How AEserver Marketplace Works?

AEserver Marketplace is a curated venue for buying and selling premium .ae and other UAE-region domains. Buyers pay AEserver directly through their client area. The seller confirms the sale, hands over the EPP code and a signed transfer declaration, and AEserver moves the domain to the buyer inside our system. The seller payout is then settled through escrow.com. Buyer protection: AEserver holds the payment and refunds in full if the seller doesn’t accept in time. Seller protection: escrow.com guarantees the payout once the domain is delivered.

Buying a domain #

For buyers, the whole flow happens inside AEserver. You never need to register at escrow.com, click any external links, or deal with a third-party service.

Use the search box, character-length filter, and price range to narrow down. Every listing shows the asking price in your selected currency (AED or USD); switch at the top of the page and prices reformat instantly.

The detail page shows the seller, the price in both currencies, a verified seller badge, and a “Purchase protection” panel that summarises the buyer-protection flow. If anything is unclear, the Need help? WhatsApp panel on the right gets you a real person in business hours.

“Buy now” takes you into your AEserver client area. If you don’t have an account yet, register, it takes about a minute. An invoice is generated for the listed price.

Your money sits with AEserver, not with the seller. The seller is notified through their dashboard and has up to 7 days to accept the sale and hand over the domain. There’s nothing for you to do in this window; we drive the process from here.

Once the seller accepts and submits the EPP code plus the signed transfer declaration, AEserver moves the domain to your AEserver account internally. No registrar switch, no DNS downtime, no auth-code dance on your side. You’ll see it in My Domains, ready to manage like any other domain in your portfolio.

Selling a domain #

Only domains registered at AEserver under your account can be listed on the marketplace. We don’t accept domains from third-party registrars. Sellers from anywhere in the world are welcome; payouts run through your own escrow.com account.

From your client area, go to My Marketplace. The first time you visit, you’ll be asked to set up your escrow.com payout email: this is where you’ll be paid for every sale, and AEserver routes the payout there automatically.

Enter the email tied to your escrow.com account (or the one you’ll use to register, if you don’t have one yet) and click Save. We send you a confirmation link to make sure you actually control that inbox.

Pick a domain from your portfolio, choose a currency (AED or USD), and set an asking price. That’s it: no minimum offer, no auction setup, just a clean Buy-Now listing.

The AEserver team reviews every listing within one business day. Most go live as-is; a small number get a quick price-sanity message before they’re approved. Once approved, the listing is visible to the world and indexable by search engines.

When a buyer pays for your listing, a new row appears in the Sold tab inside My Marketplace. Open it, review the details, and click Accept to confirm you’re ready to transfer the domain. You have up to 7 days to accept.

The moment you accept, AEserver opens the escrow.com transaction in your name and funds it. In the same Sold tab, provide two things:

1. The EPP code (auth code) for the domain. You can generate it from My Domains if you don’t have it on hand.
2. The signed transfer declaration. AEserver auto-generates a UAE-style PDF in the Sold tab; download it, sign, and upload it back.

Once AEserver verifies both, we push the domain to the buyer’s AEserver account internally. The transfer is same-day, no external registrar handoff, no DNS downtime.

Right after the transfer completes, AEserver triggers your escrow.com payout. You’ll receive an email from escrow.com with the transaction link. Everything from that point (identity check, choosing the withdrawal method, receiving funds) happens inside your escrow.com account; AEserver doesn’t see or handle the payout itself. Kindly refer to the Escrow.com’s Terms of Services

Trust & security #

Buyer protection: AEserver holds the payment #

When you pay for a listing, the money is held by AEserver, not the seller. We only release the domain to you once the seller has accepted, provided the EPP code, and signed the transfer declaration. If the seller doesn’t accept the sale within 7 days, you get an automatic full refund: no support ticket required. For any other issue (wrong domain, anomaly after transfer, etc.), contact AEserver support; we mediate every dispute and act as the neutral party between buyer and seller.

Seller protection: escrow.com guarantees the payout #

Once you accept a sale, AEserver opens an escrow.com transaction with escrow.com, the world’s largest regulated online escrow service (licensed in California, USA), and funds it before you hand over the domain. By the time you provide the EPP code and signed declaration, the money is already sitting in escrow.com, neutral and protected. The payout is guaranteed by an independent third party, not by AEserver’s promise.

Domains never leave AEserver during transfer #

Both buyer and seller keep the domain at AEserver throughout. The seller provides the EPP code as a formal hand-over, AEserver verifies it, and the registrant change happens internally. No external registrar push, no DNS downtime, no waiting on a gaining-registrar’s polling window.
