How do I transfer my domain to you?
Transferring domains to us from a different registrar is simple. Follow the below directions below for the process.
- Unlock the domain name you’d like to transfer from your current domain registrar.
- Get an authorization code (also known as an EPP code or transfer key) from your current registrar. If the authorization code isn’t shown in your account dashboard or control panel, ask your current registrar to email it to you. NOTE: The authorization code isn’t necessary in all cases, such as when transferring country-code domains (ccTLDs).
- Verify the contact information associated with your domain name. Confirming your contact information ensures that you receive any communications sent to you by your current registrar during the domain transfer process.
