Transfer Your Existing Domain To UENI

How to transfer a domain from another registrar to UENI on the Plus and Growth plans.

You can transfer your domain from any registrar to UENI, making it part of your Plus or Growth plan. We'll guide you through every step.

Warning: Domain transfers are only available on the Plus and Growth plans. Upgrade your plan or contact us to get started.

Step 1: Request your transfer

Contact our support team and ask to transfer your domain to UENI. We'll check that your domain is eligible.

Step 2: Prepare your domain

Complete a few steps with your current registrar. These vary by registrar, but may include:

  • Unlocking your domain name.

  • Getting an authorization code, also called a transfer key or EPP code.

  • Checking the contact information on your domain. Your registrar may use the administrator's contact details during the transfer.

Step 3: We start the transfer

Once your domain is ready, our support team starts the transfer.

Note: Transfers can take up to 5-7 days to complete.

Step 4: Your domain is up and running

When the transfer succeeds, we'll let you know that your domain is up and running.

Troubleshooting

  • "My domain isn't eligible": our team will explain why when we check it. Some domains can't be moved yet, for example if they were registered or transferred recently.

  • "I can't find my authorization code": ask your current registrar for the transfer key or EPP code.

Pro tip: Not sure whether to transfer or connect your domain? See the difference.

Final thoughts

Done, your domain will soon be managed by UENI as part of your plan!
