If you have autosomal DNA test results at Ancestry, Family Tree DNA, or 23andMe, you might want to consider this offer. MyHeritage.com is waiving the unlock fee ($29) to gain complete
access to its autosomal DNA service, MyHeritageDNA when you
transfer/upload DNA data from another autosomal testing service such as
Ancestry's AncestryDNA, Family Tree DNA's FamilyFinder, or 23andMe's
Ancestry test. See the post on the MyHeritage Blog for more details on this limited-time offer and for the transfer/upload link.
MyHeritage
allows you to upload your DNA data from other providers and get DNA
Matches for free, but a one-time unlock fee of $29 (or a Complete plan
with MyHeritage) has been required to access the advanced DNA features —
and that includes the Ethnicity Estimate and the new Genetic Groups.
With
this limited-time offer, you can now upload your DNA data to MyHeritage
and get access to your Ethnicity Estimate, Genetic Groups, and other
advanced DNA tools such as the Chromosome Browser, AutoClusters, and
Theory of Family Relativity™ — absolutely free! These features will
remain free forever for the DNA kits you upload to MyHeritage during
this week.
In
our opinion, the AutoClusters and Chromosome Browser are just two of
the Advanced DNA tools that more than make it worthwhile to do a data
transfer/upload.
To use the fishing analogy, each DNA testing provider is like a different pond or pool of water. To catch a fish aka a desired DNA match, you never know which pool of water that desired fish swims/resides in so you want to put your fishing pole (your DNA test/tests) in as many ponds/pools of water to catch that desired fish. DNA data transfers are a cost-effective way to do this because a data transfer does not cost as much as a physical test, especially when the transfer cost is free.
This is a fantastic opportunity. This means no yearly subscriptions fees just to access all of your DNA test's features. Grandfathering-in does not happen very often. The last time the unlock fee was waived was in December 2019.
See
the MyHeritage blog post (link above) for the orange "Upload your data
to MyHeritage now" link to the limited-access offer. There are a variety of help articles at the MyHeritage Help Center to help you with the data transfer/upload process.
See you soon at Mt. Clemens Public Library!
