Do I need to verify my email address after purchasing a domain?

Updated over a month ago

Yes, and within 15 days of purchase. This is important to keep your domain active.

To finalize your domain registration with Rebrandly, you'll need to verify your email address within 15 days of purchase. This is a legal requirement by ICANN to ensure domain ownership.

If you don't verify your email within 15 days, your domain (and all your links) will be suspended. Unfortunately, we can't prevent this without email verification.

Here's what to expect:

  1. Domain Propagation: After registering, your domain's settings will update globally (propagation). Once complete, you'll receive an email confirming it's ready to use.

  2. Email Verification: Look out for 1-5 emails from our domain partner requesting "WHOIS domain privacy" verification. These emails are crucial to avoid domain suspension.

If you don't see the emails:

  • Check your spam folder.

  • Contact us. We'll help you verify your email and ensure everything runs smoothly.
