The company generates revenue through multiple transaction structures, primarily through subscription models and direct-to-consumer sales. Clients utilize the services to purchase domain names, which may involve a one-time fee or an ongoing subscription for premium services. Each transaction can include various products, such as off-market domain acquisitions, auction participation, and SSL certificate purchases. Specific pricing plans for these services are structured to cater to varying business needs, offering flexibility in terms of investment.
