Transfer a domain from Squarespace (formerly Google Domains) to Infomaniak and keep DDNS (Dynamic DNS)
This guide explains how to get the EPP code for your domain name at Squarespace (formerly Google Domains) to transfer it to Infomaniak and reinstate the DDNS (Dynamic DNS) service for free.
Preamble
- Between 2023 and 2024, all domains registered with **Google Domains** have been transferred to **Squarespace**, which no longer offers DDNS (Dynamic DNS).
- The terms
EPP code
,authcode
,transfer code
andauthorization code
all refer to alphanumeric sequences specific to the domain, the main goal of which is to verify the owner's authorization before a transfer between Registrars. - Familiarize yourself with the main guide regarding the rest of the transfer procedure.
- Make your life easier! If needed, local partners recommended by Infomaniak can handle these procedures. Launch a free tender. They take care of everything, freeing you from the technical details.
β οΈ This involves transferring a domain name you own from a **different** **provider** than Infomaniak, so that future management of this domain is handled by Infomaniak; this is not an internal transfer from one owner to another, and the code to obtain is therefore **not a code for an internal transfer** with your current provider.
