Transferring a domain name into your account

Before initiating the transfer of a non-UK domain (e.g. .COM / .NET / .ORG) you will need to ensure that it has been unlocked by your current provider.  Please check with them if you are unsure.

All .UK domain names rely on an IPS tag to denote the registrar of the domain. In order to transfer your domain into your account and under the control of TheTechworx.com, please contact the current domain name provider and ask that they update the domain's IPS tag to ours, which is: CLOUDHOSTING

For all other domains, you need to ask your current domain provider to provide you with a EPP or Transfer Code. This is a random string of characters which once received, please keep safe.

 

Once the transfer has been initiated with us, we will issue you with an e-mail to the e-mail address your domain holds on file.  The e-mail will request the EPP or the Transfer Code. Simply follow the instructions in the e-mail and provide the code to complete the transfer.

 

.UK domain names take typically 24hrs to transfer to us. All other domains might take a few days, depending on how quickly your old provider processes the request.
