Custom domains are registered for one year at a time. Federated Enterprise automatically handles renewal so your domains stay active without manual intervention.
|
|
|
|
## Auto-Renewal
|
|
|
|
By default, all custom domains are set to **auto-renew**. Before a domain expires, the platform will charge the renewal fee to your account (balance first, then card) and renew the registration for another year.
|
|
|
|
You can toggle auto-renewal on or off for individual domains from the Domains page. Only **Owners** and **Admins** can change this setting.
|
|
|
|
> **Warning:** If you disable auto-renewal, you are responsible for renewing the domain before it expires. An expired domain may become available for registration by others and can disrupt your Cores and services.
|
|
|
|
## Renewal Failures
|
|
|
|
If a renewal charge fails (e.g., due to an expired card or insufficient balance), you'll receive a notification email. The platform will attempt the renewal again, but it's important to ensure your payment method is up to date to avoid service interruption.
|
|
|
|
## Federated Domains
|
|
|
|
Federated-managed domains (`federatedcomputer.cloud`, `federatedcomputer.net`, `fedcom.net`) are maintained by Federated Computer and never expire or require renewal from your side.
