Domain registration · Claim in the Name Trust Lifecycle

Register your name. Everything it needs, included.

Domain registration reserves a name like yourbusiness.com for your website and email. Search for the name in CertPing, choose an available ending such as .com, .io or .ai, and register it. The first-year price and the renewal price are shown before checkout. The registrar lock, DNS hosting with DNSSEC and email forwarding are included, and WHOIS privacy is on wherever the registry allows it.

Why the registration matters

A domain is the address of your website and every email you send. If it lapses or moves without your approval, both stop working and someone else can register the name.

CertPing includes the registrar lock, DNS hosting with DNSSEC and email forwarding with every domain, and shows the renewal price next to the first-year price before you buy. WHOIS privacy is on wherever the registry allows it.

Included with every domain

  • 01

    WHOIS privacy

    Where the registry allows it, your name, email address and phone number are redacted from public WHOIS and RDAP records.

  • 02

    Registrar lock

    The lock is on by default, so the domain can't be transferred out without your approval.

  • 03

    DNS hosting with DNSSEC

    Edit A, CNAME, MX, TXT and CAA records in a managed zone, or delegate the domain to your own nameservers.

  • 04

    Email forwarding

    Forward addresses like hello@ and billing@ on your domain to the inbox you already use.

  • 05

    Renewal reminders

    Auto-renew with email reminders 30, 7 and 1 day before each renewal date.

  • 06

    Everything on one record

    The certificate, trademark and phishing findings for a domain sit on the domain itself, not in separate tools.

01How do I register a domain name?

Search for the name you want, choose an available ending such as .com, .io or .ai, and register it. CertPing shows the first-year price and the renewal price before checkout. DNS and the transfer lock are included, and WHOIS privacy is on wherever the registry allows it.

02What does it cost to renew a domain?

Every search shows the CertPing renewal price next to the first-year price. Auto-renew charges the renewal price at that time, and you get reminders before each renewal date.

03Is WHOIS privacy included?

Yes, wherever the registry allows it: your name, email address and phone number are redacted from public WHOIS and RDAP records. Some registries, such as .us and .in, do not allow WHOIS privacy.

04What is a registrar lock?

A registrar lock, or transfer lock, stops a domain from being transferred to another registrar. At CertPing the lock is on by default, so the domain can't leave your account without your approval.

05Can I use my own nameservers?

Yes. Use the managed DNS zone with DNSSEC, or delegate the domain to your own nameservers.

06Can I move a domain I already own to CertPing?

Yes. Unlock the domain at your current registrar, request the authorization (EPP) code and start the transfer in CertPing. Most transfers complete in five to seven days, and the transfer adds one year to the registration.
