Are GMB Premium and LinkQuiver the same kind of catalog?

In principle, yes: expired domains whose name still carries a Google Business listing, to buy back at registrar price. The difference lies in scope (LinkQuiver mostly covers .fr, GMB Premium announces 118 countries), in the pricing model (pay per domain versus subscription) and in what you can do with the domain afterwards inside the tool.

Yes. Neither sells the domain: both send you to your registrar. Nothing stops you cross-checking the catalogs.

Why are .fr town names a problem?

AFNIC reserves them for local authorities. Technical checks (DNS, RDAP, WHOIS) report them as available, but the registration is refused. LinkQuiver removes them from the catalog at import and checks again at unlock. GMB Premium does not announce an equivalent filter.

How much does an unlock cost on LinkQuiver?

€1 to €5 with the Starter or Business plan, €1.70 to €8.30 on a free account. Every plan includes free unlocks: 1 per month on free, 10 on Starter, 30 on Business. Availability is checked right before charging: a domain gone in the meantime costs nothing.

What is checked before an unlock?

The domain’s real availability (DNS, RDAP, then a WHOIS provider), and the AFNIC municipality list for .fr and .re. If either fails, nothing is charged.

Where do the figures on this page come from?

LinkQuiver figures come from our database on 25 August 2026. GMB Premium figures come from its public pages (homepage, features, pricing, FAQ) read the same day. If something has changed, write to us and we will fix it.

Which one?

Pick GMB Premium

if you want the biggest catalog (190,214 domains, 118 countries) and if a monthly subscription fits your budget.

Pick LinkQuiver

if you mostly work in .fr, if you want to pay per domain with no subscription, and if the domain then has to become a link-selling site, inside the same tool.

Nothing stops you using both. In both cases you buy the domain at your own registrar.

What LinkQuiver does differently

5 differences that change what you pay.

Town filter

French town and town-hall names are removed before you see them

AFNIC reserves every .fr that matches the name of a French municipality. DNS, RDAP and WHOIS all answer "available". The registrar rejects the registration. LinkQuiver checks every .fr and .re against the INSEE list of municipalities since 1943, including hyphen-less variants and prefixes such as ville-, mairie-, cc-, agglo-. The domain is dropped at import, then checked again at unlock time.

Which means: you never pay for a domain that cannot be registered.

GMB Premium: no filter of this kind among the 14 listed on its features page.

Price

No subscription to get started

Free account, 1 free unlock per month, then €1.70 to €8.30 per domain with a top-up from €20 excl. VAT. Top-ups do not expire. With the Starter plan (€49 excl. VAT/month): 10 free unlocks, then €1 to €5 each. Business plan (€89 excl. VAT/month): 30 free unlocks.

Which means: 3 domains cost you 3 domains, not a month of subscription.

GMB Premium: subscription required, from €49/month (50 credits) to €499/month (1,500 credits). A reveal costs 1 to 5 credits. 5 to 10 free credits at signup.

Freshness

The catalog grows every day

Between 740 and 816 domains added per day over the last 10 days, weekends included. 5,587 over 7 days, 14,293 over 30 days.

Which means: a domain that dropped on Tuesday is visible on Tuesday, not the following Monday.

GMB Premium: catalog updated every Monday, according to its homepage.

Filters

17 filters, including two GMB Premium does not list

DA (Moz) and the number of Wayback snapshots. Plus the usual ones: TF, CF, RD, BL, listing sector and country, extension, maximum cost, minimum rating, review count, claimed or unclaimed listing, Google indexation, date added. Views can be saved, and each view can send a daily email alert.

Which means: you can ask for "a .fr seen on Wayback for 10 years, DA 15, a 4.6 listing nobody claimed" in one click.

GMB Premium: 14 filters, including three LinkQuiver does not have: linked social networks, historical traffic, open or closed listing status.

After purchase

The domain is only the first step

In the same account: content restoration from Wayback (Web Resurrect), WordPress site creation, metrics tracking, listing on 30+ link-selling platforms, centralised orders.

Which means: you do not export a CSV to three other tools to bring the domain to life.

GMB Premium: stops at the domain purchase, plus a marketplace of ready-built sites and auction backorders from the Pro plan (€99/month).

To be fair

Where GMB Premium is ahead.

Volume and countries.: 190,214 domains and 118 countries announced, against 41,424 domains and 60 countries on LinkQuiver. For .pl, .com.br or .com.au, go there.
Listing history.: GMB Premium announces snapshots of past activity: reviews, posts, photos, opening hours. LinkQuiver shows the listing as it stands: name, address, category, rating, review count, claimed or not. No post history.
Spanish.: Interface and data in EN, FR and ES. LinkQuiver is in FR and EN.

The town filter, in detail

Why "available" does not mean "registrable" in .fr.

AFNIC’s naming policy, stemming from decree 2007-162, reserves for local authorities every .fr that matches the name of a municipality, alone or preceded by an institutional prefix such as ville- or mairie-. That reservation lives in the registration policy, not in DNS. A tool that tests availability through DNS, RDAP or WHOIS sees "available". The registration is then refused unless the local authority provides proof.

LinkQuiver keeps a canonical list of municipality names since 1943 (INSEE official geographic code), former municipalities and mergers included. Every .fr and .re goes through it at import, with hyphen-less variants and institutional prefixes. The domain is flagged "AFNIC reserved" and never enters the catalog. At unlock time, the same check runs a second time, before anything is charged.

The real subject is not AFNIC. It is a catalog that tells "available" from "registrable" before charging you.
