How it works

Four simple steps

  1. 1

    Add it to your basket

    Enter your domain above and check out. Add hosting at the same time if you like.

  2. 2

    Unlock your domain

    Ask your current provider to unlock the domain and give you its authorisation (EPP) code. For .uk domains, they change the "IPS tag" to ours instead.

  3. 3

    We get in touch

    We'll email or call you to collect the code, then start the transfer for you.

  4. 4

    You're moved

    Once the registry confirms the transfer, your domain is managed by Netchameleon.

Transfer questions

Will my website or email stop working?

No. A transfer only changes who your domain is registered with. Your website and email stay where they are until you choose to move them, and we can help with that too.

What is an authorisation (EPP) code?

It's a password for your domain that proves you own it. Your current provider gives it to you, usually from your account area. .uk domains don't use one; instead your provider changes the domain's "IPS tag".

How long does a transfer take?

.uk transfers are usually quick once the IPS tag has been changed. Other domain endings can take up to around a week while the registry confirms the move.

Can I transfer a domain that's about to expire?

Yes, as long as it hasn't expired yet and isn't locked. If it's very close to expiring, contact us and we'll help make sure it doesn't lapse.

Not sure where to start?

Tell us your domain and who it's with now, and we'll talk you through it.
