Domain Registrations: How long until they're ready?

Domain registrations are usually instant, however some external factors can delay or stop them.


Most registrations are sent through to the registry and are immediately registered and transacted.

Sometimes though, domains can flag as premium, obscene, copyright-protected, or otherwise fail.

Unfortunately, we're not liable for any missed registrations where it was beyond our control to fix.

If you've ordered and don't believe that your domain is working, please contact our Domains team!


We're here to help.
