Then click Check Availability.

Your domain name may be in a locked state, for the domain to transfer to our system it will need to be unlocked to allow the transfer to complete. This can normally be done at the losing registrar's control panel.

Step 3: Check Availability

The system will check the domain name's availability and if it can be transferred to us.

Click Continue.

Domains ending with .uk are free to transfer.
All other domain transfers are chargeable at the price of a one-year renewal, this does extend the expiry date of the domain for another year.

Step 4: Domain Configuration

Depending on which domain TLD you choose, you'll need to enter some additional registration details and select any domain Add-ons.

You can also change the Name Servers here too - you only need to change these if you'll not be using your domain with WebMate services - otherwise leave as:

ns1.webmate.me
ns2.webmate.me

When you’re done click Update Cart.

Step 5: Review and Checkout

Take a moment to review your details and click Complete Order when you are ready

Finally, choose the Payment method that you would like to use, then click Complete Order.

Domains ending with .uk take can take as little as two hours to transfer and can be completed by changing the registrar TAG at the losing registrars' control panel.
To transfer a domain name to WebMate the TAG needs to be changed to MACACE.
All other domain transfers require an Auth code (also known as an EPP code)
