Domains and DNS
A transfer is an auth code and a registrar change. Connecting with a CNAME is not a transfer. Do not mix them.
People say "transfer" when they mean "point the website." Pointing is CNAME on Pro. Transfer-in moves the registration. If our buy/search flow is purchase, not transfer, this article will not invent inbound transfer as a SKU. Someone with a .com at another registrar who used the word transfer in a support fantasy. Believe the live domains UI. Empty cells stay empty.
If you only need the Bizzit site on a name you already own, connect it on Pro at $12 a month with a web CNAME. That is not a transfer. A transfer-in moves the registration and needs an auth code, unlock, and the gaining registrar's flow.
Who this is for
Someone with a .com at another registrar who used the word transfer in a support fantasy. If that is not you, a different Bizzit guide will fit better, do not force this URL.
The actual answer
People say "transfer" when they mean "point the website." Pointing is CNAME on Pro. Transfer-in moves the registration. If our buy/search flow is purchase, not transfer, this article will not invent inbound transfer as a SKU. Believe the live domains UI. Empty cells stay empty. The short version is still the one in the box at the top of this page. The rest of the article exists so you do not have to guess the limits.
Do this in order
Decide keep-registrar vs move-registrar. Then either CNAME or follow a transfer UI that actually exists.
- Decide if you must change registrars
- If not, upgrade to Pro and CNAME
- If the live UI offers transfer-in, follow that screen
- Do not invent an auth-code paste box we have not shipped
- Leave MX alone while you change web
What not to do
Do not unlock and start a transfer because a blog said all hosts require it. Do not let the domain expire mid-move. That is the usual way a useful page turns into a doorway, a fake comparison, or a brief Cipher cannot honor.
How this shows up on Bizzit
Google sign-in owns the Bizzit project. The registrar account owns the name until a real transfer finishes.
Limits
Do not unlock and start a transfer because a blog said all hosts require it. Do not let the domain expire mid-move.
Limits and caveats
Do not unlock and start a transfer because a blog said all hosts require it. Do not let the domain expire mid-move.
If a sentence would require a competitor SKU we have not verified, or a statistic we did not measure, it does not belong here.
What to do after you read this
If this page answered the query, open Create with the nouns from your own business, not a slogan. If it did not, you are probably in the wrong cluster: go back to the blog hub or Domains and DNS. Do not spin a second URL for a synonym. One intent per page is the whole point of this library.
Tools that actually do this job
These are public pages. Use them when the job is this job. They are not a second product you have to buy.
Questions people actually ask
Do I have to transfer to use Pro?
No. Connecting an existing name is the usual path. Custom domain is still Pro.
60-day lock after a previous transfer?
Registrars and ICANN-style rules can block a new transfer. Follow the losing registrar. We will not invent a waiver.
Privacy on transfer?
WHOIS privacy is a registrar option. Read both dashboards.
Free?
The slug does not need a transfer. you.bizzit.io is Free.
