We’re updated the way that sellers can suggest new prices for their domains. Firstly, we now allow sellers to set the price for their domains 20% higher or lower than our appraised price (we round the prices a little, so it may not be exactly 20%). You can only do this once a domain has […]
We’re back, and better than ever
We recently took 2 weeks off to redesign and rebuild all of Brandpa’s systems. And now we’re back, with plenty to share. Seller’s dashboard This has been rebuilt from the ground up with a tonne of refinements: We now tell you roughly how long a stage will take, e.g. how many days appraisal is currently […]
Temporary suspension of new domain submissions
Since our conception, Brandpa have been about quality not quantity. We’ve always looked at accepting only the best quality domains and creating great logos to accompany these names. During the past month we’ve received an unprecedented volume of domains: December 2017: 320 / week January 2018: 400 / week February 2018: 1080 / week and […]
Changes to how we accept domains
We’ve made a few changes to what domains we accept and how we process them. These are designed to help us appraise names more quickly and to keep our quality (and your sales) high. We now only accept dot com domains The statistics are clear: customers want dot-coms. Other TLDs are less likely to sell and […]

Sellers now have their own public profile page
All sellers now have a public page they can share, containing all of their domain names.
Introducing negotiation settings
Brandpa now allows sellers to choose how they want to handle negotiation of their domain names. In other words: what happens if someone makes an offer for less than your asking price? With these settings you can help us negotiate on your behalf more efficiently. Or if you prefer, you can refuse to accept anything […]
Social share directly from within your dashboard
We’re happy to announce that from today every seller can share their domains on Facebook and Twitter. What happens when you hit “Share” Once you hot one of the buttons, Brandpa will generate a post that can be posted on your Facebook or Twitter wall. Additionally, it’ll also add required hashtags so you don’t need […]
Add-on logo design
From today, we’re offering a separate add on logo design service for our clients. We’ve had a few enquiries from our clients who wanted more logo options with a domain name they purchased. Since we have logo designer in house, we decided to simplify their experience and offer this service as an alternative as well. […]
