How do I move my domain from Plesk to Shopify?

Technical Q&A

Topic summary

Topic: Moving a domain from a Plesk-hosted provider (HostBreak) to Shopify.

  • Clarification requested: Whether the goal was to connect the existing domain (keep it hosted externally and point DNS to Shopify) or to transfer the domain registration to Shopify.
  • Guidance provided: A Shopify help article link was shared for initiating a domain transfer to Shopify.
  • Key requirement highlighted: A minimum 60-day waiting period after domain registration before transfers are allowed (industry-standard rule).

Outcome:

  • The poster confirmed they wanted to transfer the domain and that they meet the transfer requirements.
  • The issue was resolved, with no further action requested in the thread.

Notes:

  • “Connect” means keeping the domain with the current registrar and updating DNS to Shopify.
  • “Transfer” means moving domain registration to Shopify so Shopify becomes the registrar. The user chose transfer.

Status: Resolved; no open questions remain.
