FAQ: How to transfer the domain(s) I own to SmartHost

An EPP code is a transfer authorization key that safeguards your domain from unauthorized transfers of your domain. It also protects your rights as the domain holder. Once you have the EPP Code, you can begin the process of transferring your domain.

1: Log on to https://smarthost.ie/transfer-your-domain/ and enter the domain you wish to transfer to us in the search field

2: On the next page, you will be prompted to enter the Authorisation Code (EPP Code). Enter this and click next.

3: You will be asked if you want to purchase hosting along with your domain. Click the plan that suits you if you require hosting. You can view our Hosting Plans in detail by clicking HERE. If not, select “Transfer Domain Only”.
