How Long Does It Take for My Domain to Be Active After Payment?

Modified on Mon, Dec 2 at 9:20 AM

Once you've completed your payment, you're likely eager to know when your domain will be activated. Here's what you can generally expect, depending on your situation:


Newly Registered Domains

For newly registered domains, activation usually occurs within the day. Often, you can expect it to be active in just a few hours.

- **Process:** Payment triggers a verification process to ensure all registration details are in order.

- **Timeline:** Typically, the domain is active on the same day, with most cases seeing activation within a few hours.


Newly Expired Domains (expired within the last 30 days)

If you're renewing a domain that has recently expired, it generally becomes active again within a couple of hours.

- **Process:** Once the renewal payment is processed, the domain is reactivated, subject to registry handling.

- **Timeline:** Expect a quick turnaround, often within two hours.


Domains in Redemption

Domains in the redemption phase require a bit more time, usually becoming active within 24 hours of payment.

- **Process:** After paying the redemption fee, additional steps are taken to restore the domain from its held status.

- **Timeline:** This process can take up to 24 hours to complete.


Additional Considerations

While these timelines are typical, please note that DNS propagation may take up to 48 hours for your domain to be fully visible across all regions. We strive to make the process as smooth and prompt as possible.
