How do I change my marketplace autopay settings for auctions and backorders?

Updated: 2026/05/21Viewed times: 41464

Congratulations on winning your domain! 🎉 Don't worry about missing the payment deadline. Our Marketplace Autopay will automatically handle the payment for your wins of the order types below.

  • Expired domain auctions
  • Backorders
  • Backorder auctions
  • User auctions
  • Last chance auctions
  • Registry auctions
  • Premium domain auctions
All automatic charges are processed within 12 hours by default. Once selected, the system will charge your default primary payment method first. If no custom primary payment method is set, charges will be deducted from your account balance automatically.


To change your Marketplace Autopay payment method, follow these steps:

  1. Sign in to your Dynadot account.
  2. From the left side menu bar, select "Payments" and then "Default Marketplace Payment".
  3. (Optional) Check second place bidder autopay if you would like to autopay as the second-place bidder.
  4. In the Payment method section, set your preferred currency and payment method(s), as well as backup payment method(s).
  5. Click the "Save" button at the top right corner to save your changes.
NOTE:
  • Once selected, the system will charge your default primary payment method first. If no custom primary payment method is set, charges will be deducted from your account balance automatically. Payment will be made within 12 hours after your auction/backorder order is created.
  • You can set a First Backup and Second Backup payment method in case your default payment method failed due to insufficient funds. Alternatively, you can Prepay into your account to avoid this issue.
  • You can also enable auto-pay as the second-place bidder in the same settings page. If the highest bidder's order is cancelled, you will be automatically
    charged within 12 hours of the cancellation.
  • You cannot use different currencies or autopay methods for auctions and backorders-the same settings apply to both.
  • The payment method you choose for auction and backorder auto-pay orders is not the same payment method used for domain auto-renewals.
  • Failure to pay for won auctions or backorders may result in your account being banned from participating in future auctions and backorders.
