② Domain name transfer registrar transfer
Domain name transfer refers to changing the registrar of the domain name, that is, the domain name is transferred from the current registrar to another registrar, and then another registrar provides related services for the domain name. In the domain name transaction, the domain name is transferred from the original registrar (the seller's account) to the new registrar (the buyer's account), and the domain name delivery is completed.
The advantage of trading domain names through domain name transfer is that the buyer does not need to have an account with the current registrar of the domain name, and can choose a preferred registrar account to receive the domain name. But the disadvantage is also obvious, that is, the general domain name transfer takes 5-7 days. Compared with domain name push, domain name transfer is a time-consuming transfer method. It is gratifying that some mainstream domain name registrars are now supporting instant transfer. On the premise that both registrars support, the domain name can be transferred within a few minutes.
Advantages: The buyer does not need to have an account with the current registrar of the domain name, and can choose a preferred registrar account to receive the domain name.
Disadvantages: Unless the current registrar of the domain name supports instant transfer; it generally takes 5-7 days to complete the transfer.
Note: According to ICANN regulations, the domain name is automatically renewed for one year after the transfer, so when the domain name is submitted for transfer, the new registrar will charge the one-year renewal fee as the domain name transfer fee
