Open-source, self-hosted domain marketplace. For investors, brokers, and registrars who want to own their sales channel.
Demo · Features · Quick start · Roadmap · Contributing
The big domain marketplaces — Dan, Sedo, Afternic — take a 10–25% commission on every sale, lock you into their checkout, and own the buyer relationship.
DomainMarket flips that. Run it on a $5 VPS, list your portfolio under your own brand, and keep 100% of every sale.
- 🪙 No commission. It's your server.
- 🔐 No vendor lock-in. Export anytime. SQLite or MySQL. Your data.
- 🚀 SEO-first. Server-rendered Blade, JSON-LD Product schema, sitemap-ready.
- 🧠 No AI required. Related-domain engine works on tags + TLD + category similarity. Cheap to run.
- 🌍 No paid APIs. RDAP-first for WHOIS lookups. Free, modern, standards-compliant.
- 🎨 Admin panel out of the box. Filament v4 handles every CRUD action.
Not a SaaS. Not a "lite" version. The full thing, MIT-licensed.
Demo coming soon. For now, run it locally in 60 seconds — see Quick start.
