Why doesn't the domain I'd like to purchase come with an installment option?

Many of our domains within the Atom marketplace do have an installment option. It’s at the discretion of the domain owner to determine if they want to list their domain with an installment option. If that specific domain does not have an installment option, that means that the domain owner has chosen not to allow it.

In some situations, if the domain owner knows that there’s somebody ready to purchase their domain, they are willing to turn on the installment option. 

You can reach out to our Customer Service team if the installment option is very important and critical to the purchase of that domain and we can work with the seller if they’re willing to allow installment options in that situation.
