After checkout, the seller is notified to push the domain to your registrar account. Once the transfer is complete, your ownership is confirmed and the seller receives their payout. This protects buyers from non-delivery.

After payment, you'll receive a confirmation email with a link to track your transfer status. The seller typically pushes the domain within 1–7 days.
