Can I Transfer My Domain From Wix?

Last updated on September 30, 2022 @ 9:10 pm

If you’ve built a website on Wix, you may be wondering if you can transfer your domain to another platform. The answer is yes!

You can transfer your domain from Wix to another platform, but there are a few things to keep in mind before doing so.

GREAT NEWS:

Exciting update! We've collaborated with Wix to offer WBI users with a free plan for all website creation needs - Explore the details here.

First, it’s important to understand that when you transfer your domain away from Wix, you will no longer be able to use any of the Wix features or services associated with that domain. This includes your website, email accounts, and anything else you’ve created on the Wix platform.

If you still want to use any of these features, you’ll need to leave your domain on Wix.

PRO TIP: If you are considering transferring your domain from Wix to another registrar, please be aware that there is a potential for losing your website data. Wix does not currently offer a way to export your site data, so if you transfer your domain away from Wix, you will also be transferring your website and all of its content.

Second, transferring your domain will require changing your DNS (Domain Name System) settings. This is a technical process that will need to be completed by whoever is managing your DNS.

If you’re not sure how to do this, we recommend reaching out to a professional for help.

Lastly, it’s important to note that there is a fee associated with transferring your domain away from Wix. This fee is typically around $15 USD, but it may be more or less depending on the registrar you’re using.

Be sure to check with them for exact pricing.

In conclusion, transferring your domain from Wix to another platform is possible, but it’s important to understand the implications before doing so. If you have any questions about the process, we recommend reaching out to a professional for help.
