Dec 17, 2015 at 18:22 comment added Mikhail Katz Cody, thanks for this. I am not sure this is really about axiomatics though. There is an axiomatic approach to Robinson's framework, developed by Hrbacek, Nelson, and others. Here you find infinitesimals within the real number system itself. But Robinson constructs an extension of $\mathbb{R}$ by compactness theorem and transfer principle is a consequence of the fact that it is an elementary extension, whereas for ultrapowers the transfer principle is a consequence of Los' theorem. So in this sense you end up with transfer in either case. The key seems to be in saturation that's...
