Unlock your domain
Before you can transfer a domain, you'll need to unlock it.
Getting your auth code from Site5¶
- Login to your site5 control panel
- To retrieve your EPP/transfer key you will need to go to the domain tab.
- Once you are within the domain tab, click on the edit button for the domain you wish to transfer.
- Look for the “Locked” option on the left-hand side of your screen, the key should be just below it.
- Ensure the site is unlocked, copy that text & initiate an order at starting a domain transfer
Once completed...
