Transferring a domain from Bytesis to another registrar requires a few essential steps, including unlocking your domain and retrieving the EPP (Authorization) Code. This guide will walk you through the entire process to ensure a smooth domain transfer.
???? What Is an EPP Code?
The EPP Code (also called an Auth Code or Transfer Key) is a security code that authorizes the transfer of your domain to another registrar. It verifies domain ownership and prevents unauthorized transfers.
???? Step-by-Step: Transfer Your Domain from Bytesis
1. Log in to Your Bytesis Account
-
Go to Bytesis.
-
Click Client Area or Login at the top-right.
-
Enter your email and password, then click Sign In.
2. Go to Domain Management
-
From the client dashboard, navigate to Domains > My Domains.
-
Find the domain you want to transfer and click Manage or the domain name itself.
3. Unlock Your Domain
-
In the domain management panel, locate the Registrar Lock option.
-
If it's set to "Locked", toggle it to Unlocked.
-
Save your changes if needed. Unlocking is required before initiating a transfer.
4. Retrieve Your EPP Code
-
Still in the domain management section, look for Get EPP Code, Authorization Code, or similar.
-
Click it to generate and view the code or have it emailed to your registered address.
-
Copy and securely store the code. You'll need it for the transfer.
???? Tip: If the EPP code option isn’t visible, check under Management Tools or Additional Settings. If still unavailable, contact Bytesis support.
5. Start the Transfer with Your New Registrar
-
Go to the registrar where you want to transfer the domain.
-
Search for the domain on their transfer page and initiate the transfer.
-
Enter the EPP Code when prompted.
-
Follow any additional instructions, like email confirmation.
✅ Important Transfer Tips
-
Domain Age: The domain must be at least 60 days old to be eligible for transfer.
-
WHOIS Info: Ensure your contact email in WHOIS records is accurate—you’ll need it for transfer confirmation.
-
Disable Privacy Protection: Temporarily disable WHOIS Privacy if enabled; it can block transfer confirmation emails.
