From the MyHeritage Blog:

FamilyTreeDNA has been a valued partner and friend of MyHeritage for well over a decade. Notably, since the launch of MyHeritage DNA in 2016, FamilyTreeDNA’s in-house lab, Gene by Gene, based in Houston, Texas, has provided MyHeritage with our DNA processing services.

Today, we are happy to announce the launch of a new collaboration between the two companies that we introduced in March at RootsTech 2024. This collaboration, which includes integration between the MyHeritage and FamilyTreeDNA websites, enables FamilyTreeDNA customers to transfer their family trees to MyHeritage, and to continue building them on MyHeritage. FamilyTreeDNA users can now easily transfer their family trees to MyHeritage for free, after providing consent on both FamilyTreeDNA and MyHeritage.

This collaboration expands the two companies’ longstanding partnership, and will provide FamilyTreeDNA customers with access to MyHeritage’s robust suite of genealogy tools and features, many of which are not available on FamilyTreeDNA.

This integration stems from the recognition that MyHeritage excels in family tree tools and historical records, while FamilyTreeDNA offers exceptional DNA testing services for exploring direct maternal and paternal lines (mtDNA and Y-DNA) that are unique to the market, as well as industry-standard autosomal DNA testing. This strategic decision allows FamilyTreeDNA to focus on its expertise in DNA testing services and reporting, while providing its users with access to the powerful family tree tools and technologies offered by MyHeritage.

To facilitate this collaboration, MyHeritage and FamilyTreeDNA have developed a technical integration that now enables FamilyTreeDNA users to seamlessly transfer their family tree data to MyHeritage. This process is voluntary; however, transferring the tree data to MyHeritage is encouraged, as FamilyTreeDNA will officially sunset their family tree builder on September 9, 2024. At that point, all family trees on FamilyTreeDNA will become read-only. It will still be possible to transfer trees from FamilyTreeDNA to MyHeritage after this date, but this functionality may not be available forever, so the sooner the transfer is done, the better. Access to DNA results on FamilyTreeDNA will remain unchanged.
