Transferring a Domain Name to Your Rochen Account

You can register & transfer domain names when signing up for a Solo, Growth, Pro, or 2020 Reseller Plan,  or when purchasing a Managed Cloud Server. Domain name registration and transfers are also options with our older Premium Web Hosting plans.

Ordering a Domain Transfer

To transfer a domain registration to Rochen within one of the above-noted hosting plans:

1) Click on Shared Hosting from the main menu options, then click on the domain for your Premium Web Hosting plan

2) At the top right, under your domain name, click on “Create Account.”

3) Enter your domain name, and then choose the “Transfer a domain you own to Rochen” option.

4) Fill out the rest of the new account details, then click on ‘Create Account’ at the bottom.

Completing Domain Transfer Steps

Non .uk Domains:

Here are the next steps to complete the transfer process for .com, .net, .org, .biz, and .info domains

1) Click on Manage Domains in the My Rochen menu

2) The domain that you just entered should be in a “pending” state. Click on the “Manage” button to the right

3) In order to have your domain transferred as quickly as possible. please be sure to pay careful attention to the notes that are provided for you in this next section:

a) If enabled, disable the registrar lock at your current registrar.

b) Please contact your current registrar to have the EPP code sent to you, and  then enter it in the available space (still in the Manage Domains section) to initiate the transfer process.

c) The transfer request will be sent via our domains partner, to your current registrar and it will be up to them to release the domain.

.co.uk and .org.uk Domains

Here are the steps for completig the transfer of a .uk domain:
1) Click on Manage Domains in the My Rochen menu

2) The domain that you just entered should be in a “pending” state. Click on the “Manage” button to the right

3) In order to have your domain transferred as quickly as possible. please be sure to pay careful attention to the notes that are provided for you in this next section:

a) Make sure that your domain is fully unlocked at your current registrar

b) Ask your current registrar to update your domain’s IPS tag to ENOM

c) The transfer request will be sent via our domains partner to your current registrar, and it will be up to them to release the domain.

Once the steps above have been completed, you do not need to do anything further. Every domain transfer has a waiting period that depends on the current registrar and, unfortunately, cannot be rushed. Please note that domain transfers can take up to 7 days to process fully, though we usually see transfers completed within 1-4 days. If your domain is still shown as “pending” after 5 days, please open a support ticket so we can investigate for you.

When the domain transfer is complete, the status of the domain in your Manage Domain Names section will have changed from Red to Green. You can click the “Manage” button to update your nameservers and have the domain point to your Premium Web Hosting plan.

Thank you.
