Once you’ve completed these steps, you can perform the following:
Start by visiting the 123 Reg Homepage. From there, type your domain name into the search tool provided and select the magnifying glass icon.
On the next page, select Transfer my domain.
Your domain name will now be added to the basket. Select the cart icon in the top-right corner to continue.
Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the checkout process.
Once you’ve done this, access your 123 Reg Control Panel.
Next, select Domain Names within the ‘Manage active products’ section and then click Manage opposite Domain transfers.
If you don’t currently have any domain names in your 123 Reg account, please click here to access the Transfers page or click the provided link within the ‘Domain transfer’ email you will have received.
This will take you to the Domain Transfers page, where you can check the status of your transfer request. Once the IPS tag has been changed and you’ve initiated the transfer in your 123 Reg Control Panel, the domain will automatically transfer to your 123 Reg account.
