A push is similar to a regular domain transfer, except that the domain is moved to another NameBright account.

To push a domain, you'll need to provide the email address and username of the destination NameBright account. The receiving account will have 5 days to accept the push (Transfers > Pushing In > Pending Inbound Push Requests) before it is cancelled.

It's a large process, and this is only a rough overview.

1. Purchase and request domain transfer at the new registrar

When you purchase a domain transfer, some of the registrars may let you to keep all the time remaining on your existing registration, plus you may get a FREE 1-year extension. After the payment is processed, the status of the domain at the new registrar will be set to Authorization Required. You will also receive an email from the new registrar containing Transaction ID and Security Code.

2. Request authorization code at current registrar.

Login to your current registrar account and request for 'authorization code request'. You have to turn off the domain protection before you can request authorization code from the current registrar. Following screen shows the link from my current registrar that gave the option to request authorization code.

3. Authorization code received from current registrar.

You'll receive an email from current registrar with Authorization code.

4. Begin the transfer from the new registrar using the authorization code.

Go to the new registrar and begin the transfer process. At this stage, the new registrar will display the Status as "Authorization required" and the Recommended Action as "Authorization - Begin transfer authorization"

Enter the authorization code that was received from the current registrar and complete this process. After this step, the new registrar will display the Status as"Pending Current Registrar approval" and the Recommended Action as "Accept transfer at current registrar"

5. Email Notification from current registrar.

You will get an email from the current registrar confirming your transfer request. You don't need to take any action if you want to accept the transfer. If you wish to cancel the transfer, follow the link from the email.

A final confirmation email from new registrar was received approximately 4 days after initiating the transfer at the current registrar. Please note that the current registrar has up to 5 days to release the transfer of the domain.

Choose how much time will pass before NameBright automatically logs you out. You can log out at any time using the “Logout” link at the top of the page.

We recommend a short interval for maximum security, especially if you plan to log in to your account from public or shared devices.

See a detailed record of settings changes, login attempts and more at the Account Security Log. If you've granted other users access to your account via the Linked Accounts feature, their actions will also show up here.

Note: This log shows changes made to your account, not individual domains. Each domain has its own change history visible on the domain settings page.
