Domain Registration – Certified Domains: Authorization and Validation Process

During the domain name validation process, we verify the email address used when the domain is registered with us. The process also includes fraud screening and telephone verification. If you follow the proper procedures, we can generally process a Certified Domain name request within minutes of submission. Failure to complete a step will prevent the process from moving on to the next step and all procedures must be completed to certify the domain name.

If you have private registration on your domain’s contact information, you can still complete the verification process. You can access your private registration information through the Domain Manager in your account. If you need assistance, please call, send an email or initiate a chat with our customer support center.

Generating Verification Emails

When a domain name is submitted for certification, domain name authorization email messages are sent to each unique email address listed for the domain name’s registrant, administrative and technical contacts. Each of these emails must be validated. If only one email address is used for all domain name contacts, only one email is generated. You can re-send any or all of the verification emails at any time until the email verification is complete.

If the domain name’s registration information is not available (for example,certification was requested for a domain name that is being transferred to us but not yet active in one of our accounts, or certification was requested for a backordered domain name that is not currently registered through us) this verification step will remain open until the registration information becomes available. At that time, verification emails will be sent to the domain name’s contacts.

Verifying the Domain Name’s Contacts

The domain name contacts — the domain name’s registrant, administrative and technical contacts — verify receipt of the Certified Domain name email. Once all email addresses are validated, the request proceeds to the next step. The process will not continue until each unique email address has been validated.

If you are having problems receiving the verification emails, please be certain you’re using the same email used when the domain was registered. You may also want to check your spam or bulk folders to ensure the email is not being redirected.

Fraud Screening

The Certified Domain name screens the domain name for a number of possible fraud indicators. If initial screening indicates possible fraud, a more meticulous fraud review is applied to the domain. If your domain is identified as needing further review, the verification process can be delayed by up to 48 hours. If, during secondary screening, we determine there is sufficient reason to suspect fraud, we reject the Certified Domain name request. If we don’t detect any problems, we clear the domain name and the Certified Domain name authorization and validation process proceeds.

If your domain is denied due to fraud, call our support line, send an email or send a chat notification to one of our agents for assistance. We can help identify the problem and get you on your way again.

Telephone Verification

Phone verification is required for all Certified Domain name holders to complete their authorization and validation process. At your request, we send an SMS (text message) with a PIN to the phone number you provide. You must enter this PIN correctly in order for us to complete the validation process and issue the Domain Origination Certified Seal.

You are limited to attempting telephone verification three (3) times per day and a total of nine (9) attempts per domain.

Issuing the Certification

When the authorization and validation process is complete, the Domain Origination Certified seal is issued. In addition, a computer-generated Domain Origination Certified Seal is added to the Whois listing for the domain name in question.

Domain Registration – What are Certified Domains?

A Certified Domain lets people know that we have formally certified the domain’s registration. Read on for answers to your questions about getting started with domain certification.

A Certified Domain provides visible evidence (in the form of the Domain Origination Certified seal) that a domain has been validated and its registrant’s credentials have been verified. For this reason a Certified Domain is useful to owners of business websites and other sites that offer transactions and other activities of a sensitive nature. All site owners, however, can improve their site’s legitimacy and trustworthiness by displaying the Domain Origination Certified seal.

How can I add Certified Domain to my domain?

You can add domain certification to your domain in one of 3 ways:

  1. Certified Domain can be purchased directly through our main menu. When you purchase this service directly, you are asked for the domain name (whether already registered or a new registration) for which the certification will be requested. When you complete the purchase, we automatically issue a request for validation of the domain and the certification process is on its way.
  2. From the Domain Manager, you can upgrade an existing domain to include domain certification.
  3. You can apply a previously-purchased domain certification credit to a domain that you currently have registered with us. To use a previously-purchased domain certification credit and request a certificate:
    1. Log in to your LuckyRegister – Cheap Domain Registration, Domain Hosting Services – account.
    2. Click Certified Domains.
    3. Click Setup Account next to the New Account you want to use.
    4. In the Domain field, enter the domain name you want to certify.
    5. Click OK twice to complete the request.

Regardless of the method used to request domain certification, the verification process starts immediately. For the next step in the certification process, see Certified Domains: Authorization and validation process.

Can I apply Certified Domain to ANY domain?

Anyone who has a domain registered with us can apply for a Certified Domain and the domain being certified must be registered through us. To successfully process the application and issue the seal, however, we must be able to verify that you do indeed control the domain in question. We also must be able to verify your contact information through our telephone verification process.

NOTE: The automated message that is part of the telephone verification step is provided in English only. The requester, therefore, must be able to understand the message to perform the necessary actions.

What duration is a Certified Domain?

Currently, we offer Certified Domain validation for domains registered with LuckyRegister – Cheap Domain Registration, Domain Hosting Services – for one-, two-, three-, four-, five-, or ten-year durations.

NOTE: Once the certificate has been issued to your domain, certification will lapse when the associated domain expires or if the certification is not renewed on its expiration date, whichever occurs first.

How do my customers know that my domain is certified?

When domains pass our validation process, we add a Domain Origination Certified seal to the domain’s Whois listing. You can also add the seal to the website for the certified domain, showing website visitors that the domain passed LuckyRegister – Cheap Domain Registration, Domain Hosting Services -‘s validation process.

Certified Domains are currently unavailable for .au domain names.

What’s the difference between Certified Domain and an SSL Certificate?

An SSL certificate enables a secure, encrypted connection between a visitor’s Web browser and a website’s server and keeps transactions safe from tampering and interception. A Certified Domain shows website visitors that the registration and control of the website’s domain name were validated. A Certified Domain does not establish a secure connection and it does not provide credit card transaction processing. Both SSL certificates and Certified Domains include verification of the requester’s contact information and domain registration control.

What are the Certified Domain system requirements?

There aren’t many system requirements for requesting a Domain Origination Certified seal, but there are a few.
