How to transfer your domain name from 1and1
For .uk domains
Start at http://contract.1and1.co.uk
- Log in using your account number and password
- Choose the contract which contains the domains
- Select whether you want to ‘Cancel Entire Contract’ or ‘Cancel Selected Domains’
- Choose the “Execute On” for the domain
- Change the cancellation option to “Change Provider”
- Click “Continue”
- Enter our IPS tag: EXTEND (nb. upper case)
- Click “Finish”
For non .uk domains
Start at http://contract.1and1.co.uk
- Log in using your account number and password
- Choose the contract which contains the domains
- Select whether you want to ‘Cancel Entire Contract’ or ‘Cancel Selected Domains’
- Choose the “Execute On” for the domain
- Change the cancellation option to “Change Provider”
- Click “Continue”
- Go to the ‘admin.1and1’ control panel (not the ‘contract.1and1’ control panel) and unlock your domain
- Click ‘domains’, then select your domain and click ‘info’
- You will then see the Auth Code (which will be called the ‘EPP’ code if your domain is less than six months old). Make a note of this code
- OpenSRS/TuCows (our domain registrar) will then email you with further instructions on using your Auth Code to transfer your domain to Flying Pixel, so please check your mail
