Transfer Your Domain to bCom Hosting

Register Transfer

Ask the current registrar for an auth code, unlock the domain, then search it on this page with Transfer selected. We keep the site on the old nameservers until you are ready to point it here. Typical time: from a few hours to a few days, depending on the ending.

How it works

Unlock the domain

In the current registrar panel, turn off the transfer lock and confirm the registrant email works.
Request the auth code

Ask for the EPP or authorization code. It is sent to the registrant email.
Start the transfer here

Search the name on this page, choose Transfer, and enter the code at checkout.
Approve the email

Click the confirmation link. Most endings finish in hours. Some country endings take a few days.
Point DNS when ready

The site can stay on old nameservers until you switch them to this hosting.

What you get

Keep the site online

Leave nameservers unchanged until you are ready. The website and mail can stay on the old host during the move.

Auth code

The current registrar gives you an authorization code, sometimes called EPP. Unlock the domain first.

60-day rule

A name registered or transferred in the last 60 days may be locked by the registry. Wait, then start.

One invoice after

When the transfer completes, renewals, DNS and mail sit on this account with hosting.

Frequently asked questions

How do I transfer a domain?

Unlock the domain at the current registrar, request the authorization code, then start the transfer with the new registrar. The website can stay online if you leave nameservers unchanged until you are ready to point them.

How do I register a domain?

Search the name you want. If it is available, choose Buy Now and complete checkout. The name is then registered to your account. You set DNS so the domain points to your website and mailboxes.

What happens at renewal?

Domains and hosting are billed by the year or the month. Renew before the term ends to keep the name and the site. If a domain is not renewed it can expire and become available to someone else.
