Spaceship

Out of topic, sorry: apparently, you can transfer domain to spaceship, what about out of them? It's not supported for now as long as I know.

This post was moved from another topic by mods. For now, transfers can be processed manually by asking support team

I know many are interested in this. Is there any update on this?
Also, are there plans to have your own marketplace at Spaceship?
I am glad to see Spaceship folks active on NamePros and responding to questions and comments.
Thank you and best wishes,
Bob

No updates on Afternic implementation at the moment.
As for marketplace, yes, plan to have one and the work on it is in progress. Stay tuned!

Why every time after login popup about Tour?

Why every time after login popup about Tour?

Hello! Thank you for the feedback, I'll revisit the logic with the team, should not be the case for it to appear after every login

Hello, we know it's quite complex flow at the moment, spaceship is quite new and we are gradually adding necessary features and flows. Our dev teams are working on the possibility to transfer hosted domains in a regular way and we expect it to be released to production next month. Thank you for trying our products and sharing the feedback.

Change namecheap to spaceship and all the problems will be solved

Any plans @Marina Zh

That's the most important development I would say..

Hi! Yep, as @Edward Marukhian shared, the work on the marketplace is in progress. No ETA for now, but you can check our Roadmap for updates https://www.spaceship.com/roadmap/?feature=seller-hub
Additionally, we'll post updates here for the community as soon as the feature is released

That's wonderful news Marina! I appreciate all the features your team has added over the past year and also how fantastic Spaceship chat support team is!

One issue I am still having that is causing me a lot of trouble is the lack of the ability to paste a group of domains and manage just those domains. I have over 3,000 domains at Spaceship and right now I have to search through all 3,000 to find maybe 100 or 200 that I need to change the name servers for. Manually searching and clicking on large numbers of domains just for a name server change is a very grueling waste of our time.

The other issue is that I want to change the name servers for most of my domains to Name Pros but even when I manually click on a group of domains to change them and the name servers change, Namepros Mod tells me they checked and they couldn't verify ownership because I had have DNSSEC enabled on those domains, but I have never enabled had DNSSEC enabled on any of my domains and when I check them on my spaceship control panel they show DNSSEC 0 records.

Hello, it should be possible to find the domain names in bulk in our Domain Portfolio application, just enter the domains you need separated by comma, semicolon or space in application search option. We also plan to add filter by nameservers soon which can be helpful if the domains you want to update use the same NS settings.

As for DNSSEC, we have it enabled by default for all domains that are registered with us and pointed to spaceship DNS, but it gets disabled when switch to custom NS. I probably found your support case in our system, our team is currently looking for the root cause of the issue, they will update you once the issue is fixed for all affected domains.

How to Opt Out of 60-day Domain Transfer Lock at Spaceship.com? so it won't be locked for another 60 days after we transfer between accounts.

Hello! There is no 60-day domain transfer lock if you transfer if you transfer your domain internally, from one Spaceship account to another. It is not recognized as transfer by a registry, so the transfer lock is not triggered.

Thank you for your answer. So basically changing the Registrant's contact name and email at any time will not lock the transfer for 60 days?

Yes, it will not, the domains are opted-out from such lock by default.

You guys should be very aware that in spaceships TOS, they state grace renwal is that their discretion, if your domain is valuable enough they will take it immediately upon expiration on that exact expiry date. Recently someone I know online had this happen to them, they complained about it on twitter, and they were blocked. Grace renewal is at their discretion only, in their TOS, so be very careful. I can’t believe company is doing this in 2025, but that is the world we live in now.


“We may, but are not obligated to, offer a period of time after expiration (the ‘Reactivation Period’) during which you may renew your domain name registration. The availability, length, and terms of any such Reactivation Period are at our sole discretion. You agree that we shall not be liable for any failure to offer or maintain a Reactivation Period.”

We allow a 30 day grace period just like any other registrar. In fact you can renew your domain all the way up to just before pending delete period.

What our terms of service say and what we actually do as far as policy are two different things.

Grace renwal is there because even icann realizes life happens, but we have to be careful to support companies who do not support us back given they have been given the framework to allow grace to their customers, but if the name makes financial sense, they will just claim it for themselves, and I guess you can see your name in their sales reports when they sell it a few months later.

You did it last week to a friend, only after he noticed it and brought the matter to your attention, did you give them back. 90% of us would not even have noticed them gone. When they brought it up on twitter, they were blocked, doesn’t sound like transparency.

Here is an idea change your tos to say all domains will be given the 30 days grace, and not at your discretion. I’m sure that will make many here feel more comfortable.
