How to Transfer a Domain Out from Nicenic This guide explains how to get your Auth Code, approve the transfer request, and understand domain transfer restrictions.
Step 1: Request the Auth Code Log in to your Nicenic account and follow steps: My Products > Domain Name > Manage > Auth Code
Click Auth Code to request the domain transfer code.
Step 2: Receive the Auth Code by Email After verification, the Auth Code (transfer code) will be sent to the domain registrant email address. Please check both your inbox and spam folder.
Step 3: Initiate Transfer with the New Registrar 1) Go to your new registrar and start a domain transfer request. 2) Enter the Auth Code and complete the transfer process with the new registrar. Once the transfer is initiated, the transfer request will automatically appear in your Nicenic account.
Step 4: Approve the Transfer Request Log in to your Nicenic control panel and go to: My Products > Domain Name > Transfer List (on the right side of the page) > Approve / Deny
Cannot Obtain Auth Code from the Control Panel? For some domains, registration is processed through a cooperative channel with the registry, rather than through Nicenic's standard direct management interface. Due to this technical setup, the Auth Code cannot be displayed or retrieved directly from the control panel. When this happens, clicking the Auth Code option will redirect you to the Submit A Ticket page instead of showing the code. This is normal and not a system error.
