How to Transfer a Domain to ElySpace: A Step-by-Step Guide

Transferring your domain to ElySpace is a simple process. This guide is designed to help you understand the steps and ensure a smooth experience while transferring your domain.

Step 1: Open the ElySpace Domain Transfer Page

1. Open your web browser and go to the ElySpace domain transfer page using this URL: https://my.elyspace.com/cart.php?a=add&domain=transfer
   
   

   Tip: Bookmark this link if you frequently transfer domains.

Step 2: Enter Your Domain Name

1. On the transfer page, locate the text field for entering your domain name.

2. Type your domain name (e.g., example.com) into the field and ensure it is spelled correctly.
   
   

   Tip: A correctly entered domain name avoids unnecessary delays in the transfer process.

Step 3: Provide the Transfer/EPP Code

1. After entering the domain name, the system will prompt you to enter a Transfer Code (also called an EPP Code).

2. Obtain the Transfer/EPP Code from your current registrar. Typically, this code is available in your account or by contacting their support.

3. Enter the code in the required field.
   
   

   Tip: Make sure your domain is unlocked at your current registrar before proceeding. You can check this in your current registrar's settings.

Step 4: Configure Domain Settings

1. After entering the domain name and EPP code, you will be directed to the Domain Configuration page.
   

2. Here, you can:

   • Enable DNS Management if required.

   • Opt for WHOIS Protection for privacy.

   • Review and set the Nameserver. It is recommended to keep the nameservers as default to avoid misconfiguration.

   Tip: Keeping the default nameservers ensures a smooth transfer without disrupting your website or email services.

3. Once you've configured these settings, click Continue to proceed.

Step 5: Review & Checkout

1. On the Review & Checkout page, you will see a summary of your order, including domain details and any selected addons.
   

2. If you already have an ElySpace account, you can log in from this page.

3. If you don’t have an account, the system will automatically guide you through creating one by filling in the required details.

   Tip: Use accurate contact information during account creation to avoid issues with domain ownership verification.

4. Review the details and click Checkout to proceed to the payment page.

Step 6: Make the Payment

1. Complete the payment using your preferred payment method.

2. Once the payment is confirmed, the domain transfer process will be initiated automatically.

   Tip: Save a copy of your payment receipt for future reference.

Final Steps and Recommendations

1. Monitor the Transfer Status: Domain transfers usually take 5-7 days to complete. You will receive updates via email from both ElySpace and your current registrar.

2. Update DNS Settings: After the transfer is complete, verify your DNS settings in the ElySpace control panel to ensure they are correctly configured for your website and email services.

3. Contact Support: If you encounter any issues during the transfer, ElySpace offers dedicated support to assist you.

   Tip: Start the transfer process well before your domain’s expiration date to avoid service interruptions.
