Sold a couple of domains on flippa and need to send them to the buyers.

How do you do this normally to avoid costs?

First time I'm doing this. Domains are expiring soon (11 days)

The easiest and fastest way is to ask the buyer to create an account at the same registrar (it is free) and "push" the domains to him.

Provide the buyer with the Authorization (Auth) Code. It's free for you to provide this code, and they pay a fee to their own registrar which includes a whole year added to the registration period.

How this transaction happens? What if after transfer the buyer doesn't pay? Because I see it's hand to hand business with no platform between(sale listing). Can anyone please explain the process?

Thanks

Unless you're using an escrow service to handle the sale, one party will always need to trust the other.

I'd make him pay before you send the auth code, but you are a bit tight on time for that.
Alternatively, use an escrow service as has been mentioned.

where are domains registered at the moment? if your registrar support then you can push them.. most of the registrars support free push.

Generally how the transaction happens? I mean who steps before? Payment or transfer. How to trust. Please suggest.

Domain pushing is an easy way since the buyers’ and sellers’ domain registrar is one and the same. Domain pushing is an immediate process but the registration that is received by the buyer is valid only for the remaining days until the upcoming renewal.
