Last updated on January 5, 2023 @ 12:48 pm

Domain transfer is the process of moving a domain name from one registrar to another. Wix domains can be transferred to Wix in just a few steps.

Before you begin the transfer process, there are a few things you need to check:

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.

  • Make sure your domain is unlocked at your current registrar.
  • Get an Auth Code from your current registrar – this is required for the transfer.
  • Make sure your contact information (Registrant, Admin, Technical, and Billing) is up to date and accurate.

Once you have everything in order, you can begin the transfer process:

  1. Log in to your Wix account and go to the Domains page.
  2. Click Transfer Domain in the top right-hand corner.
  3. Enter your domain name in the search box and click Search.
  4. Click Transfer next to your domain name in the search results.
  5. On the next page, enter your Auth Code and click Continue.
  6. Review your contact information and make any necessary changes. When you’re finished, click Continue.
  7. Check the box next to I have read and agree to the Wix Domain Terms of Use, then click Purchase Now.
PRO TIP: Wix does not offer domain transfers. Any domain registered through Wix will need to be renewed through Wix in order to keep your website active.
