How to Transfer a Top-Level Domain from AwardSpace to a New Domain Provider?

Transferring a TLD consists of four steps:

Step #1: Placing a transfer order

Log in to the Control Panel supplied by the gaining registrar and place an order for a domain transfer.

Step #2: Preparing the transfer

1. Sign in to your AwardSpace Control Panel.
2. Visit the Domain Manager section and click on the domain you’ll be transferring away.
3. Open the Security tab.
4. Uncheck the Active Domain Lock checkbox and press Request EPP Key.

You will shortly receive an email containing your EPP key (authorization code).

Note: If your domain name has active Domain Privacy Protection, please make sure you disable it.

Step #3: Initiating the transfer

Contact your new domain provider and provide them with your domain’s EPP key.

Step #4: Approving the transfer

Once a domain transfer has been initiated, you will receive an email with an approval link. Click on the approval link to finalize the transfer process.
