You can move a domain you own from another registrar to PerfGrid. You order the transfer in the console, and we take care of the rest with your current registrar.
Moving a .dk domain? See Transfer a .dk domain to PerfGrid, or use Fast Track Transfer, where you don’t copy any code.

Before you start

  • Get the domain’s auth code (also called the transfer or EPP code) from your current registrar.
  • Unlock the domain at your current registrar.
  • If the domain uses DNSSEC, remove its DS records at your current registrar. Otherwise the domain stops resolving when it moves.

Transfer a domain

1

Find the domain

Go to console.perfgrid.com/domains, or click Domains in the sidebar, then Register or transfer. Search for the domain. It says Taken. Transfer it to us if it is yours., with the transfer price next to it.
2

Add the transfer to your cart

Click Transfer it. The button changes to In your cart. Click it to open the cart.
3

Enter the auth code

Open Domain details on the domain’s line and enter the code under Auth code.
Domain details of a transfer in the cart with the Auth code field, Hosting choices and the Change the nameservers as part of the order box
4

Choose where the domain is hosted

Under Hosting, choose one of your hosting accounts, New hosting account, Free DNS hosting, or Hosted elsewhere to stay with your current DNS or hosting provider.
5

Decide about the nameservers

By default the domain keeps its current nameservers, so you can move your website first and change them later. To change them with the transfer, tick Change the nameservers as part of the order.
6

Save and check out

Click Save, then Continue to checkout and place the order. See Order a service.
To transfer several domains, add each one to the cart the same way. Each has its own auth code.

What a transfer costs

A transfer is paid once and covers one year for most domain endings. After that, the domain renews every year at the renewal price. For some endings the transfer adds no time, or the registry starts a new year on the day of the transfer: the domain’s line in the cart tells you when.

After you order

Once the order is paid, the domain shows under Domains as Transfer in progress. When the transfer is done, we email you and the status changes to Active.

If the auth code is refused

If your current registrar doesn’t accept the auth code, or the domain is still locked there, we email you. Get a new auth code and check that the domain is unlocked. Then open the domain under Domains, enter the new code and click Try the transfer again. You need the Manage domains permission.
