If you have two services under your account, you can move a single domain from one service to another without any downtime for your end-users.

To move your domain, www.example.com from Service A to Service B

1. Add a wildcard domain to Service B, i.e. *.example.com.
2. Remove www.example.com from Service A. The wildcard domain in Service B will capture any requests for www.example.com.
3. Add www.example.com to Service B
4. Remove the wildcard domain

  Does this procedure still work even if "Service A" has many domains that we do not want to go over to "Service B"?
  
  Another way to ask this question is, "Do specific listed domains always supersede wildcards?"

  Hi Andrew, 
  
  Domain will be linked to service until you decide to remove it. We suggest using wildcards to catch subdomains and domains by `new service` just after deleting from the old one.
