What Is a Domain Push?

A domain push is a domain move between accounts at the same registrar without changing the domain’s registrar. It is often used to pass a domain to another person, team, or company within the same registrar’s system.

In simple terms, a domain push is an “internal domain transfer” within one registrar, not a transfer to a different registrar. The exact conditions, timelines, and requirements (such as recipient confirmation or extra security checks) depend on the registrar’s policies and the domain zone rules.

Popular Questions About Domain Push

  • What is a domain push in simple words?

    It is moving a domain to another account at the same registrar. The registrar does not change — only the account that manages the domain changes.

  • How is domain push different from a domain transfer?

    A domain transfer moves a domain to a different registrar. A domain push moves a domain within the same registrar between accounts. These are different processes with different rules.

  • Does the registrant change during a domain push?

    It depends on how the registrar implements the process. Sometimes only the managing account changes, and registrant details can be updated separately. In other cases, a push may include steps to update contact details.
