Change domain or hosting owner

Introduction

If you need to change the owner of a domain, a hosting service or another service purchased at miHosting, you can request it from your client area.

This process is useful when a service starts being managed by another person, company, client or administrative contact. For example, it may happen if you sell a domain, hand over a website to a final client or need another person to take care of billing and service management.

Steps to change the owner of a domain or hosting service

1. Create a customer account for the new owner

   Before requesting the change, the new owner must have an active miHosting customer account.

   They can create it here:

   https://www.mihosting.net/areaclientes/register.php

2. Sign in to the current account

   After the new account has been created, the current owner must sign in to the miHosting client area using the account that currently owns the service.

3. Open a support ticket

   From the current account, open a ticket requesting the ownership change.

   Clearly indicate which services you want to move:

   • Only the domain.
   • Only the hosting service.
   • The domain and the associated hosting together.
   • Any other specific service purchased at miHosting.

4. Provide the new account details

   Include the email address of the new customer account and any details needed to identify the future owner correctly.

5. Wait for confirmation from miHosting

   The support team may review the request and confirm the transfer once the ownership change has been validated.

Useful tips

• Make sure the new account has the correct real details before requesting the move.
• Request the change from the current account holder to avoid delays.
• Be specific about which services should move and which ones should stay in the original account.
