Password Help

The domain name password (also known as Registry Key or auth. code) is sent by email to the registered owner of the domain name at the time of purchase.

You will need to enter the relevant password for each domain name you wish to transfer.

If you don't have a record of the password, don't worry our Password Help section below will help you recover your password.
