Here’s how to transfer your domain name to StackCP and start saving on renewal prices.

If a domain has been registered or transferred within the last 60 days, it can’t be transferred out of LCN. This is due to ICANN rules. If it’s after 60 days, follow one of the processes below:

How to transfer your domain name from LCN #

  1. Log in to your LCN account and select Control Panel.
  2. Select the domain you would like to transfer, and click Domain Transfers at the bottom of the page.

For domains ending in ‘.uk’: #

  1. Select the link Click here to change the Nominet TAG and enter the StackCP tag, which is ‘STACK’.
  2. Explain why you’re leaving and choose Proceed.
  3. Log in to StackCP, and select Transfer a Domain.
  4. Enter the domain name and select Search.
  5. Add the domain to your basket and complete checkout. Transfers are free. The transfer will complete almost instantly.

For domains ending in .com, .net, .org, and most other domains: #

  6. An email will be sent – usually instantly but can take up to 6 hours – to the Admin Contact.
  7. Follow the link in this email and approve the transfer by entering the Authorisation Code obtained earlier.
  8. Once authorised, the transfer will complete automatically within 5 days.
