title: Park a domain or list it for sale
description: Configure a parked landing page or put a domain on the marketplace with a minimum offer.
---

A **parked** domain shows a configurable landing page — useful while you're sitting on a name, or testing positioning. A **for-sale** domain shows a "make an offer" page that funnels leads to your inbox via the DomainGenius marketplace.

You can run both at once. The for-sale CTA can sit on top of any parked template.

## Park

```bash
curl -X PUT "https://api.domaingenius.com.au/api/v1/domains/example.com.au/parked" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DG_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "template": "minimal-coral",
    "headline": "Coming soon",
    "show_logo": true
  }'
```

Templates: `minimal-coral` (default), `minimal-dark`, `coming-soon`, `under-construction`. Each renders at the apex; a wildcard A record + Worker handles the request.

## List for sale

```bash
curl -X PUT "https://api.domaingenius.com.au/api/v1/domains/example.com.au/for-sale" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DG_KEY" \
  -d '{
    "min_offer_cents": 50000,
    "buy_now_cents": 250000
  }'
```

`min_offer_cents` is what shows on the page. Lower offers are silently rejected by the form. `buy_now_cents` is optional — if set, a Buy Now button appears that takes payment instantly.

The domain shows up on the [DG marketplace](https://domaingenius.com.au/market) and in `GET /api/v1/market`.

## Receive offers

Offers come in via two channels:

- Email to the org's billing contact.
- The dashboard at [`/dashboard/domains/<name>/offers`](https://app.domaingenius.com.au/dashboard).

Negotiation happens in-thread. Accept an offer; we charge the buyer's card, transfer the domain into a new org under their account, and send you the proceeds (minus 5% marketplace fee) on the next payout.

## Unlist

```bash
curl -X DELETE "https://api.domaingenius.com.au/api/v1/domains/example.com.au/for-sale" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DG_KEY"
```

The marketplace listing disappears immediately. In-flight offers stay open until you decline them.
