How long does it take to transfer a domain?

Posted by admin

 Generally the domain transfer process is done electronically between your old registrar and our registration service. Still, with no problems in the process is takes at least 24 hours to transfer a domain over to us. With problems such as bounced e-mails and old information, it can take up to a week. Keep in mind we will "babysit" the process so it's minimized for you. You will also see updated status information in your support area.

Tip: The old registrar will send out several confirmation e-mails, responding to those quickly will move the process along faster. Some registrars will also require you to login and "accept/deny" the transfer from there. Without logging in and accepting the transfer, an additional 72 hours is added to the processing time.
