Price & feesStandard drops from $15Standard .us, .at and .xyz are listed at $15; .com, .net and .org at $19. Registration is included and payment is due only after acquisition. Selected listings also offer Dropzone access: check the quoted tier rather than treating an early-access amount as the standard drop price. Premium names and auctions are priced separately.
Auction rulesPublic auction when orders collideMultiple orders on a successfully caught domain trigger an auction open to other bidders, not only the original customers. Equal maximum bids favor the earlier bid. Late bids normally extend the closing time.

A TLD on this list means the provider publishes a catch path for the extension. It does not guarantee that every expiring name is orderable or that registry eligibility rules are satisfied.
Before you place the order
the operational details that decide whether a catch survivesCancellation
Cancel an order no later than one day before the domain's available date. Auction bids cannot be cancelled.
Delivery
Acquired domains are managed in your Docky account. Account-to-account pushes are free; transfers out follow extension-specific rules.
Cautions
- Many supported extensions have a 60-day transfer lock after registration.
- Premium renewal prices can differ substantially from standard prices.
- For .ly, Docky assists delivery to a Register.ly account. For .id, transfer out must be arranged before the final 10 days before expiry.
- Docky currently limits direct registrant changes for .is and .uk; consult its transfer and contact procedures before ordering.

Auction rules Public auction when orders collide A sole successful order is delivered at the backorder fee. Catched's terms say competing interest in the same caught name moves it into a public auction.

How this service works
Broad international backorder coverage with public per-TLD pages and no charge when the catch fails.
Identity Digital pre-release and ordinary drop registration
Pre-releaseRegistry windowPending delete Identity Digital pre-release route
Price & fees Shown per release Paid pre-release access and an ordinary registration attempt are different options. Check the selected option and total in your account; there is no single published backorder fee for the whole portfolio.
Auction rules Live release terms DomainCostClub does not publish a public customer-collision rule for this route. Read the name-level order terms before committing funds.
Supported extensions Identity Digital portfolio Extensions from Identity Digital's published portfolio. Check the individual domain in DomainCostClub: portfolio coverage does not mean every expiring name is available for pre-release.
How this service works
Backorders across the Identity Digital portfolio, with paid pre-release access for eligible names or a registration attempt when the name becomes publicly available.
A single registrar account plus selected registry-priority tiers
Registry windowPending delete Verified high-priority tier on eligible inventory
Price & fees Price shown per name Choose the standard backorder amount or, for eligible inventory, the optional higher-priced priority tier. The exact amount is displayed per domain before ordering; an early-access surcharge is not required for a standard drop attempt.
Auction rules Backorder auction on a tie A successful sole order receives the domain. Multiple backorders enter an auction restricted to eligible participants.
Supported extensions 228 exact TLDs Read from the live extension selector; availability still depends on the individual name appearing in the backorder list.
How this service works
Registrar-integrated backorders with a large live TLD selector, standard and high-priority paths, and delivery into a Dynadot account.
FAQ
Docky backorder questionsHow much does backordering with Docky cost?
Standard drops from $15. Standard .us, .at and .xyz are listed at $15; .com, .net and .org at $19. Registration is included and payment is due only after acquisition. Selected listings also offer Dropzone access: check the quoted tier rather than treating an early-access amount as the standard drop price. Premium names and auctions are priced separately. A backorder is not a guaranteed acquisition, and a contested name can follow the service's auction rule: public auction when orders collide.
Which TLDs does Docky support?
The public source currently enumerates 63 supported extensions. Domain.Guru reproduces that exact checked list below; individual-name eligibility and registry restrictions can still differ.
What happens if several people backorder the same name at Docky?
Public auction when orders collide. Multiple orders on a successfully caught domain trigger an auction open to other bidders, not only the original customers. Equal maximum bids favor the earlier bid. Late bids normally extend the closing time.
Does Docky support early access or pre-release names?
Dropzone on 5 listed extensions. The .io, .ai, .me, .pro and .info price rows explicitly include variable DropZone fees. Check the individual listing for availability and timing; this is not a published portfolio-wide early-access offer.
