What happens to my domain after the reverse auction ends?
If your domain does not sell, it will be deleted and enter redemption.

For Buyers
Can I buy any domain listed on NameLiquidate.com?
If the domain is listed on NameLiquidate.com, you can purchase it immediately. As the domain is located at Epik, you will receive ownership immediately after payment.
Is my proxy bid visible to other buyers?
Yes. Your bid is visible to the public. Other bidders on the same domain may be aware of your bids, and be notified via email if you outbid them. To avoid losing the domain to other bidders, it's important to act fast.
I changed my mind about buying a domain, is there a refund policy?
Refunds are not offered for liquidation sales; once a purchase is made, it's expected to be honored as agreed upon.
Why did I lose the bid, even though I was the highest bidder at the end of the auction?
Even as the top bidder, you might lose the bid if you don't have a verified payment method on file, or enough Epik credit to cover the bid listed on your NameLiquidate bidding page. Before you start bidding, you’ll want to verify that your payment method is good to go.
Can I pay for a bid after the auction ends?
Placing a domain name in your cart does not remove the domain from the NameLiquidate market until it is fully paid. In order for your bid to be accepted and awarded, you must have a valid payment method or Epik account credit to cover the cost, and complete the purchase.
Can I lose the auction even though I was the highest bidder?
Yes. Other buyers can secure an immediate win on any auction using the Buy It Now (BIN) option.
