How do I connect my 123 Reg domain to a Wix website?

This article will explain how to connect your 123 Reg domain name with a Wix website by changing your nameservers.

Please note: it may take up to 48 hours for any changes to your nameservers to be completed.

Before proceeding, you’ll need to make sure that your domain isn’t locked. For details on how to do this, please read the following article: How do I lock or unlock my Domain Name?

  1. Start by logging in to your 123 Reg Control Panel.
  2. Next, select Manage All opposite Domains within the ‘All Products and Services’ section.
  3. You will now see a complete list of your purchased domain names. Select which one(s) you wish to update from the provided list by clicking the checkbox next to them.

    • Domains with Domain Protection require additional identity verification. If you've had 2-step verification (2SV) turned on for at least 24 hours, enter the code we sent via SMS, or enter the code from your authenticator app. Otherwise, enter the one-time password we sent to the email address on your 123 Reg account.

    Once you see this message you can move on to connecting your domain within your Wix control panel.
