Why do I have to verify my registrant email address?

 

In accordance with ICANN policy, Uniregistry requires all domain name account holders and registrants to have a verified email address. Verification ensures we can contact you should we need to and also that your account activity is authorized.  You will need to verify both your account and any email address used as the registrant contact for a domain.

 

When you create an account and again when you create a new contact in your address book, an email will be sent to that address with a verification button.  Click the button to verify that email address.

You will only need to verify each unique email address used as a contact once.

When you attempt to register or transfer a domain, a notification email is automatically generated and sent to the verified account email address. Notices are also sent when changes are made to your account settings.  You can enable/disable notifications in the ‘Notifications’ panel under ‘Account Settings’ located in the ‘Account’ drop-down menu in the upper-right corner.

If you receive any of these notifications and have not initiated the stated activity, please contact support immediately at +1 800 818 1828. We also recommend that you log into your account and check your account settings.

In addition to email verification, Uniregistry also offers Two-Step Verification as an additional security option for your account.
