Frequently asked questions
Can't find your answer here? Our engineers reply personally, usually within hours.
Do I own the domain I register with Pladinum?
Yes. The domain is registered in your name, not ours, and you are listed as the registrant. If you ever want to move it elsewhere, you can. Some providers register domains in their own name and make leaving difficult. We do not.
What does it cost to renew?
The renewal price is on our prices page, next to the registration price, for every extension we offer. We do not advertise a low first year and quietly renew you at three times the rate. What you pay in year one is what you pay in year three.
Is domain privacy included?
Yes, at no cost, on every extension where the registry allows it. Your name, address, phone number and email stay out of the public WHOIS record. Some registries publish registrant data by policy and privacy cannot be applied there, which we tell you before you buy rather than after.
How long does a transfer take?
Most transfers complete within five to seven days, and the domain keeps working throughout. You will need the authorisation code from your current provider. Our transfer page walks through it, and if anything stalls we deal with the losing registrar for you.
What happens if I forget to renew?
Pladinum sends renewal reminders well before the expiry date, and again after it. Most extensions then have a grace period during which you can still renew at the normal price, followed by a redemption period where recovery is possible but expensive. After that the domain is released. We would rather remind you three times than watch a domain lapse.
Can I register a domain without hosting?
Yes. A domain with us does not oblige you to host anything with us, and you can point it wherever you like. Free DNS management is included either way.
What is Domain Guard?
Domain Guard is our four-layer protection against a domain being moved or altered without your knowledge: a registrar lock, DNSSEC, two-factor authentication on domain changes, and ownership verification before any transfer is approved. Losing a domain to a hijacked account is worse than losing a server, because the recovery is legal rather than technical. More on Domain Guard.
Which extensions can I register?
Over five hundred, from .com and .nl to the newer ones like .app and .design. Our prices page lists every extension with its registration, renewal and transfer price. Some extensions carry registry requirements, such as a local presence, and we flag those before you order.
Can I move my domain away later?
Yes, and we will not obstruct it. There is no exit fee and no waiting period beyond the sixty days ICANN requires after a registration or a previous transfer. Ask us for the authorisation code and we will send it.
Do you help if I am not sure what to register?
Yes. Our domain generator suggests available names from a few words about your business, and if you would rather talk it through, our team will. Choosing badly is expensive to undo, so it is worth getting right.
Registering a domain name carries rights and responsibilities set by ICANN and the relevant registry. Before you register, read Registrants’ Benefits and Responsibilities and Registrant Educational Information.
Start with the name
Every good site starts with a domain someone else has not taken yet. Search one, register it, and we handle the rest.
