How Do I Transfer My Domain to Wix?

Last updated on January 3, 2023 @ 8:36 pm

If you’re looking to transfer your domain to Wix, there are a few things you need to take into consideration. First, you’ll need to check if your domain is eligible for transfer. To do this, you can go to Wix’s help center and type in “Transfer my domain to Wix” in the search bar. Once you’re on the page, scroll down to the “Checking If Your Domain Is Eligible for Transfer” section and follow the instructions.

If your domain is eligible for transfer, the next thing you need to do is unlock it. This can usually be done by logging into your registrar’s account and changing the settings. Once your domain is unlocked, you’ll be able to generate a transfer authorization code, which you’ll need in order to complete the transfer process on Wix.

GREAT NEWS:

The last thing you need to do is initiate the transfer process on Wix. To do this, log into your account and click on “Add Domain” under the “Domains” tab.

On the next page, select “Transfer Domain” and enter your domain name and transfer authorization code. Once you’ve initiated the transfer process, all you need to do is wait for it to be completed – you’ll receive an email from Wix once it’s done!

PRO TIP: If you are considering transferring your domain to Wix, be aware that there are potential risks involved. There have been reports of domains being transferred without the owner’s consent, and of domains being held hostage by Wix after the transfer is complete. Proceed with caution if you decide to transfer your domain to Wix.
