Guideline for Managing Domain Transfers

Background

This guideline is designed to streamline domain transfers across various TLDs and to reduce administrative tasks post-transfer.

 

Adding P-Handles to Transfer Orders

Importance:

Including P-Handles during the transfer process allows our system to automatically update the P-Handles upon successful transfer.

Additionally, with the domain associated with the P-Handles, the system locks the domain automatically.

Benefit:

Decreases the number of domains listed under 'domains without transfer lock', ensuring efficient domain management.

 

Reminder for Bulk Domain Transfers

Action Needed:
For every domain you are transferring, ensure you add all necessary P-Handles before submitting the transfer order. For specific TLD requirements, refer to the Dashboard or consult your Account Manager.

Reasons:

This helps avoid a multitude of support tickets and prevents unnecessary email broadcasts regarding urgent update requests.

Automatic domain locking occurs upon handle assignment, saving considerable working hours by reducing manual interventions post-transfer.

Procedure:
Assigning a predefined contact set takes less than 5 seconds. If you need to search for a specific handle, it might take up to 20 seconds. This minor time investment upfront greatly streamlines post-transfer processes.

Handle Selection:
It's crucial to decide on which contact handles to use in coordination with the Client and the Account Manager before initiating the transfer.
