Transferring your domain to a consolidated management provider ensures unified billing and simplified DNS control.

Before You Begin

  • Domain must be unlocked at the current registrar.
  • Authorization (EPP) code obtained from the current registrar.

Initiating a Transfer

  1. Go to my.websitely.com and login to your account.
  2. Navigate to Domains > Transfer Domain.
  3. Enter your domain name and the Authorization Code.
  4. Review the details and submit the transfer request.
  5. Approve the transfer via the email verification link sent to your registered domain contact.

Best Practices

  • Ensure your domain is not within 60 days of initial registration, as most registrars prevent transfers during this period.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will my website go down during a transfer?
