About Credits

The Basics

What Are Credits?

Credits are DomainWorld's internal currency. Instead of charging you per-transaction fees or monthly subscriptions, you buy credits when you need them and spend them on the services you use. No surprises, no recurring charges, no middlemen taking a cut of your sale.

One credit is worth approximately $0.05 USD. You can buy them in packages or earn them as bonuses.

Credits Expire — Use Them

Purchased credits expire 365 days after purchase. That's a full year to use them.

Bonus & free credits (registration welcome, domain purchase bonuses) expire 90 days after they're granted. They're a gift — use them while they're fresh.

Credits are used in first-in, first-out order. The oldest credits get spent first, so nothing expires unnecessarily.

What You Cannot Do With Credits

✕ Trade or transfer credits — Credits cannot be sent to another user or traded between accounts at this time.
✕ Cash out or refund — Credits cannot be converted back to cash at this time. All credit purchases are final.
✕ Pay for domain registrations — Domain registrations and transfers are paid with your credit card at domains.domainworld.com. Credits are for DomainWorld marketplace and AI services only.
✕ Extend expiration — Expiration dates are fixed at the time credits are issued. They cannot be extended or paused at this time.
✕ Use across other platforms — Credits are valid only on DomainWorld.com, DomainWorld.ai, and connected DomainWorld services at this time.

Why This Way?

No Commission. No Subscription. No Middlemen.

Most domain marketplaces take 10–20% of your sale. Some charge monthly fees whether you sell or not. Then there's the subscription trap — you sign up, forget about it, and six months later you're still paying for something you stopped using. Sound familiar?

DomainWorld charges no commissions and has no subscriptions. Nothing to forget to cancel. Nothing quietly draining your account. You buy credits when you need them, use them when you're ready, and that's it.

We believe if you sell a $10,000 domain, that's your $10,000 — not ours. Credits keep the lights on. Your sale stays yours.
