## FAQ

**How long does it take to transfer a domain?**
Most transfers complete within 3-7 business days after payment verification. We handle everything and transfer the domain to your registrar of choice — GoDaddy, Namecheap, or wherever you prefer.

**What happens after I complete my purchase?**
After your purchase is complete:
- You'll receive an order confirmation email immediately
- Our team will initiate the domain transfer within 1 business day
- You'll receive transfer instructions and/or login credentials via email
- Once transferred, you'll have full control of your new domain
We'll be in touch throughout the process to ensure a smooth transfer.

**Why are premium domains more expensive than regular domains?**
Premium domains are valued based on brandability, keyword value, length, industry relevance, and comparable sales data. Like real estate, the best digital locations command higher prices — and appreciate over time.

**Are there any additional fees?**
The price you see is the price you pay for the domain itself. However, please note:
- Your registrar may charge annual renewal fees (typically $10-$50/year depending on TLD)
- Wire transfers may incur bank fees from your financial institution
- International transactions may be subject to currency conversion fees
We do not charge any hidden fees or commissions on top of the listed price.
