news NamePros Landers with Buy Now, Escrow.com integration, and much more

Hey, domain sellers!

We have a special surprise for you.

Continuing from last year (and last week), we have some exciting updates to share with you about NamePros Parking Landers!

First, consider this:

You price your domain name at $2,500. For years, hundreds of interested buyers want to buy it, but the price is too high for them. They don't even try to contact you because they don't realize that the price is negotiable or may change. Years later, you decide to lower the price to $995. How many previously-interested buyers would buy it at this lowered price? You’d never know — until now!

With our new Buy Now options, you can finally contact those previous buyers to increase your sales opportunities.

Here’s how:

Our landers have an option that requires buyers to confirm their email address before they can see the price. Once confirmed, the price is available to them and their email address is available to you. Simple and effective. Learn more on DNW.com.

Want to see more styles and options? Visit our live demo domains!

Now, let’s talk new features!​

• Buy Now: Add a Buy button with a sales price and payment options for buyers to purchase your domains.
  • Escrow.com (Recommended): Starts an Escrow.com transaction for you and allows the buyer to pay immediately.
  • PayPal: Creates a PayPal transaction for the buyer to pay directly to your PayPal account.
  • Email: You and the buyer use email to choose a payment method (e.g., crypto), discuss lease-to-own (LTO) options, etc.
• Location: Country, region (e.g., state or province), and locality (e.g., city, town, or village) of your inquirers to help you understand where they are located, the best time to contact them, etc.
• Bulk Management: Set options on multiple domains at the same time: prices, payment methods, appearance, etc. using our website's interface or your favorite spreadsheet software (e.g., Google Sheets).
  • Bulk Edit: Export, Edit, and Upload to apply your changes all at once.
• Exports: Download a list of your domains and their settings, customizations, and inquiries, including buyers’ email addresses, offers, etc. (CSV format.)
• Domain Verification: Verify your domains by using any of these methods: name servers (NS), CNAME, or TXT records.
• Supersonic Speed Boost: Our landers already loaded blazingly fast, but now they’re even faster — a powerful increase in performance!
  • For techies: Go, Redis, and Elastic (previously only: PHP and MySQL)

Wait, there’s more!

Tell us the features that you want for NamePros Parking because we’re adding new features all year!

Features coming soon:​

• Display Images: Bring your landers to life with domain logos, accepted payment methods (e.g., Visa and Mastercard), relevant photos (e.g., puppies on awesomepaw-some domains), paint a picture of what the domain can become, etc. You could even include your company's logo, your headshot, etc.
  • Tip: Use ChatGPT to create a visually-inspiring image for each of your domains!
  • Pro Tip: Images with transparent backgrounds look amazing!
• Custom Descriptions: Add your own descriptions to your landers, along with text formatting and template variables. Learn more on TheDomains.com.
• About Seller (You): Tell visitors about yourself or your company with advanced text styling. Your user card is the perfect place to showcase your experience (e.g., total sales, awards, certifications, notable past clients), your company's details (e.g., slogan, phone number, business hours, languages spoken), etc.
• Minimum Offers: Save time by setting a minimum offer amount to manage buyers’ expectations. Set it as a specific amount or a percentage of the buy-now price (e.g., 50% or 100% to match it exactly).

• Inquiry notifications: Choose whether to be notified only about inquiries that have confirmed their email address, or all inquiries including unconfirmed inquiries and offers below your chosen minimum, sent by email. Regardless of this setting, all inquiries are accessible on the website.
• Reach Unreachable Buyers: Contact buyers with one-click using proven deliverability and reachability to request that they email you and add your email address to their email's address book and allowlist, by using our "Mark as Unreachable" button.
• Auto-Protection From Domain Damage: Protect the value of your domains by blocking email abuse that could cause them to be banned and blocklisted. This feature requires using our nameservers that auto-set SPF and DMARC records for you.

  • Pro Tip: Link it to a NamePros parked domain that lists all your domains in its expanded description. Example: BothDescrips.com is linked to from all of our demo domains (e.g., MakeInquiry.com). Bonus: Real-world example.
• Descriptions with links: Add links to any text in descriptions, including short descriptions, expanded descriptions, and the seller description.
• Descriptions with custom FAQs: Add questions and answers (Q&As) to your expanded descriptions. These fancy theme-based FAQs expand and collapse to keep the page simple and polished.
• Exclusive VIP benefits: Special VIP recognition for VIP members in the confidence-building area and footer of landers. Less disclaimers on landers (e.g., removes the popup tooltip disclaimers for descriptions). And more!
• Catch-All Inbox: A unified mailbox of all emails sent to your parked domains.
• ️ Update: We created a dedicated page for new features and updates. Moving forward, visit this page to see what's new.

Most recent updates and fixes: View Everything

PRO TIP: There is a common misconception about how many domain sales happen because of marketplaces. In reality, many sales would still happen (and do happen) without the help of a marketplace, so NamePros is providing a free solution to sell domains and you keep 100% of your profit.

Our for-sale parking service is 100% free:​

• No upfront fees
• No monthly fees
• No commission (0%)
• No upgraded account necessary
• 100% of your sales belong to you!

How does all that sound?

Tip: Quickly access your parking dashboard using the "Sell" dropdown menu at the top.

Hi @Bravo Mod Team,

I'm considering using NP for some domains and would appreciate it if you could address a few questions. Apologies if these have already been answered in earlier discussions:

1.) Does NP provide tools or features to promote listings?

2.) Can portfolios be made private here?

3.) Can MAO and BIN be enabled together? If yes, would that setting apply portfolio-wide (as Atom unfortunately does) or could it be enabled for individual listings?

4.) How would the sale of a domain that’s still under a 60-day transfer lock be handled here? Assuming the buyer agreed to wait, would the domain be pushed to NP's holding account at the registrar, the seller paid immediately, and the domain passed on to the buyer once the lock period ends?

5.) Are NP listings synchronized across any registrars or other marketplaces? If not, are there plans to implement this?

6.) What kind of customer support does NP provide? Do landing pages have chat support enabled, a contact number, or other options?

7.) What information do buyers and sellers see/receive?

8.) What is NP’s role or position in transactions? Does NP act as a middleman or as the buyer?

9.) Related to the above, how is invoicing handled—who issues the invoice on both ends, and who are the listed parties?

10.) What payment options are available besides Escrow and PayPal?

Thanks in advance.

Someone here forgot it's a free service.

@Elad n, I'm confused, are you @Bravo Mod Team?

None of my questions were addressed to you. Mind your damn business.

Go read the landers dedicated thread first.

 

[NicTraders]

Does NamePros Parking have any good Black Friday deals?

Perhaps a 50% discount off their already free landers?...

 

[Vivere]

Go read the landers dedicated thread first.

Look, no matter how ridiculous you think the questions are, how obvious the answers may be, or whether they’ve already been addressed on any page here, I had/have every right to ask them, and I chose to ask them for reasons best known to me.

@Bravo Mod Team has every right to respond as they see fit—or not. That’s their call.

Unless you’re part of @Bravo Mod Team, your dismissive input was completely uncalled for, and this still doesn't concern you.

I generally keep things very civil on here, but I’m happy to make exceptions as needed.

 

[Bertrell]

Of the providers that do support integration, which should we add first? These include:

1. Stripe

Thanks for asking! We've bolded your suggestions to make it easier for us to spot them.

Responses, in order:

1. This is on our roadmap. Until then, we have free promotional sections on our forums that can be utilized, including our forums marketplace, where you can direct interested buyers to visit your domains on NamePros Landers.
2. Portfolios are private by default. Once we add our "Portfolio Website" feature, which will allow you to display all of your domains in a searchable interface to potential buyers, there will be a setting to make it private or public.
3. Yes, this is the default for priced domains once the buyer's email address is confirmed. Soon, we'll add a setting to hide the offer option. Just about every setting can be applied portfolio-wide (globally) or individually, including this new upcoming setting.
4. Our service is similar to handling deals that you receive through email (e.g., WHOIS), but we're building a lot of features that improve the success rate and experience for both sellers and buyers.
   • In your example, you have the freedom to handle it however you and the buyer would like. As two possibilities, you could push the domain to the buyer's account at the same registrar, or use Escrow.com's Concierge, which will take possession of the domain for you, pay you, and then transfer the domain to the buyer once that's possible.
5. We'd love to provide listing synchronization as an option. Thanks for suggesting it.
6. With our service, sellers and their chosen payment method(s) provide the customer support. Email is the default contact method, but you can also add a contact phone number (e.g., yours or your broker's).
   • If you use a service like Escrow.com or PayPal, then those services will also assist your buyers with various questions and concerns. Escrow.com is able to answer domain-related questions better than PayPal.
   • Thanks for suggesting a chat widget. It's only a matter of time before we add it if sellers want it.
7. Buyers and sellers:
   • Buyers are able to see your NamePros User Card unless you disable it. Buyers can also see your parking-specific email addresses (only after confirming their own email address) by replying to their inquiry email or through your payment providers if enabled (e.g., Escrow.com may show your Escrow.com email address to the buyer).
   • Sellers can see a lot more about buyers, such as: their current time and timezone, location, neighborhood's average income and how crowded it is, ISP, hostname domain, connection type (e.g., Cable/DSL, Cellular, Corporate, or Satellite), the type of inquirer (e.g., residential, business, traveler, government, or college), whether they're using an anonymizing service (e.g., VPN or proxy), etc.
8. You can think of us as a technology facilitator. We facilitate the transaction to take place through world-class and worry-free technology that connects buyers and sellers, and then we don't have an active role in the transactions. This provides you with immense flexibility and a truly 100% free service, forever.
9. Invoices are rarely needed, as payment receipts are generally sufficient in most jurisdictions, but you or your payment provider would supply the invoice.
10. Email is the third option, which allows you to use any payment provider you'd like. We'll be adding Atom and Stripe next. Any others that you'd like us to add?

We appreciate being able to answer questions in public, and we're also equally happy to answer questions in private if you'd prefer.

Let us know if you have any additional questions or suggestions.

Thank you for this thorough response, @Bravo Mod Team. I especially appreciate that you understood the intent behind some of my questions (i.e. that they were more suggestive than purely inquisitive), and you addressed everything in a clear and corresponding order.

We'll be adding Atom and Stripe next. Any others that you'd like us to add?

The options DAN had --- international wire transfer and payoneer integration (if possible).

We appreciate being able to answer questions in public, and we're also equally happy to answer questions in private if you'd prefer.

Thanks! If I have any further questions, I'll reach out here or in private.

 

[ResoluteDomains]

Would it be possible to put in a numeric boundary check so that a lead doesnt, inadvertantly , offer a dollar less than a trillion dollars for a domain? I am not sure what the max boundary should be.

Dont get me wrong, its not that I wouldnt mind going down as having the largest domain sale ever....

 

[Future Sensors]

offer a dollar less than a trillion dollars for a domain?

Never accept the first offer, because then the buyer will think they paid too much.

 

[ResoluteDomains]

Never accept the first offer, because then the buyer will think they paid too much.

I'm going to definitely hold out for that 13-figure sale!

Another issue is that they need to add "commas" to the price amount on the Lander page..

[Eminent Domain Names]

I’m getting very tempted to give em a shot!

 

[Silentptnr]

I'm doing a test using the NP lander. I changed the NS to what is required and the NP parking page is working. My question is, how long does it take for the domain to go from Unverified to Verified?
