How to deliver external domain sale

Published: July 31, 2023


Delivering an external domain sale from Epik involves a few more steps compared to an internal domain sale. Here’s the general process:

  1. The domain is listed on the Epik Marketplace.
  2. An individual buys the said domain and the transfer.
  3. Epik alerts the seller that they need to provide the AuthCode.
  4. The seller provides the AuthCode, and the transfer is put in place.
  5. If the seller, for some reason (usually a transfer lock), refuses to transfer the domain to Epik, there’s only one option: push at the internal registrar. The buyer needs to agree to this procedure.
  6. Once the domain is in Epik’s possession, either by transfer or an internal push, Epik delivers it to the buyer.
  7. Finally, Epik releases the seller’s funds after confirming that both parties are happy.
