Can I Transfer My Existing Domain to Wix?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 4:50 am

The process of moving a domain name from one registrar to another—called transferring—is simple. You can usually initiate the process with your new registrar. They’ll contact your old registrar on your behalf and arrange for the transfer.

Once the transfer is complete, you’ll manage your domain name through your new registrar. Note that there is usually a fee for transferring a domain name.

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.

Before you begin the transfer process, make sure that your domain name is unlocked at your current registrar. If it’s locked, you’ll need to contact your registrar to unlock it.

1. Log in to your Wix account and go to the Domains page.

2. Click Transfer Domain.

3. Enter your domain name in the box and click Continue.

4. Check the information to make sure it’s correct and click Continue.

Yes, you can easily transfer an existing domain name to Wix! The process is simple and usually only takes a few minutes to complete.

There is usually a small fee associated with transferring a domain name, but it is well worth it in order to have all of your website management in one place. Plus, Wix offers free email forwarding and privacy protection for all domains transferred to their platform.

PRO TIP: If you are considering transferring your existing domain to Wix, we recommend that you first consult with your current domain provider to verify if your domain can be transferred. Additionally, please be aware that transferring your domain to Wix may result in a change in your domain’s DNS settings, which could impact your website’s uptime and email deliverability.
