    Hi,

    If you’ve already registered the domain, you need to add the WordPress.com nameservers to your domain. However, Wix may not support changing nameservers for the domains that are registered with them. In that case, you’ll need to transfer the domain to another registrar of your choice, and then add the WordPress.com nameservers.

    We do not support incoming domain transfers so you can’t transfer the domain registration to us. You need to keep the domain registered elsewhere, add the WordPress.com nameservers to your domain so that it points to your WordPress.com site, and add a domain mapping upgrade.

    The full process is described in this page: https://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/

    Feel free to let me know if there’s anything else you need and I’ll be happy to help.

    Hello @aisajib,
    I have the same problem as @zyllaphotography with transfering the WIX´s domain.
    What means “In that case, you’ll need to transfer the domain to another registrar of your choice, and then add the WordPress.com nameservers”? We have nothing to do with our WIX´s domain?
    Thank you very much!
