Domain name transfer or host

    If I transfer my domain name to wordpress, will it mess up my g-suite setup? How do I integrate the services?

  • Hi there,

    Did you buy G Suite directly from Google or via your domain/hosting provider?

    We support all the DNS records required for G Suite to work, so once you’ve transferred the domain to us, you can add all those DNS records on our end.

    Additionally if you transfer a domain to us, we don’t immediately point it’s DNS to us. That means even after the transfer, the DNS records at your current provider, including the ones G Suite is currently using, will remain active until you point the domain to us. As long as you’ve already added the required DNS records on our end by the time you do that, you should have any issues with your email.

    One potential issue is if your G Suite account was resold to you through your current domain provider. In that case you’ll likely need to cancel it with them, which will cause your account to revert back to Google themselves. So going forward you’d then have to pay Google for that subscription, as we don’t support transferring the existing G Suite account itself under our management.

    Thank you! The blog I’m talking about isn’t the one it auto-linked. I’m trying to create a website for my new business. I bought directly through G-suite, no roundabouts, but the domain is through GoDaddy, which is why I was getting confused and running into walls.

  • No worries, then, we’ll be able to support your DNS settings here. You’ll just want to be sure you’ve got them handy so you can add them. Once the domain is her on our servers, you can work through this document or contact support if you need help:
