Before You Dive In

This guide is perfect if you want to:

  • Transfer your domain from the Ivorey™ Cloudflare account into your own personal Cloudflare account

info icon
Ivorey™ domains are managed through Cloudflare, so this process is simply shifting ownership from our Cloudflare environment to yours.

Step 1: Add Your Domain to Your New Cloudflare Account

warning icon
Prerequisite: Please make sure you’ve set up a Cloudflare account of your own - this is where your domain will live moving forward. You’ll need access to this account during the process.
Click here for the written steps
  1. Log in to your Cloudflare account

  2. Once logged in, click [+ Add] > and select [Connect a domain]

  3. Enter the domain name you’re transferring out of Ivorey™ > and click [Continue]

  4. Choose a Cloudflare plan (the Free plan is totally fine for most users)

  5. Cloudflare will scan your existing DNS records - review them carefully. You can find your current DNS records here:

  6. IMPORTANT: Make sure all DNS records have the proxy status turned OFF (click the orange cloud icon next to each record to turn it off)

  7. If all DNS records look correct, click [Continue to Activation]. If anything looks off, you can manually add, remove, or update records to match your current configuration

  1. At this point, do not change your nameservers - we’ll handle that during the transfer process


Step 2: Send Us Your Cloudflare Account ID

Click here for the written steps
  1. Once your domain is added and DNS records are in place, we’ll need your Cloudflare Account ID to initiate the transfer. Go to your Cloudflare dashboard > and click into the domain you just added

  2. Look at the URL in your browser - your Account ID is the long string of numbers and letters between /accounts/ and /workers

    Example: If your URL looks like:
    dash.cloudflare.com/accounts/0d2031c4bcda5980204101c44294740c/workers
    ​
    Then your Account ID is: 0d2031c4bcda5980204101c44294740c

  3. Once you have it, please email it to [email protected] or send it through the chat widget inside your Ivorey™ dashboard


Step 3: We’ll Initiate the Transfer From Our End

After we receive your Account ID and confirm your domain is ready to move, we’ll begin the transfer process from our side. You don’t need to do anything else until you’re notified.

Once we start the transfer, it typically completes within 48 hours.


Step 4: Accept the Transfer in Your Cloudflare Account

Click here for the written steps
  1. When the transfer is ready, log in to your Cloudflare account to accept it. Go to Domain Registration in the sidebar > and click [Manage Domains]

  2. Locate the domain being transferred > and click [Manage]

  3. Approve the transfer

  4. Once accepted, the domain status will update to Active under your domain list

warning icon
After the transfer is accepted, you might briefly see a warning that says “Invalid Nameservers” on your domain dashboard.
​
Don’t panic - this is totally normal! This warning usually resolves itself within 24 hours. No action is required from your end. Just give it a little time and refresh your dashboard later.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I transfer out a domain purchased through Ivorey if I’ve cancelled my subscription?
  • Check domain ownership status – Even if your Ivorey™ subscription is cancelled, you may still technically own the domain, depending on how long it’s been since cancellation. Domains usually remain active for a certain period before fully expiring.

  • Unlock your domain – To transfer a domain to another provider, you’ll need to unlock it. If your Ivorey™ account is inactive, please reach out to Ivorey™ Support to unlock the domain: [email protected]

  • Obtain an authorization/EPP code – This code is required by the new registrar to initiate the transfer. Ivorey™ Support can provide this if your account is no longer accessible.

  • Initiate the transfer with a new registrar – Once unlocked and with the EPP code, you can start the transfer with your chosen domain provider (like GoDaddy, Namecheap, etc.).

  • Allow for transfer time – Domain transfers typically take 5–7 days to complete.

Can a domain be transferred from Ivorey to another GHL agency?

Yes! While complete subaccount transfers are not supported, as per our Terms, a domain can be transferred from Ivorey™ to another HighLevel agency (or to HighLevel directly). Please reach out to Support using the chat widget, with the exact domain name and the agency ID number, for our Support Team to process the domain transfer.
