What does it mean to transfer registrars?
If you already own a domain, you registered it using a domain name registrar. By using our Transfer Registrar tool, you are simply transferring your domain from the registrar you originally registered to our registrar. (Please note, there is a 60-day transfer hold - which means you have to wait two months from the initial registration before you can transfer your domain.)Back to top
How much does it cost?
You can transfer your domain from your previous domain registrar for a price starting at $8.50. The price will always be the same as for a new registration. A transfer will add one year to the original registration term. For example, if your domain is due to expire in 5 months, you can transfer it to us for $11.39, and it will then expire in 1 year and 5 months.
Why would I want to transfer registrars?
When you registered your domain you probably paid up to $30.00 to reserve it. Now that it is coming due, you can save yourself some money by taking advantage of cPanel-Host.com's extremely low transfer prices. In addition, once the transfer is complete, you will be able to easily manage your domain by using our secure online manager.
Maybe I don't need to transfer registrars in order to change domains?
If you do NOT pay a much higher annual domain name registration fee (again, our's is $11.39), and if you like to keep your present registrar but want to transfer your website to us at cPanel-Host, then you only need to contact your present registrar to change your account setup there - so that it points to our server. In many cases your present registrar's website will allow you to do this by yourself (in the "Account Management" or "My Account" section). You will need to update the nameserver and netaddress information as instructed in the hostong welcome message we will send you.
Will transferring change my information?
No. All existing information in your domain record will be preserved. Once the transfer has been completed, you can then use the Domain Management System to change any information you choose.
How do I change registrars?
Click on this Transfer Registrars link. Enter the domain(s) you wish to transfer. The administrative contact will receive an email to confirm the transfer(s). (Please note: If the admin contact's email address is outdated, they will not be able to receive the email, and there can be no confirmation, and thus, no transfer. You must update your admin contact's email address with your prior registrar first.)
