MediaOptions brokers a private deal. TrustTLD gives your domain a public page.
MediaOptions is a domain brokerage. You hand a domain to a broker, they run a confidential, negotiated sale on your behalf, and they take a commission when it closes. TrustTLD is a marketplace instead of a middleman: you list the domain yourself, ownership is verified before it goes live, and buyers follow the listing to wherever you’ve put it up for sale. Nothing is taken out of what it sells for.

Why sellers and buyers choose TrustTLD
Transparent TRUST Score
Every listing shows real signals — registration age, DNS/HTTP status, archive history — with the full component breakdown, not a black-box number.
Buy where it’s listed
Every listing links to the marketplace where the domain is actually for sale, so you buy through a checkout you already trust.
Verified or anonymous, your choice
Sellers choose how they appear — buyers always know which they're dealing with.
No forced auction
TrustTLD runs no auctions — you see the seller’s price, check the evidence, and buy on the marketplace they listed with.
Verdict
MediaOptions is worth its commission on a domain valuable enough to justify a broker's time. Below that, a verified public listing is free and takes nothing from the sale price.
