Big-ticket domains don't always close on BIN. A buyer who'd commit to $200/month for two years often won't write a $5,000 check upfront. Lease-to-Own turns that gap into a payment plan. Configure 2–120 month installments on any listing between $240 and $2M, set down payments from 1 to 50%, and let UD handle escrow, payments, and overdue enforcement automatically.
Standard 3% marketplace commission applies, deducted from each installment. No extra LTO fee. Domains stay in escrow until the buyer completes payments. If they default, DNS disables at 7 days overdue, the agreement terminates at 14, and the domain returns to the seller.
What you can do
- Set payment plans up to 120 months — installments from $50/month, on any listing between $240 and $2M
- Configure down payments from 1 to 50% — default 20%, tune higher to reduce delinquency risk
- Collect 97% on every installment — standard 3% marketplace commission, no extra LTO fee
- Hand off escrow to UD — domain held until the buyer completes all payments, then released automatically
- Let overdue enforcement run automatically — DNS disabled at 7 days, agreement terminated at 14, domain returns to the seller
- Enable LTO per listing — toggle on for the deals where installments make sense, leave others as BIN
