How do I bid in a Premium User Auction?

Updated: 2025/12/08Viewed times: 3698
Dynadot's Premium User Auctions allow you to bid on high-quality domains listed by other users. To place a bid in a Premium User Auction, please follow these steps:
  1. Sign in to your Dynadot account.
  2. Find the domain you want to bid on in our Premium User Auctions.
  3. Click on the domain name itself, or the "Bid Now" button.
  4. In the price box, enter the proxy bid amount and click on the "Place Bid" button.
  5. Click the "Confirm" button on the pop-up window to confirm your bid and that you will pay for this auction if you win.

Auction Terms:

  • A bid deposit of $100 or 5% of the bid amount (whichever is greater) is required to participate in our Premium User Auctions.
  • If a bid is placed in the last 5 minutes of an auction, the auction time will be extended for another 5 minutes. There is no limit to the number of times an auction may be extended before the auction's final "end time" is set.
  • Auction winners have 3 calendar days to complete payment. If payment isn't received within that time, the bid deposit (greater of $100 or 5%) will be forfeited as a non-payment fee.
  • Domains won in our Premium User Auctions will be placed in "Buy Lock" status for 30 days.
  • Domains won in our Premium User Auctions will not be renewed with the order, and any renewal cost will not be included in the final price.
  • To place a bid over $2,000, a deposit of 10% of the bid amount is required. Ensure your account balance can cover this fee, which will be locked until you are outbid or the order is paid. If you win the auction and choose not to pay for the order, the deposit will be forfeited as a non-payment fee.
