Now Autotransferring and Paying in 5 Days — GoDaddy Auctions

Easier transfers and faster payments.

I sold the domain name EnglishDesk.com on Go Daddy a week ago, and have benefited first hand from changes made to GoDaddy Auctions.

Domain Name News first wrote regarding the changes a few weeks ago.

For a domain name sold through GoDaddy Auctions that is also registered at GoDaddy, the domain is transferred and payment processed within five days.

I listed the domain with Go Daddy Premium Listings. This let’s people buy a domain directly and get it instantly transferred into their account.

Additionally, Premium Listing domains are also available within GoDaddy Auctions at their “buy now” prices.

Until now, when someone bought a fixed price listing through GoDaddy Auctions there was still manual transfer process. I’ve been frustrated with a manual transfer in the past and almost felt it worth paying the higher premium commission to automated transfer.

Kudos to GoDaddy for making this change.
