| Secure Your Direct .AU Names Before It’s Too Late
|
|
|
We would like to remind you that there is less than four weeks left for you and your customers to take advantage of the current .AU second level release (2nd level: example.au; vs 3rd level: example.com.au). We’ve seen a huge uptake in registrations as the window to register is closing. We encourage you to take action now, as names that are not claimed, will
become available to the public. This is a huge opportunity to inform your customers and help them register their .AU domain names to protect their online presence.
Please note, the Priority Allocation Process closes on 20 September 2022, 23:59 UTC.
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to your Account Manager or contact us at [email protected].

| Reminder: .COM Price Increase on September 1, 2022
|
|
|
On September 1, 2022 Verisign, the .COM registry, will raise the annual price for .COM registrations, renewals and transfers. We, in turn, will raise our .COM pricing on the same date.
As you may be aware, Verisign has the right to increase .COM domain prices again in 2023, as well yearly from 2026 to 2029. Based on the likelihood of further increased .COM prices, we recommend renewing your .COM domains now for multiyear terms and suggest you encourage your customers to do the same. This is an opportunity to save money on your important .COM domains.
Updated .COM pricing will be live in your account on September 1, 2022. If you would like to confirm what the pricing will be in advance, please reach out to your Account Manager or contact our Sales team.
Our Sales team is standing by to assist with any support you may need in setting up a customer-facing campaign or to discuss your account.
