How to Transfer Your Domain Name
If transferring your hosting, send us your current CPanel username and password for us to backup the entire site (website + emails) and transfer it over to our servers. ( Please wait for a confirmation from the tech support doing the transfer before going to step 2)
It takes 5 working days to transfer a domain name and the name servers can’t be updated during the transfer process, so to avoid 5 days down time, please ask your current registrar to update/change the dns of your domain to ours before you click on the transfer approval link in the transfer approval email sent to you by the registry.
Ask your current registrar to unlock your domain, remove privacy protect and for the domains transfer secret or EPP key and send it to us.
Make sure you have access to the administrative email account for the domain, this is where the registrar will send the transfer authorization email to, which you have to accept by clicking on the approval link in that email.
Note that only an active domain name can be transferred. Also, only an active/online Cpanel hosting service can be migrated to our servers. If your current host is using a different control panel, you will have to migrate your data yourself manually.

Frequently Asked Question About Domain Transfer
Every website is connected to a domain name. A domain is the unique address people enter in their browser to access your site (for example, qservers.net). Domain names are managed by registrars, who handle registration, configuration, and yearly renewals unless you choose to cancel.
You’re not permanently tied to one registrar. As the domain owner, you can move your domain to another provider at any time. This process is known as a domain transfer, and it allows you to relocate your domain from your current registrar to QServers Web Hosting seamlessly.
Domain transfers typically take 5 working days to complete. The exact timeframe may vary depending on the domain extension, but at QServers Web Hosting, we work to ensure the transfer is handled quickly, securely, and with minimal downtime.
We guide you through the entire transfer process to help prevent downtime. If you are moving website files and/or email services, we ensure these are set up first and advise you to update your nameservers before the domain transfer is initiated. This helps keep your website and emails running smoothly throughout the process.
No, you do not lose any time. Your current domain expiry date is preserved, and an additional one-year renewal is automatically added when the transfer is completed.
A domain must be at least 60 days old before it can be transferred. Additionally, once a domain transfer is completed, it cannot be transferred again until another 60 days have passed. However, note that .NG domains can be transferred at anytime currently.
