Domain transfer

Move your domain and gain a year

Every transfer adds twelve months to whatever time is already left. Your site and email keep running throughout, because the records move before the domain does.

Enter the domain exactly as it is registered today, including the extension.

Typical registry completion time

Four steps, mostly waiting

The parts that take time are enforced by the registry, not by us. Everything on our side happens the day you submit.

  1. Unlock at your current registrar

    Log into whoever holds the domain now and switch off the registrar lock. It is usually one toggle in the domain settings.

  2. Request the auth code

    Ask them for the EPP or authorisation code. Most registrars email it within minutes, though some take up to a day.

  3. Start the transfer here

    Enter the domain and the code, and pay for the transfer year. We submit the request to the registry the same day.

  4. Approve and wait

    You will get a confirmation email. Approve it and the registry completes the move, typically within five to seven days.

  • WHOIS privacy

    Your name, address and phone number stay out of the public registry, on every eligible extension.

  • Full DNS control

    A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT and SRV records, edited from the client area with changes applied immediately.

  • Registrar lock

    Enabled by default so nobody can move the domain away without your authorisation code.

  • Email forwarding

    Point addresses on your domain to an inbox you already use, before you set up full mailboxes.

  • Unlimited subdomains

    Create as many as your project needs, each pointing wherever you like.

  • Auto-renew reminders

    Notices go out well before expiry, so a domain never lapses because an email was missed.

  • No. A transfer changes who manages the domain, not where it points. We copy your existing DNS records before submitting the request, so traffic and mail continue routing exactly as they did throughout the process.
