Transfer domain names from Resell.biz, Stargate.com, UK2.net, or US2.net to RockNspace

Overview

This page takes you step by step through the procedure for transferring a domain away from Resell.biz, Stargate.com, UK2.net, or US2.net and into an account at RockNspace.

The transfer process involves the tasks that are described below. Following the transfer tasks, we provide information about tracking the progress of the transfer, and ICANN rules regarding rejections.

Transfer Task 1: Verify that the domain name is eligible for transfer

To make sure your domain name can be transferred, check the following:

• The domain name has been registered for at least 60 days, and has been at Resell.biz, Stargate.com, UK2.net, or US2.net for at least 60 days.
• The domain name is not in "client update prohibited" status.

Transfer Task 2: Confirm contact information

Before you can transfer a domain, the Registrant and Administrative contact information must be up-to-date at Resell.biz, Stargate.com, UK2.net, or US2.net, because it is these contacts who receive the transfer request and okay the transfer.

To update these contacts at Stargate, resell.biz, US2.net, or UK2.net:

1. Log on to your account at stargate.com, resell.biz, cp.us2.net, or cp.uk2.net.

2. If you are a Reseller, on the "Products" menu, click "Search", and then click "Domain Registration Search".

   If you are a Customer, on the "Domains" menu, click "Search", and then click "Domain Registration Search".

3. Leave all text boxes blank. In "Order Creation Date", select "Within All" and click "Search".
4. Click the domain name you want to transfer.
5. If the Registrant or Administrative contact information is incorrect, click "Modify Contact Details".

6. To change to a different contact that is already in your Contact Database, click "Use your existing Contact Database".

   If this is the correct contact but some of the contact details need to be changed (particularly the email address), click "Specify Contact Details".

7. Follow the instructions in the dialog box to complete the update.

Transfer Task 3: Obtain the authorization code or retag the domain name

Some TLDs require that you provide an authorization code for your domain name, to provide an extra level of assurance that the transfer request comes from an authorized source.

To transfer a .com, .net, .org, .info, .biz, .us, .name, .cn, .tw, .cc, or .in domain name, obtain the authorization code from Resell.biz, Stargate.com, UK2.net, or US2.net

1. Log on to your account at stargate.com, resell.biz, cp.us2.net, or cp.uk2.net.
2. On the "Domains" menu, click "All Product Search".
3. Type the domain name or, for a list of all your domains, leave blank.
4. Click "search".
5. The authorization code appears in the "Domain Secret" box. Copy and save it to supply in the transfer request you submit at eNom.

To retag a .uk domain name:

• Contact Resell.biz, Stargate.com, UK2.net, or US2.net and ask them to retag the domain name to ISP tag eNom.
• Alternatively, you can retag/detag directly through Nominet, for a fee.
• When you transfer a .uk domain name, use the Auto verification transfer method.
• You can submit the transfer requests to eNom and Resell.biz, Stargate.com, UK2.net, or US2.net in any order.
• If you submit the transfer request to eNom first, you must submit the request to Resell.biz, Stargate.com, UK2.net, or US2.net within a week.
• If you submit the transfer request to Resell.biz, Stargate.com, UK2.net, or US2.net first, you must submit the request to eNom by the next 8th day of the calendar month.

Transfers of TLDs other than those named above do not require any codes or tags.

Transfer Task 4: Unlock the domain

Before you can transfer a domain away from Resell.biz, Stargate.com, UK2.net, or US2.net, the domain must be unlocked. Locking is a feature most registrars offer to prevent unauthorized transfers (hijacking) of domains.

To unlock:

1. Log on to your account at stargate.com, resell.biz, cp.us2.net, or cp.uk2.net.

2. If you are a Reseller, on the "Products" menu, click "Search", and then click "Domain Registration Search".

   If you are a Customer, on the "Domains" menu, click "Search", and then click "Domain Registration Search".

3. Leave all text boxes blank. In "Order Creation Date", select "Within All" and click "Search".
4. Click the domain name you want to transfer.
5. Click "Lock/Unlock".
6. Clear the check box and click "Update".

Transfer Task 5: Transfer the domain name to RockNspace

Once you have prepared the domain name at Resell.biz, Stargate.com, UK2.net, or US2.net, you're ready to transfer to RockNspace.

To transfer your domain name to RockNspace:

1.    Log on to your RockNspace account.

2.    Enter Domain, Captcha -> "Transfer".

3.    Enter the Authorization Code (EPP) if required, Check any Domain Options you wish to purchase Then click "Update Cart"

4.    If everything is Correct then Click "Checkout".

5.    Fill in your details if you do not already have an account set up with RockNspace If you have an account Click to Login

6.    If you have a Promotional Code enter it and click "Update Cart"

7.    If everything is correct click "Complete Order"

8.    Pay for Domain Transfer using PayPal (Note: You can pay without having a PayPal account just click I do not have a PayPal account and then follow instructions to use - VISA,MC,AMEX or Discover)

9.    Then Click "Pay".

10.  When the domain name contacts receive email from RockNspace asking them to approve the transfer, do so by following the instructions in the email.

Note: To decide whether to use the Auto Verification or Fax transfer method, weigh the following considerations:

• Auto verification involves approving one domain per approval email; Fax involves assembling and faxing identity verification and a list of domains to transfer.
• Auto verification is generally easier for transferring small numbers of domains (a dozen or so; more if you don’t have convenient access to a fax machine); Fax is easier for transferring larger numbers of domains.
• Auto verification allows you to transfer domains with different Registrant and Admin contacts; Fax method requires the same Registrant and Admin contact information for all domains listed in the request.
• If you plan to transfer a large number of domains, but in separate requests, ask eNom’s transfer specialists to keep your proof of identity on file so you don’t have to resubmit it with every transfer request.
• Auto verification is the easiest method if you are transferring from a registrar that does not list Registrant or Administrative email addresses.
• For .uk and .ca names, always use the Auto verification method.
