Some names are
never listed.
- 01No upfront payment — 5% only on a closed acquisition
- 02Confidential from first contact, NDA built into the form
- 03Closing through neutral escrow or on-chain settlement
From inquiry to on-chain transfer, without exposure.
- 01
Inquiry
Tell us the name — or the strategy — you're pursuing. Two minutes, binds both sides to confidentiality, costs nothing.
- 02
Confidential consultation
We return within one business day with comparable sales, owner profile, a realistic price band, and a recommended approach.
- 03
Owner outreach & negotiation
We approach the current owner without revealing who you are. Buyer identity stays shielded until you decide otherwise.
- 04
Escrow closing
Funds sit with neutral escrow; the name transfers on-chain; escrow releases payment. Our 5% fee settles at closing — and only then.
When the marketplace can't help.
Most names can be bought in a few clicks on this site. Concierge is for the ones that can't: no listing, an owner who ignores cold offers, and a name you actually need. A mandate, an approach, and a closing.
Named acquisition
You know exactly which name you need. We locate the owner, negotiate under a shielded identity, and structure the closing.
Defensive portfolio
Variations, misspellings, and adjacent names that protect a brand. We map the landscape and acquire in a coordinated sweep.
Strategic guidance
Not sure what to hold? We advise on naming strategy for products, subsidiaries, and treasury identity — grounded in real sales data.
Registration & custody setup
For unregistered names: registration, resolver and record configuration, renewal policy, and transfer into your custody arrangement.
Every mandate starts with real data, not guesswork.
Before we approach an owner, we check the Ethereum registry directly and cross-reference public secondary-market activity — listings, standing offers, and comparable closings. You get a realistic price band before any outreach begins.
Most institutional-grade names never appear on a public listing at all. That's where our owner-outreach process replaces a marketplace search.
Not publicly listed — owner outreach required. This is the typical profile for a strong institutional name: held privately, no active listing, real demand visible only in standing offers and past comparable sales.
success fee. Nothing before closing.
No retainers, no consultation charges, no minimums. Our fee is 5% of the gross purchase price, due only on a successful closing — the ENS name transferred on-chain to your wallet and the seller's payment confirmed through escrow. If a deal doesn't close, you owe nothing.
The fee covers owner identification and outreach, negotiation, deal structuring, and closing coordination. Full definitions — including the anti-circumvention clause — are in our Terms of Service.
How closings settle
Buyer and seller agree on a settlement venue deal by deal. Funds release only after the on-chain transfer is confirmed — we never take custody of your funds or assets.
- YourNamesETH & USDC
Our own marketplace, and the default. The name and the payment move in the same transaction, so neither side is ever holding the other's asset — and we never take custody of either.
- GrailsETH & USDC
ENS-native settlement. Useful when the counterparty already trades there, and supports private, name-specific deals.
- OpenSeaETH only
The most widely recognised venue. Settles in ETH exclusively — a reasonable fallback when a seller insists on it.
Every closing ends the same way: the ENS name transfers on-chain to a wallet you control.
From crypto-native to mainstream infrastructure.
PayPal and Venmo users can send crypto straight to an ENS name.
This includes PYUSD, sent to a name instead of a raw address. It's the clearest sign yet that ENS is becoming everyday payment infrastructure.
Read the PayPal announcementNamed by the SEC as a “digital tool,” not a security.
Release Nos. 33-11412 and 34-105020 cite ENS domain names as functional infrastructure. Federal regulators rarely name a protocol this specifically.
