Selling and Managing Domains

In WHMCS, you can configure your domain registration and pricing settings and choose a registrar to customize how you sell domains.


Troubleshooting Domains

When you sell domains, issues with domain availability checks, registration, or renewals can cause serious problems.


Domain Registrars

Domain registrar modules automate the process of registering and managing domains with supported registrars. WHMCS supports many popular registrars by default.


Lookup Providers

To allow your customers to search for domains, you must configure a lookup provider. Some lookup providers support namespinning.


Domains Tab

The Domains tab in the Client Profile contains details and management options for all of a client's domains.


Bulk Pricing Updater

The Bulk Pricing Updater applies system-wide price changes to clients' services and domains using your own unique criteria.


Configure a Domain Extension

Update your Domain Pricing configuration to add more domain extensions (TLDs) to sell. Your registrar module must support them.


Configure a Lookup Provider

Configure a lookup provider for domain availability searches. This example changes the lookup provider from the default to Enom.


Configure Grace Periods and Fees

Configure your domain grace and redemption fees to charge customers for renewing expired domains during the grace and redemption periods.


Data Feeds

Data feeds offer a dynamic way to extract data from WHMCS for use on the pages of your website.




Domain Pricing

Your Domain Pricing configuration sets the prices for domain registrations and how to handle namespinning, premium domains, and more.




Domains

The Domains tab in General Settings allows you to configure how WHMCS manages domain registrations. You can choose how WHMCS handles renewals and transfers, configure grace and redemption fees, enable IDN domains, set your default nameservers, and more.




Set Up a Domain Registrar

Set up a domain registrar to begin registering domains. WHMCS includes modules for many popular domain registrars by default.




Premium Domains

Premium Domains are domains with short, common, memorable, or desirable names that sell for a higher price at your domain registrar.


Registrar Pricing Sync

The Registrar TLD Sync feature imports domain extension (TLD) information and pricing from domain registrars that support syncing.


Client Area Domain Registration

Customers use the Client Area's Register Domain page to view your domain extension pricing, Spotlight TLDs extensions, and term information.
