How to Connect Your Domain to Afternic

Porkbun is proud to support Afternic's fast-transfer service. According to Afternic:

  • Fast transfer domains are listed with the largest domain resellers, so more potential buyers see it.
  • Fast transfer domains can be transferred immediately, which buyers love because they get immediate control of the domain after they buy it.

Connecting a domain to Afternic is a little tricky, but we'll show you exactly how. If you're looking for a simple, low-fee way to sell your domains, consider listing them on Porkbun's domain marketplace instead of (or in addition to) Afternic.

To enable fast transfer on a domain, you must add the domain at Afternic, then opt-in to fast transfer at Porkbun. Let's get started!

Adding your domain in Afternic

1
Log in to your Afternic account. In the side menu, click "Portfolio" and then "Add Domains".

2
Enter the domain name you would like to add, then click "Continue".

3
Enter a Buy Now price, Floor, and Minimum price to proceed. A minimum price is required in order to add the domain. Click on "Submit Domains" to continue.

This will add the domain to your Domain Portfolio. You can edit the asking price, as well as change the status of the listing from this page.

Next, you'll be asked to review your listings. If you need to edit the listing in any way, click the "Edit Listings" button. If all looks correct with your domain listing, click the button labeled "Submit for Processing".
