Nothing lasts forever in this world and domain names are no exception to the rule: they expire one day or another. It can become a real headache to manage the renewal of your domain before it is too late, and it is even worse if you have several domain names.
That is why PlanetHoster provides you with the Automatic Renewal option. When the option is activated, PlanetHoster will automatically generate a new invoice for you 20 days before the domain expires.
It is wise to protect your domain name(s) for several years in advance. The longer the registration period, the better off you will be, because the cost of domains increases from year to year as a result of variations. The interface in V2 has been thought to help you easily up to 10 years in advance!
Note : Fees related to domain names are not refundable, as they are transmitted directly to the various registrars.
