Open the Ownership tab on your name, click Send, enter the recipient's wallet, and approve each transaction. Send moves the ETH Address, Manager, and Owner roles to the same new wallet in one flow. Gas only.

Before you start — the three roles

A .eth name has three roles, and Send treats them as a bundle. Knowing which is which makes the rest of this article (and the wallet you need to be connected with) make sense.

Role	What it controls
Owner	The wallet that holds the name's NFT. Can transfer the name, change the Manager, and use Send.
Manager	The wallet that controls the name's records — it can change the ETH Address, set text records, and so on. Can hand off Manager to another wallet, but can't transfer the Owner.
ETH Address	The wallet the name points at. Funds sent to `yourname.eth` arrive here.

Quick check before you click: Send is Owner-only. If you're connected with the Manager wallet (or any wallet other than the Owner), the Send button won't show. Switch wallets, or use Edit Roles for independent role moves.

For wrapped names, the Manager role is merged into the Owner role on the ERC-1155 token contract — there's no separate Manager field. Subnames have only a Manager, never an Owner.

How to Send a name

Open the Ownership tab. Go to app.ens.domains and connect the Owner wallet. Search for your name, then open the Ownership tab.
Click Send and enter the recipient. Type the recipient's ENS name or 0x address.
Review and choose Reset profile. The summary shows which roles will move. Tick Reset profile to clear the name's records (avatar, social handles, wallet addresses, text records) on transfer — useful if you don't want personal info travelling with the name. Click Send, read the final warning, and click I understand.
Approve each transaction in your wallet. Click Open Wallet and approve the first. Most confirm in 1–2 blocks (12–24 seconds); busy networks can take longer. Click Next, approve the second, and so on. Order: ETH Address → Manager → Owner.

When all the role transactions land, the new addresses show on the Ownership tab.

Good to know

Send is Owner-only — only the Owner sees the button.
Send moves the ETH Address, Manager, and Owner to one new wallet — each role is its own transaction.
If the Manager or ETH Address is already on a different wallet than the Owner, Send only moves the Owner. The others stay. Use Edit Roles if you need to move them too.
Needs ETH on Ethereum Mainnet for gas — no other cost.
The ENS App only handles .eth names and onchain subnames. For project subnames like base.eth or uni.eth, use the project's own site. See What are project subnames?

Common questions

What's the difference between Send and Edit Roles?

Send moves all three roles to the same wallet in one flow — the usual choice when you're transferring the whole name. Edit Roles lets you set each role to a different wallet independently. Use Edit Roles when you want a split — for example, a cold wallet as Owner, a hot wallet as Manager.

Why weren't all three roles updated?

Send only moves roles that currently point at the Owner's wallet. If the Manager or ETH Address is already on a different wallet, those stay where they are. Use Edit Roles to move them separately — or, if you just want to bring the Manager back to your Owner wallet, see Sync Manager in the same article (a one-button shortcut for that case).

What does Reset profile do?

Clears all the name's records — wallet addresses, social handles, avatar, header, text records. Tick it when transferring to someone who wants a clean slate, or when you don't want personal info attached to the name after transfer.

Why don't I have a Manager?

Wrapped names don't have a separate Manager field. For wrapped names, the Manager role is merged into the Owner role on the ERC-1155 token contract. See Name Wrapper Overview. Subnames work the other way — they have only a Manager and no Owner.
