Go to cspr.name and use the search bar to look up the name you want.

Depending on the name’s status, you’ll see one of the following options:

Buy now: The name is available for purchase.

Make offer: The name is already owned by someone else and is listed on CSPR.market. (Secondary sales are not yet available)

Contact us: The name is either protected or shorter than 3 characters and requires special handling. Names shorter than 3 characters are priced individually and may not be available for public sale.

‍

Let’s assume the name you chose is available for purchase. It only takes a couple of clicks from here.

Note that prices vary by length:

• 5+ characters: 250 CSPR/year
• 4 characters: 750 CSPR/year
• 3 characters: 5000 CSPR/year
• Under 3 characters: custom pricing
  
  

• First, type the name you would like to purchase and select “Buy now.” (If the name is available)

• Select the duration for which you want to register the name.

• Sign the transaction with your Casper Wallet

Make sure your wallet has some extra CSPR to pay for the transaction costs.

When you complete the purchase, the name is yours for the duration of your purchase. You can renew it before expiration, or let it lapse.

‍

Once you own the NFT, the name is not yet linked to your Casper account. To assign it:

1. Select “Owned by me” from the top right corner. This will take you to My names, where all your purchased names are listed.
   
   
2. Select the name you wish to assign to your account
   
   
3. Enter the public key of the account you want to link it to
   
   
4. Confirm the assignment
   
   

Now, anyone using a dApp or wallet that supports CSPR.name will be able to interact with your account using your chosen name instead of your full address.

Example: Instead of sending to 01de5...beef9, they can now send directly to alice.cspr.

If you want your name to be displayed instead of your public key across supported dApps, you’ll need to make it primary.

To set a name as your primary:

1. Go to the name’s page in your dashboard
   
   
2. Click “Make Primary”
   
   
3. Sign the transaction with your wallet

Even if someone else assigns a name to your account, you can still choose to set it as your primary, ownership of the name isn’t required to display it.

Secondary sales and trades will be available via cspr.market, stay tuned for announcements.
