Ensure the continuity of a domain with Renewal Warranty

If your domain is important for your activity, then Renewal Warranty is the assurance of never losing it. As a leading registrar, Infomaniak is daily confronted with clients who have not been able to renew their domain on time. Their website and email addresses are no longer accessible, and this often represents significant damage to their activity.

Infomaniak also offers the possibility to protect your personal information from the WHOIS with Domain Privacy.

 

It is easy and costly to lose a domain

A domain name is registered for a specific period after which it must be renewed to retain ownership. When a domain is not renewed, it enters a redemption period and then falls into the public domain awaiting a new buyer.

The redemption period is a grace period during which it is still possible to act to retain ownership of your domain. However, this last resort is fraught with consequences and incurs fees. In the best-case scenario, it results in the interruption of your website and email addresses for many hours, the time it takes to urgently remove your domain from redemption.

In the worst-case scenario, if there is no intention to reactivate the domain name, it is lost.

 

Renewal Warranty, the assurance of never losing a domain

With this guarantee, Infomaniak commits to renewing your domain if necessary (blocked payment method, renewal emails not received, prolonged absence, etc.) and will personally contact you by email, SMS, phone, and postal mail to ensure you keep it.

Renewal Warranty is a unique solution that protects you from the involuntary expiration of your domains. You remain the sole owner of your domains and are free to stop Renewal Warranty or cancel your domains whenever you decide.
