How does buying obtain.co.za work? You agree on a price with the owner. The owner then sends you payment details and transfers the domain once payment is received. The transaction takes place directly between you and the owner.
Can I secure the purchase? Yes. Arrange an escrow with the owner. We then hold the money until the transfer.
How long does the transfer take? Usually a few days after payment. There is no auth code for this extension: your registrar requests the transfer and the current owner acknowledges it (transfer ack).
