Transfer your domain in just a few steps
Would you like to order a hosting plan or a domain from Keyweb – but your current domain names are registered with another domain hoster?
You can transfer your domain(s) fast, uncomplicated and secure to Keyweb.
This is how you proceed if you want to change your domain from your current provider to Keyweb:
1. Have your domain released by previous provider
Contact your existing provider to cancel your domain there and request the authorization code (AuthCode). To do this, simply fill out our prepared provider change request and send it to your current provider.
2. Request domain via Keyweb domain check
Enter your domain in the domain check and click check. It will be displayed as occupied. Click on "move" and confirm that you are the owner. Enter your AuthCode in the field provided.
If you do not have an AuthCode in the order process, your domain transfer can still be carried out. You can inform us about the AuthCode afterwards via the ticket system in the customer area (KCP).
3. If needed: Order web space and additional domains
You have the option to simply move your domain to Keyweb without additional web space, choose a hosting product or order additional domains.
Simply select the desired options for your domain transfer in the order process.
After your domain transfer registration ...
- you will receive an order confirmation from us by e-mail.
- we will contact you by phone to match your data.
- we will contact your former provider and take care of everything else for you.
- The domain transfer is successfully completed!
The authorization code is a combination of characters that is required for all common domains such as .de, .eu, .com, .net, .mobi, .org, .info, .biz, .us, .tv and .name for a smooth domain transfer. Providers are obliged to hand over the authorization code when a domain is being cancelled.
If your domain has a different ending, you can still place your order. We will inquire for you which transfer requirements exist for the specific domain extension and inform you about it. Afterwards, you decide freely whether a provider change is still desired.
If you do not have an AuthCode in the order process, your domain transfer can still be carried out. You can also provide us with the AuthCode after your order via the ticket system in the customer menu (KCP).
The duration of the move depends, among other things, on the extent to which your previous domain provider must agree to the domain transfer and how quickly this agreement is given. The domain transfer is usually completed within a few hours.
Just like with one domain, you can also transfer multiple domains to Keyweb. Enter your domains that you have selected for the move one by one into the Keyweb Domain Check and have them checked. After the check, select "Domain Transfer" for each of the domains you want to move and choose how you want to use your domains (with web hosting, email or just securing the domain through Keyweb). Furthermore, you can also order additional top-level domain extensions in the same step.
More information about the provider change can be found in the FAQ.
As a direct member of Eurid, Denic and Nic.at, and thanks to direct registry cooperation, we can offer you particularly favorable domain conditions as well as advantages during the registration process and in domain administration.
