My domain is in redemption, how to renew?

Solution

This rule ONLY applies to .com / .net / .org / .info domain names. This does not apply to any other domain names.

The Redemption Grace Period is a thirty (30) day period that begins after your domain name has officially expired. The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) has required that registries implement this facility to allow the original registrants (domain name holders) to redeem a deleted name.

The reason for the introduction of the Redemption Grace Period process is to provide additional time to catch erroneous deletions before the name is made available for re-registration.

When a name enters the Redemption Grace Period, it is removed from the zone file (if it was originally in the zone file). As a result, any Internet services served by the domain name will be disabled (e.g. e-mail or a Website). The registrant must act IMMEDIATELY if he or she wants to keep the name.

If you wish to redeem a domain name when it has entered the Redemption Grace Period you will need to contact us.

Please note, the fee to restore a domain name in the Redemption Grace Period is $220.00. This includes a one year renewal.

In case you fail to redeem the domain name, here is what is going to happen next.

Once the domain is out of redemption there is approximately a 5 day delete period and then the domain can be registered again on a first come first served basis.
