** Flip Update **

[Ryan Ewen]

We have decided to close Flip down.

Just kidding!

The site is going to be migrated to our servers in the next 7 to 10 days.

We are stripping out the old DNS system and replacing with Cloudflare enterprise so there should be no more issues with speed. It is a big job as the current DNS is hard coded which is why we haven't attacked the project yet.

All currently restricted countries will be re-enabled. This will enable a more global platform and traffic will increase substantially.

The new site has been scoped and we have a dedicated designer who is creating a fresh brand identity and new look site which will likely go live in the first 2 weeks in November.

We are looking at a fully managed service meaning stripe integration, meta mask, VAT and invoicing - this enables us to ensure bidders c/c etc is on file and payment taken upon end of the auction.

You can expect a quality on par with brandable which will hopefully increase trust, exposure and ultimately sales!

Brandable will have a focus on end users and will be widely marketed so that is the platform to be to achieve the best sales prices.

You can still list your domains on the flip marketplace should that be preferred and you can also send your domain to auction from within brandable.

That timeline sounds very ambitious!

I wish you the very best of luck for a successful redevelopment and launch.

Random stat: Excluding anomalies, March tends to be the month with the highest number of (reported) sales.

Yes - perhaps but we have a lot more resources now that brandable is less demanding.

Hopefully with the launch of both sites we can make October, November and December the best months!

There are likely to be 2 options.

Self Managed where feedback etc will count

Fully Managed where we provide payment gateways and manage the whole process
