AUTO RENEWAL

You can configure your domain to renew automatically prior to its expiry date. When you purchase your domain, in your shopping cart, you will see an option called Turn on Auto Renew to automatically renew your domain every year. When this option is selected (which it is by default), we will renew your domain 30 days prior to its expiry date, and we will bill your default credit card. If we are unable to process your renewal payment for any reason, we will let you know via email so that you can correct the issue and your domain can be renewed.

If you did not turn on autorenew for your domain when you purchased it, you can change the setting at any time.

To set your domain to autorenew

1. Click Manage, and log in to your account.
2. If the domain is not already set to autorenew, you will see OFF beside the domain name. Click this button to change the autorenew, setting to ON.

WHAT HAPPENS TO MY DOMAIN WHEN IT EXPIRES?

Note: The following information applies to most, but not all, TLDs. Contact your service provider for information about a specific TLD.

If your domain has been expired for less than 40 days ...

If a domain name is not renewed by its expiry date, it is not immediately deleted, although it does cease to operate. During the 40 days following the expiry date (also known as the Grace Period) you can reinstate the domain name simply by renewing it.

Note: For .CA domains, the grace period is 30 days.

To reinstate an expired domain during the grace period

1. Click Manage, and log in to your account.
2. Beside the domain name, click the checkbox to select the domain.
3. Click Set checked domains for renewal.
A window appears that displays the progress as the selected domain is set for renewal.
4. When the process completes, click Continue to go to the shopping cart.
5. Review the items in your shopping cart, and then click Done.
6. On the Summary page, enter your payment information, and then click Buy Now to complete the renewal process.

If your domain has been expired for more than 40 days

When your domain has been expired for more than 40 days, it enters the Redemption Period, which lasts for 25 days. In the Domain Manager, you will see (in redemption) in the Auto Renew column for that domain name.

You can redeem the domain name during the Redemption Period; however, the cost is higher than a simple renewal.

To redeem an expired domain during the redemption period

1. Click Manage, and log in to your account.
2. Beside the domain name, click the checkbox to select the domain.
3. Click Set checked domains for renewal.
A window appears that displays the progress as the selected domain is set for renewal.
4. When the process completes, click Continue to go to the shopping cart.
5. Review the items in your shopping cart.
You will notice that you are being charged for a redemption that includes a 1 year renewal, and that you do not have the option to purchase multi-year renewals at this time.
6. Click Done.
7. On the Summary page, enter your payment information, and then click Buy Now to complete the redemption process.
Note: Please allow up to five days for the redemption process to complete.
 

Renewal Notice and Fees. You will be notified via email that renewal fees are due ninety (90) days prior to the expiration date of a domain name registration. You will receive additional notifications as the expiration date approaches (60 days, 30 days, and 5 days before expiration). All emails will be sent to the email address of the admin contact for the domain name. You are required to keep the contact email address of the domain name account holder and the admin contact current. We are not responsible for the loss or misdirection of the email expiration notices. Any renewal of our services is subject to our then current terms and conditions, the payment of all applicable service fees at the time of renewal, and the domain name registry's acceptance of the renewal of your domain name registration.
