- Contact the current registrar to unlock the domain and retrieve the EPP or Authorization code.
- Make sure the whois contact information is correct as we will be sending a verification code to the email address listed. If domain privacy is "on" this will not work, please turn off privacy before this step.
- Place a new transfer order, using the domain you would like to transfer to Frikkadel.
- Read the information presented and provide the EPP code then click continue.
- We will now send an email containing a verification code to the administrator email address. If you do not have access to this email address, contact the current registrar and update the WHOIS contact information.
- Complete the checkout process
Note: These are a few points to keep in mind when transferring your domain name registration.
- The transfer process takes 3-10 days once initiated. Ensure the domain name will not expire in this time frame to avoid potential problems with the transfer. If recently renewed, make sure it is at least 30 days after the renewal date to ensure you do not lose the additional time added with the current registrar.
- When transferring a .com,.net, .biz or .org domain to us, ICANN requires an additional year is added to the domain's current expiration date. If your account has an available credit, it will automatically be applied during the checkout process.
- ICANN policy does not allow a domain name to be transferred from a registrar within 60 days of the date or registration or renewal.
- If you would like to start hosting the domain with us within 24-48 hours rather than waiting to complete registry transfer, contact the current registrar before starting the transfer and modify the DNS to daredevil.wcic.co.za and quicksilver.wcic.co.za. Once the transfer is initiated, no change to the DNS can be made until the transfer is either canceled or has completed.
