If you have purchased a domain from Wix, you can later transfer it to another domain host.
Important:
We recommend keeping your domain with Wix as your host. If you transfer your domain away, your Wix site is disconnected, and Wix is no longer able to assist with managing your domain.
To transfer your Wix domain away from Wix:
- Go to the Domains page.
- Click the Show More icon next to the relevant domain and select Transfer Away from Wix.
next to the relevant domain and select Transfer Away from Wix.
- Click Transfer Domain.
- Click I Still Want to Transfer.
Next steps:
- As soon as you click I Still Want to Transfer, we’ll send a transfer authorization code (EPP code) to your domain's registrant contact email address.
- Once you get the code, follow the instructions from your new domain provider to transfer your domain.
- It can take up to 7 days for the transfer to complete.
In accordance with ICANN rules:
- You cannot transfer a domain within 60 days of purchase.
- Changing your registrant contact information locks your domain from transfer for 60 days.
- Transferring your domain locks it from being able to transfer again for 60 days.
Notes:
- Wix is unable to track the status of your transfer once it's been initiated. Please contact the receiving domain registrar for updates on your transfer.
