If you are using Wix as a domain registrar, we recommend transferring your domain to Squarespace. This guide will walk you through the process of transferring your domain from Wix to Squarespace.
Before you begin: Before initiating the domain transfer, make sure you've completed the following prerequisites:
Unlock your domain on Wix: Log in to your Wix account, navigate to the "My Domains" section, and make sure your domain is unlocked for transfer.
Obtain the authorization code (EPP code): Request the authorization code from Wix. This code is necessary for initiating the domain transfer process with Squarespace.
Ensure contact information is up to date: Verify that your contact information associated with the domain is accurate and up to date on Wix.
Now, let's proceed with the transfer:
Step 1: Initiate Domain Transfer on Squarespace
Log in to your Squarespace account.
In the Home menu, click on "Settings," then choose "Domains."
Click on "Use a Domain I Own."
Enter your domain name and click "Continue."
Squarespace will prompt you to enter the authorization code. Input the code you obtained from Wix and follow the on-screen instructions.
Step 2: Confirm Domain Transfer
After entering the authorization code, Squarespace will guide you through the confirmation process. Verify the details and confirm the domain transfer.
Step 3: Check Transfer Status
Monitor the domain transfer status within your Squarespace account. The transfer process may take a few days. Squarespace will notify you once the transfer is complete.
