  • 0

Transferring your domain to Zentec allows you to manage both your hosting and your domain in one place, with easier billing and support. Here’s how to complete the transfer in a few steps.

✅ Step 1: Prepare Your Domain for Transfer

Before initiating the transfer, go to your current domain registrar and:

  • Unlock the domain name

  • Disable WHOIS privacy (if enabled)

  • Obtain your domain transfer (EPP) code

  • Make sure the domain is at least 60 days old and not expired

  • Confirm that your contact email is up to date (you’ll receive a confirmation link)

 

✅ Step 2: Start the Transfer on Zentec

  1. Go to: https://zentecsolutions.ca/billing

  2. Click on DomainsTransfer Domain to Us

  3. Enter your domain name and the EPP code

  4. Complete the checkout process (a one-year renewal fee will apply)

 

✅ Step 3: Approve the Transfer

  • Check your email (used as domain admin contact)

  • You’ll receive a confirmation email from the current registrar or registry

  • Approve the transfer by clicking the verification link

 

✅ Step 4: Wait for Completion

  • The transfer typically takes 5 to 7 days to complete

  • You’ll receive a confirmation email from Zentec when it’s done

✅ Once the transfer is complete, you’ll be able to manage DNS, renewals, and settings directly from your Zentec client area.

 

ℹ️ Important Notes:

  • The domain's expiration date will be extended by one year after a successful transfer

  • Some domain extensions (.ca, .uk, etc.) have additional rules — contact us if unsure

  • If the transfer fails, no fees will be charged, and you can retry after fixing the issue
