Sell a TLD
Sell your
Freename TLD
Selling a Freename TLD is not like selling a .com domain. The asset is onchain, the buyer universe is narrower, the documentation requirements are specific, and most conventional domain brokers have no framework for handling the transaction correctly.
That is the problem freename.broker was built to solve. We are a specialist Freename broker — focused exclusively on connecting Freename TLD owners with the corporate buyers, funds, and brand operators who have a direct strategic reason to acquire the right extension.
Our process covers everything from initial valuation through to onchain settlement. You remain in the background while we handle outreach, negotiation, and documentation. When a serious offer arrives, you make the decision. We handle the rest.
There are no public listings. No broadcast to a marketplace. Every engagement is discreet, direct, and documented by email from the first contact to the final transaction hash.
The process
How we sell
your Freename TLD
Four steps. Fully documented. Nothing by phone. From your first message to us through to the onchain hash in your hands.
Submit
Send us your Freename TLD, proof of ownership from your Freename wallet, and your asking price or pricing expectations. We review every submission personally and respond within 48 hours to confirm whether we can represent the asset.
Valuation
We produce a short valuation memo covering string quality, the buyer universe for your specific extension, comparable Freename and Web3 domain transactions, and royalty potential. We agree a target price range and brokerage terms before any outreach begins.
Outreach
We identify and approach the right corporate targets for your string. That means direct, professional email outreach to brand managers, digital officers, and investment analysts at companies and funds for whom your TLD has genuine strategic value. We manage all communication and keep you informed at every stage.
Settlement
When a buyer is ready to commit, they send a formal purchase confirmation by email. The TLD transfers via Freename. Payment is confirmed. The onchain transaction hash is delivered to both parties. You receive the complete documentation stack: buyer email, Freename receipt, blockchain hash.
Valuation
How we value
your TLD
Freename TLD valuation has no public benchmark. There is no index, no price feed, no comparable sales database that is openly accessible. Pricing is opaque by nature — which means it can go badly wrong in both directions. Sellers underprice and leave significant value on the table. Sellers overprice and find no buyers at all.
Our valuation framework applies five criteria to every Freename TLD we assess. The result is a price range — not a single number — that reflects the realistic market for the asset given current conditions, the buyer universe, and the time horizon the seller is working with.
The valuation is free. It carries no commitment. If you disagree with our assessment, you are under no obligation to engage us as your broker. We would rather give you an honest number upfront than waste both our time on an asset we cannot sell at the price you need.
Length, memorability, and dictionary status. Single-word generics outperform invented strings. Shorter extensions command higher premiums. The string is the foundation of everything.
How many plausible corporate buyers exist for this extension? A wide buyer universe creates competitive tension and supports a higher floor price. A narrow one requires a more targeted approach.
We track Freename and Web3 domain sales to build a private comparable dataset. Your TLD is benchmarked against what has actually traded, not theoretical valuations.
Freename TLDs generate royalty income from second-level domain registrations. Current and projected registration volume is factored into the valuation, particularly for extensions with active use cases.
Urgency affects price. A seller who needs to close quickly will accept a different price than one who can wait for the right buyer. We factor in your timeline and advise accordingly.
Price ranges
Indicative
market tiers
These are indicative ranges based on our observations of the Freename TLD market. They are not guarantees. Every TLD is assessed individually.
Niche, invented, or low-demand strings with a limited buyer universe and minimal royalty income. Still sellable with the right outreach to the right niche buyer.
Industry-relevant generic strings with multiple plausible corporate buyers. The most active segment of the Freename TLD market for serious brokerage transactions.
High-demand generics with broad applicability, a large buyer universe, and meaningful royalty upside. Requires patient, targeted outreach to the right corporate decision-makers.
Single-word, category-defining extensions acquired by major brands or investment funds. Rare transactions requiring a long runway and direct access to senior decision-makers.
What we need
To get started,
prepare the following
When you contact us to sell a Freename TLD, having the following information ready will allow us to respond with a substantive assessment within 48 hours.
01 — Required
Your TLD string
The exact extension you hold on Freename — for example, .studio or .finance. If you hold multiple TLDs and want to sell more than one, list them all. We assess each individually.
02 — Required
Proof of ownership
A screenshot or export from your Freename wallet confirming you hold the TLD. We verify ownership before beginning any engagement. This protects both parties and ensures we are working with the actual asset holder.
03 — Optional
Asking price
Your target price or price range, if you have one. If you are open to a broker valuation, simply say so. We will produce our own assessment regardless and discuss it with you before agreeing terms.
04 — Optional
Registration date
When you registered the TLD on Freename. Tenure can be a relevant data point for certain buyers, particularly those who view early registration as evidence of market foresight.
05 — Optional
Second-level domain count
The number of second-level domains currently registered under your TLD, if any. This is direct evidence of royalty income and active use — both of which support a higher valuation.
06 — Optional
Prior offers or interest
If you have previously received any offers or expressions of interest in your TLD — even informal ones — this is useful context. It tells us something about the existing buyer universe and helps us calibrate outreach.
