Customer Portal - How to Transfer a Domain

Updated 2024-08-223 min read

Hosting documentation. Account access is coming soon. Always use the server details and nameservers assigned to your own account.

If you've joined our web hosting family and you have domains registered with a different hosting company or registrar, we have a simple and automated system to transfer your domain to your new hosting home.

Below are a couple of the benefits of transferring a domain: 

Domain Privacy 

Spammers love using publicly available domain registrations as new targets. Without Domain Privacy, your domain contact information is available to anyone.

We offer FREE domain privacy on all of our domains.

 

Easy Management

All of your domains in one place with self service for name servers, renewals, and cancellations. Register a domain with us and you can keep your domains and hosting in one easy to manage place.

 

Domain Locking

Prevent unauthorized tampering of your domain names. This gives you security to prevent "hijacking" of your domain or tampering of your WHOIS information. You retain total control to also unlock any domain should you choose to do so for any reason.

 

Getting Started

In order to transfer your domain registration to Let.com, there are several prerequisites that must first be accomplished:

  • Unlock your domain at the current registrar.
  • Deactivate Domain Privacy at your current registrar.
  • Make sure the domain is at least 60 days or older.
  • Get the unique EPP Code associated with the domain.

Once the prerequisites have been checked off, you are now ready to start your domain transfer.

As shown above, all you need to get started is the domain name you would like to transfer and the associated unique EPP code for that domain. Depending on your registrar there may be an email verification that is required to be validated to initiate the transfer, for security purposes. 

 

Pricing

The price of your domain transfer would depend on the type of domain or TLD your domain has. The term TLD refers to the end extension of your domain, for example, .com, .net or .org. In general the cost of transferring the domain will be the same as the renewal price for that specific TLD. This chart may be used as a general guide and these may be subject to change:

.Com starting at:

$11.04

.Net starting at:

$12.94

.Org starting at:

$13.78

.Host starting at:

$114.08

.Club starting at:

$19.50

.Co starting at:

$24.05
