Administrator 4 views

Why Transfer Your Domain to Hostiko?

Maybe your current registrar charges too much. Maybe support is slow, or they don't accept M-Pesa. Whatever the reason, transferring your domain to Hostiko is straightforward and your website stays live throughout the process.

Before You Start: What You'll Need

  • Your domain's EPP / Auth Code (get this from your current registrar)
  • Access to the admin email address on the domain
  • Your domain must be unlocked at the current registrar
  • Domain must not expire within 7 days

Step-by-Step Domain Transfer to Hostiko

  1. Unlock your domain at your current registrar (look for "Domain Lock" in their settings)
  2. Get your EPP/Auth Code — usually found under domain settings or by emailing support
  3. Go to Hostiko Domain Transfer
  4. Enter your domain name and click Transfer
  5. Enter your EPP/Auth Code when prompted
  6. Pay via M-Pesa (transfer fees apply)
  7. Approve the transfer email sent to your domain's admin address
  8. Transfer completes within 5–7 days for .com, faster for .co.ke

Will My Website Go Down During Transfer?

No. Your DNS settings remain unchanged during the transfer. Your website, email, and everything else keeps working normally.
