Transfer Domains From Google Domains

Transferring your domains from Google Domains to Evolve Web Hosting is easy to do. Follow our tips for the successful transfer of your domain name(s).

It is best to take care of these steps first before you place an order with us but it can be done after you place an order with us. If you are ready to transfer your domain, go ahead and order your domain transfer here: https://core.evolvewebhost.com/cart.php?a=add&domain=transfer

In order to be transferred, three things need to be true:

1. The domain is not already expired

2. The domain was not registered within the last 60 days

3. The domain was not transferred to your current registrar within the last 60 days

If these three things are true, you will be able to transfer your domain(s) to Evolve Web Hosting with no issues.

The .uk and .co.uk domains use what is called a push transfer process and they utilize what is called an IPS TAG. Before initiating a transfer of a .uk or .co.uk domain, you must contact your current registrar and give them our IPS TAG which is 1API-DE Then you can submit an order to us to have your domain transferred.
