A fixed advanced broker fee is payment of £29.00 is payable on application after completion of our online form and a fixed fee commission charge of 15% of the total budget buying price (this will normally be your maximum price) and upon a successful purchase. An additional commission fee of 10% is added if we negotiate a purchase price below your maximum budget. (The extra is calculated only on the difference between agreed purchase price and your maximum budget). WE HAVE DELIBERATELY DESIGNED OUR COMMISSION STRUCTURE SO THE BONUS FEE IS ONLY APPLICABLE ON THE MONEY SAVED FOR OUR CLIENTS. 
Additional fees may apply and if so are payable beforehand, if we need assistance from a registrar (NOT GENERALLY THE CASE), but we may advise you to to instruct us to do this (Example: Problems with owner verification - these fees if applicable are generally fixed and no more than £35.00- £50.00) You are not obligated to pay this additional fee but we may deem to your advantage in acquiring the domain and security to do so. We will only recommend this fee in unusual circumstances and charged to you at the registrars standard fee with no additional broker charges added.
Domain/s we are instructed to acquire may be offered for sale on other platforms. You can instruct us for our professional services to acquire domains from other platforms such as Sedo, where they may be offered for sale.
We would normally expect to receive your payment for the domain within 24hours of a sale agreement so the transaction and transfer can proceed. If we are successful in agreeing a domain sale within your budget and you withdraw or fail to pay for the domain within fourteen days, then our commission fee is due upon demand and as if sold under our normal acquisition terms. Additional fees will apply if we are re-instructed after invoicing under these circumstances.
Additional administration charges may also apply for legal documents and certificates, and domain transfer fees.
The seller will receive payment less fees after all domain/s new ownership details have been successfully transferred and payment received for the domain/s with domain broker UK. Transactions up to £1000.00 can be paid into our paypal account and over £1000 into our business bank account or Escrow account. In the event of high value domain sales we will agree, if preferred, to third party solicitors acting as agents to hold and disperse monies to the appropriate parties. All solicitor fees are charged to the seller or buyer or both as agreed between parties, Domain broker or their agents are not liable for any solicitor charges unless a prior agreement in contract and signed by domain broker's CEO has been negotiated as part of any agreement.
