Atom.com’s ccTLD Marketplaces are built to sell strong, trusted country-code top-level domains to international buyers. Currently, we have marketplaces for ccTLDS from:
India
The UK
Canada
Germany
Australia
The accepted ccTLDs are: .in, .co.in, .co.uk, .uk, com.au, .au, .ca, and .de
As these marketplaces are Uncurated, all Plus or Premium domains with relevant ccTLDs will automatically be accepted for the corresponding marketplace (.in for India, .co.uk for UK, etc).
In the instance that a domain is accepted to the Sapphire Marketplace and a ccTLD Marketplace, it will be listed on both. All domains will also be listed on our main marketplaces, with the strongest .in, .co.in, .co.uk, .uk, com.au, .au, .ca, and .de domains now eligible for Premium.
The ccTLD marketplaces offer exposure for ccTLD domains, with additional marketing on top of standard Plus levels, additional remarketing to potential buyers, and in-country marketing. Each marketplace is built to facilitate sales, with trusted payment methods for each country and prices in local currency. The German Marketplace will also feature German-language domains, while the Indian Marketplace will feature domains in Hindi, and the French Marketplace will support search for French-language domains.
Sellers are notified when their domains are selected for additional marketplaces such as ccTLD or Sapphire.
ccTLD Basics
Atom's ccTLD Marketplaces are for all .in, .co.in, .co.uk, .uk, com.au, .au, .ca, and .de domains. Other popular and trusted local domain extensions may be considered.
The ccTLD Marketplaces are not curated. All domains with one of the TLDs listed above are eligible for the ccTLD Marketplace connected with that extension as long as our Terms and Conditions are also complied with and the domains are listed as Plus or Premium.
Plus domains listed on the ccTLD Marketplaces have to be exclusive to Atom, where relevant name servers must be pointed to Atom.com Name Servers.
Domains that contain real Hindi words spelled out in Latin script, domains that contain real German words, and domains that contain real French words will be highly discoverable in their respective marketplaces.
Strong single-English-word domains with one of the ccTLDs required for these marketplaces may also be listed on Sapphire.
ccTLD domains are selected from Premium and Plus listings -- this is automatic, you do not need to submit to the ccTLD Marketplaces.
Name servers must be pointed toward Atom.com Name Servers for all ccTLD Marketplace domains.
ccTLD Terms and Conditions
Your domains remain Plus or Premium for the purposes of sale. Terms and conditions for sellers and buyers can be found below:

Acceptance for ccTLD Marketplaces
When you submit domain names to Atom.com and choose Plus or Premium as your desired listing level they will also be considered for our ccTLD Marketplaces. Selection for these is automatic. Our real-data trained algorithm accurately identifies .in, .co.in, .co.uk, .uk, com.au, .au, .ca, and .de domains and pushes them to the relevant ccTLD Marketplace.
If you select Premium your domain will also need to be chosen for Premium. This is a partially manual process and can take a few business days, with around an 6% acceptance rate. If you want the best chance of a domain making it to a ccTLD Marketplace, choose Plus as your second choice when you submit domains to Premium.
Once a domain has been chosen for a ccTLD Marketplace, the relevant name servers must be pointed to Atom. This is because we put significant marketing spend behind ccTLD listings. If name servers for Plus domains are removed the domain will simply be removed from the ccTLD Marketplace.
