Domains must be renewed before they expire to ensure you don't lose ownership. GigaGlobe makes it easy to manage your renewals.
Auto-Renewal (Recommended)
- Log in to the client portal and go to Domains > My Domains.
- Click Manage next to the domain you want to configure.
- Toggle the Auto Renew option to On.
- Ensure you have a valid payment method on file.
With auto-renewal enabled, your domain will be renewed automatically 14 days before expiry and the invoice charged to your default payment method.
Manual Renewal
- Go to Domains > My Domains.
- Click Renew next to the domain.
- Select the renewal period (1-10 years).
- Complete the payment.
Grace Periods
- Renewal Grace Period — Most domains have a 0-45 day window after expiry where you can still renew at normal price.
- Redemption Period — After the grace period, a redemption fee (often $80-$150+) may apply to recover the domain.
Warning: If you miss both the grace and redemption periods, the domain is released to the public and anyone can register it. Enable auto-renewal to avoid losing your domain.
