The web templates are used for the confirmation forms at mydomainprovider.com. That is the branded environment in which your customers accept changes, transfers and validations. The email templates are sent in HTML format …

IRTP-C

On December 1, 2016, the Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy will be updated to IRTP-C. ICANN designed this policy to prevent domain name theft. We are not entirely satisfied how the policy has evolved.

This email covers the following topics:

Summary of the IRTP-C;
Key Concepts;
Affected Operations;
Required Actions;
IRTP-C maintenance window.

Domain Transfer Service

Transferring large amounts of domains manually can be quite a hassle. And with the updated Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy (IRTP-C) approaching, this process will be bound to even more rules and technical requirements. Instead of devoting all of your time figuring out which rules do and …

Sure such authentication platforms are not new. Like when you apply for a .BANK domain name you have to go through a vetting process, as only registered banks can order a domain name …
