Transfer Caveats

Your domain should not be expired at the time of initiating a transfer. We can attempt to transfer it while expired but make no guarantees. You may need to first renew the domain at the current registrar and then initiate a transfer to us.
The domain was not registered within the last 60 days
The domain was not transferred to your current registrar within the last 60 days

If the domain(s) you wish to transfer were registered or transferred to the current registrar within the last 60 days, they have a 60 day transfer lock in place. You can initiate the transfer to Evolve Web Hosting after day 60.

A Special Note About Transferring .uk and .co.uk Domains to us

The .uk and .co.uk domains use what is called a push transfer process and they utilize what is called an IPS TAG. Before initiating a transfer of a .uk or .co.uk domain, you must contact your current registrar and give them our IPS TAG which is GLOBALDOMAIN Then you can submit an order to us to have your domain transferred.

TLDs Effected: .co.uk; .ltd.uk; .me.uk; .org.uk; .plc.uk; .uk

Nameservers

If you’re setting up your hosting with Evolve Web Hosting right now, it’s best to update your nameservers PRIOR to starting a domain transfer. Click on Manage DNS (as seen in the image above) and then click CHANGE (shown in the image below) and enter the nameservers found in your Hosting Welcome Email from us.

Verify your contact details

By clicking the contacts tab, you can update any email addresses that you need to prior to transferring.

Do not update anything else until after the transfer has completed. This will place a 60 day hold on your domain and you will not be able to transfer it until after 60 days have passed.

Disable privacy (if enabled)

Next to Whois Privacy: Private click the green magnifying glass to disable the privacy and change it to Public.

Disable Privacy Protection (it will be re enabled after the transfer is completed)

Obtain your authorization code (sometimes called an EPP code)

In the Domain Details section, you will see Transfer Auth Code. Click Show Code to find the auth code for your domain name.

Obtain the EPP Code for each domain you are about to transfer

Unlock your domain

Click the Padlock icon to the left of the domains to Lock or Unlock

Unlock each domain you are about to transfer
