Webador ✖ Free ✔ Lite ✔ Pro ✔ Business
Thinking about bringing your domain name over to Webador? Great choice! We know switching providers might seem like a bit of a hassle, but trust us, we've made transferring your domain to Webador as smooth as possible.
Why make the move to Webador for your domain?
Well, imagine having everything website-related under one roof: your website and your domain name, all managed in one place. We want to make sure your domain transfer is a breeze.
Our Lite, Pro, and Business plans include the option to use your own domain name, so you must purchase one of these plans before transferring your existing domain name.
Let's walk through the super simple steps. You'll be set up in no time!
⚠ Warning: Transferring your domain means any previously create mailbox will become inactive and inaccessible. We suggest forwarding all important emails to an external/personal email address.
Step 1
In the Editor, click on the Webador logo in the top left corner.
Step 2
Click on My subscription.
Step 3
In the Domains box, click on the blue + Register domain or + Extra domain button.
Step 4
Enter the domain name you want to transfer and click on the Transfer to Webador link.
Step 5
Enter the transfer code (EPP code, token) for your domain name in the field provided. You can request a transfer code from your current provider (usually an automatic option in the control panel).
Exception: in case of a .co.uk or .uk domain, you'll need to start the transfer on our side and then ask your current domain provider to change the IPS tag to REGISTRAR-EU
Step 6
Your domain name is now being transferred! We'll send you a confirmation email when the transfer is complete.
Once your domain name has been transferred, you can cancel your subscription with your old provider.
Important Bits to Keep in Mind:
- Transfer Time: Domain transfers usually take between a few hours and a few days to fully complete. It depends a bit on your current provider. Don't worry, your website will stay online during the transfer! We'll keep you updated on the progress.
- Email Confirmation: Keep an eye on the email address associated with your domain. You may need to confirm the transfer via email to speed things up.
I can't find my transfer code
Having trouble finding your transfer code? Some providers use other terminology for transfer codes, such as:
- Token
- Transfer token
- Auth code
- Authorization code
- EPP code
I want to keep my domain name with my current provider
No problem! You can link your domain name to Webador. However, we recommend transferring your domain name, instead of linking it, to avoid paying double the costs.
My domain name was registered less than 60 days ago
A .com, .org, .net, or .info domain name must be registered for at least 60 days before it can be transferred. If your domain name has one of these extensions, we cannot facilitate a transfer until 60 days have passed since registration. If you want to start using your domain name before that time, read our help center article on how to link your domain name to Webador.
If you do opt to link your domain name, you can always transfer it later once the 60 days is up.
