Before Initiating The Transfers
Before you initiate the transfer process, you must perform a few preparation steps at your current registrar. This ensures that the registry does not reject the transfer requests.
To prepare your domains, complete these three actions at your current registrar.
- Disable WHOIS Privacy
Before transferring your domains to Trustname, you must disable domain privacy on your current registrar.
[+] [List] Green Unordered - Head to your active registrar's domain settings control panel and locate your transfer preferences.
- Select all the domains you want to migrate.
- Disable "Domain Privacy", "WHOIS Privacy", "WHOIS Protection", or any similarly named feature in bulk.
- Disable The Domain Lock
You must also remove the registry lock from all your domains.
[+] [List] Green Unordered - Within your current registrar's transfer settings, select all target domains.
- Disable the Domain Lock or Transfer Lock.
[+] [Callout] Info Insert title here [+] [Callout] Title/Title with Icon -> Do not worry about leaving your domains unprotected during the move Trustname will automatically re-enable a secure domain lock as soon as your domains land in your new account.
- Generate The Auth (EPP) Code
Finally, you must obtain the Auth or EPP codes for your domains from your current registrar. The Auth code is a unique password that allows us to authenticate and authorize the transfer with the registry.
[+] [List] Green Unordered - Locate the Auth/EPP codes in your transfer settings. Your registrar will either display these codes directly in your dashboard or send them to your administrative email.
- Each domain has its own unique Auth code. If your current registrar does not allow you to export these codes in bulk, copy and paste them into a spreadsheet next to their corresponding domain names (one domain per line) so you have them ready.
Initiate The Transfer At Trustname
Once your domains are ready for the transfer, it’s time to initiate the bulk transfer at Trustname.
- Head To Our Bulk Transfer Page
Head to Trustname’s bulk transfer page and paste in your domain names. On Trustname, you can transfer up to 500 domains at once!.
yourdomain1.com authcode123
yourdomain2.net authcode456
yourdomain3.org authcode789
Type in each domain name, give a space, and then paste in the Auth code for that domain name. Then move to the next line to fill in the details for the next domain and so on.
- Specify The Domain Contacts
Once you have filled in your domain details, it's time to specify your domain contacts. Click on the "Continue" button. On the next page, specify the contact details you want for your domains. You can choose to use your own details by clicking on the "Choose contact" dropdown and selecting "Add new contact".
Or you can enjoy the highest possible privacy by choosing "Use a pre defined contact" to enable Trustname's Two-Tier Privacy Protection. With the second option, your domains contact info will be.
[+] [List] Green Unordered - Registrant: Privacy Proxy Service
- Admin: Privacy Proxy Service
- Tech: Privacy Proxy Service

- Pay For Your Domains
Once you have reviewed your domain list, it's time to pay for their registration at Trustname.
[+] [Callout] Info Insert title here [+] [Callout] Title/Title with Icon -> Once you pay for your transfer, the new registration period you pay for is added to the existing registration period with your current registrar so you're extending each domain's registration by at least 1 year without losing any time you have already paid for.Under "Billing address" you can click on the "Same as my contact address" button so you don't need to fill in your billing address manually.
Next, choose your payment method. You can use a bank card or existing funds in your Trustname wallet to make a payment.
[+] [List] Green Unordered - If you don't have a bank card set up yet, click on "Add new card" and fill in your card details to have it set up.
- Trustname also accepts cryptocurrencies for payment!
Finally, specify if you want auto-renewal turned on so you don't have to manually monitor your domain expiry dates.
Complete Payment
Complete the payment and your domains should be on the way to Trustname. Look out for emails from us and your current registrar to ensure you fast track your transfers. Some registrars also allow you to manually approve a domain transfer so you don't have to wait for the typical 5 to 7 days and can have your domains at Trustname in less than 1 hour.
Please note that some TLDs (top level domains) do not support Auth codes, so we automatically skip those TLDs when initializing a bulk transfer. These include TLDs like .es, .ru, and .uk.
