If you are currently a Webservio hosting customer and wish to transfer an existing domain to one of our registrars, please send an email to Webservio Customer Care. Include your contact information and domain name within the body of your email along with "Domain Update Request" in the subject line. One of our customer care representatives will contact you to begin the domain transfer process. Consultation fees may apply.
