I tried to transfer a domain into WPMU DEV for a client and the transfer was blocked as a “premium domain.” The docs say premium domains are not transferable, but they do not define what “premium” means, which TLDs are affected, who sets that status, or whether any exceptions exist. This creates avoidable friction for resellers who consolidate domains for clients.
Please either enable incoming transfers for premium domains where the registry allows it, or publish clear criteria for what counts as premium by TLD, including who decides and the pricing or transfer implications. Also surface transfer eligibility in the UI and API at search and during the transfer flow, and provide an alternative path if transfers truly cannot be supported.
This prevents failed migrations and embarrasment as resellers, helps us sell appropriately, and keeps more domains and revenue with WPMU DEV. I can share the specific case if helpful.
