How to Opt Out of Afternic Fast Transfer
Afternic is a platform for selling aftermarket domains. Unfortunately, it's possible for bad actors to attempt to opt your domains in for sale at Afternic, even if you've never used the platform.
Luckily, Porkbun has your back in these kinds of situations! Because of our Opt In Afternic Fast Transfer program, you have to manually approve the domain listings in order for them to actually be listed for sale on Afternic.
If you received notice that your domains were listed on Afternic and you want to opt out and keep your domains safe, here's how:
1
Log in. You should arrive at the Domain Management screen. If you're already logged in, click on ACCOUNT in the top-right corner and select Domain Management.
2
On the Domain Management page, click on the button labeled "Manage Pending Afternic Fast Transfer Opt Ins". This button should be located right above your list of domains.
Alternatively, you can check your email inbox for an email containing a "View Domains Pending Opt In" link, and click that link to open your account.
3
You'll be taken to the "Afternic Fast Transfer Opt In" page. On this page, you'll see the domain (or domains) that were submitted to be opted in for Afternic Fast Transfer.
Next to each domain you're opting out, select the radio button under "Opt Out". Once you've opted your domain(s) out, click on the "Submit" button.
4
A confirmation message will appear letting you know your domain(s) have been opted out of the Afternic Fast Transfer program.
5
If you have no plans to use Afternic for any of your domains, you can opt out of the program entirely so further attempts to list your domains will be automatically rejected. To do that, click on ACCOUNT on the top-right corner and click "Settings / Billing".
6
Scroll down to the "Account Security Settings" section and locate the option labeled "Afternic - Allow Transfer Opt-Ins". Click on the toggle switch to turn it red, disabling the setting.
That's it! Your domains have been opted out, and any future attempts to list them on Afternic will be automatically rejected. You can always revert that setting on your account and list your domains on Afternic in the future if you change your mind.
