Accepting a Domain Name into Your Account
An account change occurs when an account owner moves a domain name from one account with us (the initiating account) to another (the receiving account). You need to have an account with us to complete the account change and accept the domain name.
When an account owner initiates an account change in his/her account, we email information about accepting the account change to the receiving account's owner. The email message might contain a transaction ID and security code (if applicable).
NOTE: Account changes expire after 10 days. However, the initiating account's owner can re-initiate it. For more information, see Moving a Domain Name Out of Your Account.
