Terms

Plain-English terms for renting or buying a domain through SI Launch Pad.

How renting works

You pay the listed monthly rate in advance for the domain you're renting. Renting has a 3-month minimum term. During the rental, we point the domain's DNS wherever you want within one business day, and you use the domain as your own.

After the minimum term

Once the 3-month minimum is met, the rental continues month to month until either side ends it with 30 days' written notice.

Buyout

At any point during an active rental, you may buy the domain outright for the purchase price fixed at your rental's Start Date — 30 times the monthly rent rate you started at, even if our listed rent or purchase price changes later. Monthly payments already made do not count toward the purchase price unless we agree otherwise in writing. Once a rental ends, the buyout option ends with it; the domain may be re-rented or sold to someone else.

Buying outright

You don't have to rent first — every name can also be bought outright directly, at the purchase price shown on its page.

Making an offer

We don't consider a purchase offer below half of the listed purchase price. There's no such floor on a rental inquiry — tell us what you're looking for.

What's included

A rental or purchase covers the domain name itself. It does not include web hosting, email hosting, design, or content — you point the domain at infrastructure you already have or set up separately.

Questions

Use the inquiry form on any domain's page to ask about renting or buying it before committing.
