A marketplace for Handshake TLDs. Buy a premium name outright, browse a fixed-price catalog, or bid in aftermarket auctions. Buyers transact in USD and do not need to own HNS to make an offer.
A single shared inventory and deal-management backend serves all three surfaces.
Premium TLD sales and offers on high-value names.
Searchable catalog with fixed-price listings and bundles.
Timed auctions for already-owned TLDs.
Illustrative sample listings. Availability, ownership, and pricing are confirmed per listing in writing before any transaction — these entries do not represent verified holdings.
Native Handshake auctions and resale auctions of already-owned TLDs are handled as distinct transaction types with separate workflows.
Timed auctions for TLDs already owned by a seller. The workflow below is the designed system. Bidding is not live — register interest and you will be notified when it opens.
Seller submits an owned TLD with a reserve, start time, and closing time. Listing authority is verified before publication.
Bidders place USD-denominated bids. Bid history and current standing bid are visible to all participants.
Highest bid above reserve wins. Closing status and time are displayed on the listing throughout.
Winner is notified and a deal record is created for settlement.
Payment settles through a supported pathway. Ownership transfers only after the Handshake transfer process completes — never before.
We never mark ownership transferred before the Handshake transfer completes, and we never expose or export private wallet keys.
Find a TLD from the catalog or request a specific name. Prices are USD-facing; owning HNS is not required to make an offer.
Your submission creates a deal record with your details, the TLD, and your proposed terms.
We confirm ownership and listing authority for that specific TLD, and confirm the asking price in writing.
Your offer is presented for approval. An offer is not binding and reserves nothing until it is accepted in writing.
Payment settles through a supported pathway, then the Handshake transfer process runs. Ownership moves only on completion.
Every submission creates a deal record reviewed by a human. Nothing is reserved or binding until accepted.
