How do I transfer IN a .COM, .NET or other global domain name to Prostack?

  • 4

To transfer .COM domains, and most other global domain names from another provider, you first need to ensure the following requirements are met. 

 

  • If the domain name has WHOIS privacy enabled, this must be disabled before a domain transfer can be initiated
  • The registrant contact email address is valid and emails can be received to the address
  • The domain is "unlocked"
  • You have the EPP or Transfer code

 

You will need to make the required changes, and obtain the required information from the existing domain provider.

*Please note: for many domain names, changes made to the registrant information (in items 1 and 2 above) may restrict the domain name and prevent transfer for a period of 60 days). 

Global domains are renewed for 1 further year automatically as part of the transfer. This is a standard and mandatory part of the transfer process between all domain registrars.


 

Step 1

Once you're ready to transfer in a domain name to ProStack, you should log in to your [client portal] (If you cannot remember your password, there is a [password reset link]).


 

Step 2

Click on the Domains option at the top, and then select Transfer Domains to Us.

 


 

Step 3

Enter the domain name you wish to transfer in, and then put the EPP/Auth Code and click add to cart.

 


 

Step 4

On the next page, you can choose to set domain privacy and hide the registrant/tech/admin/billing contact information from public view.


 

Step 5 (a)

If you wish to continue using existing Nameservers after the transfer completes, please enter these in the Nameservers section. 


 

Step 5 (b)

If you have Shared or Reseller Hosting services with Prostack, you may use Prostack's nameservers for your domain name DNS. These are:

ns1.ss-core.net and ns2.ss-core.net

 


 

Step 6

Once you've set the nameservers you wish to use, click Continue. You'll then be able to complete the order.


 

Please note: The domain transfer will be released within the 7-day waiting period. Further information on how long it takes for a domain to be transferred can be found [here].
