, then in these cases Dropcatch or Snapnames/Namejet caught the domain.

So the other backorder platforms have little to no chance. Maybe you need to add a lot more smaller backorder partners, if it is possible at all.

yes, we are working adding more platforms.

 

[Charybdis]

It's not about multiple people bidding during the catch.club pre-order and therefore the domain name being auctioned off.
If more than one person bids at the time of pre-order, the domain is auctioned.
This is a different matter.
I was the only bidder for domains already on Catch.Club and pre-orders had already been successfully created.

If you win the pre-order, the domains will appear in the "Approved Backorders" section.
And your offer is sent to all partners of Catch.club.

If the company that catch the domain name is one of the partners of Catch.club and puts this domain name up for auction; Catch.club will notify you of this and you can participate in the auction via Catch.club.

6 successful domain name backorders were catch up by catch.club's partners.
However, domain names were catch by partners (DropCaths SnapNames etc.) and put up for auction.

No need to log into DropCatch to participate in the auction.
You can already participate in this auction via Catch.Club.
I was already winning the auctions and there were between 24 and 40 hours before the auctions ended.
Although the auction period is not over, Catch.Club says the auction is over and you lost the auction.
That's the problem.

It works for me, maybe you have an issue directly with the catch.club website, try to clear your browser cache and cookies, and / or try a different web browser. Use the latest version of Chrome, Firefox, Safari etc.

Their chat support is not that great, even godaddy is better than them. Try to contact their email support

@Catch.club
I have tried catch.club months ago but there was an issue where if i place manually a backorder i cant find the dropping domain using the dashboard and the issue is still there now

many of the domains I want are not in their inventory. I contacted CS via chat, and he was confused. asked me to wait to contact their IT team, but so far the domain has not been added

We should add the domain ourselves without depending on inventory

Same story here, didn't receive any reply from their IT team, what's the point of the system if we can't backorder what we want

1: We work with the official pending delete list, so all domains in that status should be available. It could be that some of the filters cause this issue, sent you PM to investigate the case.

2: We have a cut off time of 0900 UTC, which also can be a reason why you cannot place backorder for domains dropping.

We will be improving upon this, thank you for the feedback @xeroox

I have an Account Fund Balance in namesilo
but when i log in to catch.club using my namesilo credentials, my funds in namesilo don't sync
So what are the benefits of logging in with my namesilo account?

I got this answer
Yes, it is part of NameSilo but a separate platform, also a separate fund
Because it's not the same platform, it's an external platform part of NameSilo
It's that you do not need to create new credentials

This makes me have to add fund twice, very ineffective

Yes, information is correct above, this way your balance at NameSilo and balance at Catch.club does not effect each other.

The same is valid with credit limits. Once you activated your Catch.club account the credit limit in your NameSilo account and Catch.club is independent, so it cannot happen that your credit limit on Catch.club will impact the bid limits on NameSilo.

So it is more or less 2 independent platform, at CC we decided to use the payment system of NameSilo so you do not need to add and verify cards on 2 platforms, but it is enough add credit cards on NameSilo only.

 

[Catch.club]

As requested by many of you, we have removed the public bid details, so you can place bids now without anyone else being able to see what domains are being backordered with us.

We also have a filter to show 1 word English domains in Pending delete status.

boded.net 1d 22h 2m Pending Delete
coauthors.net 0d 22h 2m Pending Delete
deathless.net 1d 22h 2m Pending Delete
homiest.net 0d 22h 2m Pending Delete
phenylalanine.net 1d 22h 2m Pending Delete
sewings.com 1d 22h 2m Pending Delete
thriftiest.net 1d 22h 2m Pending Delete
yearlings.net 0d 22h 2m Pending Delete

You can see the 1 word .com English domains directly at https://catch.club/auctions

We update the list daily.

Cool site, why does this site use .SVG for the logo and the main namesilo site doesn't

 

[Catch.club]

@King Thank you for the feedback! Catch.club is new page, so it was easy to go with the right option. NameSilo redesign also on the way! Feedback forwarded to dev team

 

[El Matador]

How does it work when you bid on dropcatch for under $59?
Namebright can still take the domain name from you if you have the highest bid?

I checked dictionnary keywords in French and Spanish. The results are really weird to be honest. It is rather a waste of time at the moment.

 

[Charybdis]

@Catch.club I don't understand fully your offer.

Exactly who are your dropcatch partners? On your website you display 6 logos as your partners, but in the text you write that you have 10 partners. Is DropCatch.com your partner?

I could manually backorder the same domain at these 10 dropcatch websites, do you provide a better pricing at Catch.club than ordering the same domain directly at your partners? Or is the only benefit that I save time?

1: yes, the bidding process is the same if you would place the bid directly on dropcatch. We are under the same ToS as other Dropcatch users.

2: thank you for the feedback, the word list is created automatically based on a dictionary which is matched with the pending delete list. We are working on making it better.

@Catch.club thanks and I have a question regarding the account credit.

Catch.club says that I have to prepay the full amount of my proxy bid in order to enter that proxy bid. So for instance if my proxy bid is 1000 USD, then I have to prepay 1000 USD as Namesilo.com credits.

What happens if I spend let's say only 200 USD, and then later I want to get back the remaining 800 USD as a refund, is it possible?

Actually prefund full bid amount is not necessary, if you have an account with domains in your NameSilo account associated with your Catch.club account we can increase your credit limit manually. Please just reach out to our support to get the limit increased so you do not need fully prefund the bid amount.

''What happens if I spend let's say only 200 USD, and then later I want to get back the remaining 800 USD as a refund, is it possible?''

-> balance refund request to payment source no problem, requesting the refund of 800 USD is not a problem. At NameSilo we deal with balance refund request on daily base, balance refund request on Catch.club is not different at all

@Catch.club didn't know that, support said that I must prepay the full amount. Yes I have domains in my namesilo account. I could have avoided paying the full proxy bid in advance.

I placed a proxy bid of 150 USD on a domain, and the system displays that my current bid is 8.99 USD (I am the only bidder).

But for example on Dropcatch the minimum bid is 59 USD.

When I place a bid on Catch.club, then will you backorder the domain at all of your dropcatch partners? What is the minimum proxy bid required for you to backorder the domain at all of your dropcatch partners?

I am asking because the merit of your system would be to place a backorder for a domain at all of your partners, so I want to make sure that you really backorder the domains at all places. What should I do to ensure that you backorder a given domain at all of your dropcatch partners, especially at Dropcatch.com and at other major dropcatch providers?

 

[Charybdis]

Something is wrong with the search. Currently I'm seeing 17 results only, without any filters applied. I visited the auctions page in incognito browser mode, I'm still seeing 17 results only. I didn't use any filters.

I saw a lot of domains a few hours ago. But sometimes I got 0 results, in that case I had to close the page and resubmit the filters.

Are you sure that your search function works correctly?

One more example:

I am searching for domains which contain the word "world", and I don't have any other filter turned on. I am getting 856 results. Some of them end with "world".

Now I only change one filter, to see domains only ending with "world", and at this time, I am getting zero results. But I have seen before that there are domains indeed ending with "world" in the list.

The search filters don't work properly.
