This includes DNS settings, domain payment, and renewal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you connect the domain with Shopify instead of transferring you will end up managing domain settings from a third-party domain provider. You will need to check if the domain is pointed correctly to the Shopify store, connection error may occur.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Technically, transferring the domain to Shopify is more convenient rather than connecting the domain.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Steps to Transfer a Domain From Wix to Shopify<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Follow these three simple steps to switch your domain from Wix to Shopify.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Step 1: Get EPP Code from
