  I would like to transfer my domain name to Squarespace. I would like my domain name to be un associated with wordpress and have the host work through square space. How do I release my domain from redemption so that I can move it.

  Thank you.

  Hi there,

  I confirmed with our registrar that adampierce26.com is now in a redemption period. The best bet is to get the domain out of redemption, renew it, and then transfer it to Squarespace.

  Our registrar charges an $80 late renewal fee in addition to the $26 we charge to renew the domain. The good news is that this is still a chance of reclaiming the domain through this option.

  Your other option is to wait until the redemption period is over so that the domain becomes available for registration again. Domains are usually in redemption for approximately 80 days, but with this option, you run
  the risk of someone else jumping in front of you to purchase the domain before you get the chance.

  Please let me know if you want to proceed with paying the late renewal fee in the attempt to reclaim the domain name. This option is also time sensitive because the domain can be auctioned off to an expired domain bidder.

  Let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!
