Docky

confirmed .uk

Low-cost standard drops and selected Dropzone extensions

Operated by GrepApps
Pending delete Early access not listed for .uk
Price & fees 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.
Auction rules 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.
Supported extensions 63 exact TLDs All 63 distinct extensions in the public pricing table. The live domain list shows a smaller subset; an extension's presence does not guarantee that a particular name can be ordered.

FAQ

.uk backorder questions
Where can I backorder a .uk domain?
Compare 9 listed services for .uk: Backorder.com, Catched, Docky, DomainNameAPI, DropCatch.ai, Dynadot, Nicsell, SnapNames, UKBackorder. Coverage comes from provider lists, named examples or an identified registry portfolio. Each card explains its basis; an extension listing does not guarantee eligibility for a particular domain. Unverified catalogues are listed separately.
Will a .uk backorder go to auction?
3 confirmed service routes use a public auction, 4 use a private auction among eligible order holders, and 1 accept a no-auction route. The exact outcome depends on which service catches the name and whether another customer ordered it.
Does backordering guarantee a .uk domain?
No. The current holder may renew, a registrar pre-release partner may sell it before the public drop, another catcher may win, or .uk registry eligibility rules may prevent delivery.
Should I compare the .uk renewal price before backordering?
Yes. A catch fee is only the acquisition cost. The winning registrar's renewal, transfer lock, account custody and auction fee can matter more over several years. Domain.Guru links the price board when a verified .uk market exists.
