Internal Domain Transfer Between Accounts

Last Updated: 2025-01-01 2 min read

Internal Domain Transfer Between Accounts

An internal transfer (also called an account-to-account transfer or push) moves a domain from one account to another within the same registrar. This does not involve changing registrars and is typically faster than a standard registrar transfer.

When You Need an Internal Transfer

Common scenarios include:

  • Selling a domain to another person who also has an account at 10Corp.
  • Moving domains between personal and business accounts.
  • Transferring management to a client, partner, or web developer.
  • Consolidating domains from multiple accounts into one.

How Internal Transfers Work at 10Corp

Step 1: Gather Account Information

The receiving account holder must provide their 10Corp account username or ID. Both parties should confirm they have active accounts.

Step 2: Initiate the Push

  1. Log in to the sending account at 10Corp.
  2. Navigate to Domains → My Domains.
  3. Select the domain you want to transfer.
  4. Look for Push Domain, Transfer to Another Account, or a similar option.
  5. Enter the receiving account’s username or ID.
  6. Confirm the transfer.

Step 3: Accept the Transfer

  1. The receiving account holder logs in to their 10Corp account.
  2. They will see a pending incoming transfer notification.
  3. They must accept the domain transfer to complete the process.

Important Considerations

  • Domain settings such as DNS records, nameservers, and lock status typically remain unchanged after an internal transfer.
  • WHOIS information should be updated by the new account holder after the transfer if the ownership details differ.
  • Services tied to the domain (like hosting or email) may need to be reassigned or repurchased under the new account.
  • Billing responsibility shifts to the receiving account for future renewals.

If the Option Is Not Available

If you do not see a push or internal transfer option, contact 10Corp support. Some domain extensions or account types may require manual processing.
