  2. Click on the Transfer to Moniker button.

 

Results

Shortly after, you get the results of the check:

  • If the domain is available for transfer, it will be transferred directly to the shopping cart. In the shopping cart you receive further information regarding the price, term and any additional information you may need, such as authcodes, new contact details etc.
  • If the domain is not available, you will receive a corresponding notification.

If the domain is not available for a transfer, this may be due to the following reasons:

  • An active transfer block is set and the domain is not free for transfer.
  • The domain is blocked within the 60 days after registration or transfer (depending on the TLD).
