How to Push a Domain Into Another Account

Need to push a domain into another account at Porkbun? No problem!

Prepare Your Domain for Transfer

Let’s check to make sure your domain is ready to be transferred. Before you can push domain ownership to another account, follow these steps:

1

Log in to your Porkbun account. 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

Find the domain you wish to push into another account. Click "Details" to the far right, then "Push Domain" next to Account Transfer in the grey box that opens below.

3

Change the username field from your username to the account username to which you wish to push the domain. You also have the option to leave a message to be delivered if, for instance, you’re changing domain ownership to another party. A common message is: "don't forget to check and update this domain's contacts." For your reference, please see our instructions at the beginning of this article about how to change domain contact information.

Once you're ready to submit the push request, click "Submit."
