After you pay: when is my domain ready?

What happens after payment, and what to do if your domain is not in your account yet.

As soon as your payment is confirmed we register the domain with the registry. This normally takes a minute or two. You will find the domain under Domains and the receipt under Orders; the invoice appears under Invoices.

Not there after a few minutes?

1. Refresh the Domains page and check Orders for your order and its status.
2. Some extensions take longer, or the registry may ask for more information. We email you when that happens.
3. If a name could not be registered, our team reviews the order and writes to you. You are not left without an answer.
4. Still unsure? Open a support request with the order number.

Confirm your email address

The registry requires the owner's email address to be confirmed for new domains. We email the owner a confirmation link; until it is clicked your domain page shows an alert, and the domain can be suspended after the deadline. Press the link once and the alert disappears within minutes. You can ask for the email again from the domain page.
