Buying a new domain

Buy a new domain in the site's Domain section, under Want a different address?, with New domain: search for a free name, and we handle the registration and the setup – no DNS work for you. The domain's yearly fee depends on the name; you see it when you search.

When is it available?

  • When the site is ready and running.
  • When renewal is not cancelled – for a cancelled site, resume renewal first.
  • When no other domain setup is in progress.
  • Not during a trial: you choose a domain when you go live or after subscribing.

If one of these is not met, the option says why it is unavailable.

Buying

  1. Click New domain and search for a free name. Each result shows the price and the renewal fee.
  2. Enter the owner's details. Your team's billing details must be complete for this.
  3. Pay: from the team's balance for a credit-billed site, or the way your subscription pays.

A successful registration is non-refundable. Domain purchase status shows where it is: Registering, Registered, Provisioning, Live. When it is done you get a notice, and the site is reachable on your own domain.

.hu domains

  • The owner is a company (with its tax number) or a private person (with a date of birth), with a Hungarian address.
  • The .hu registry's declarations must be accepted.
  • After registration the registry sends an e-mail and a text message to the address and phone number given; both must be confirmed. This can take up to a day. If they did not arrive, tell us with the Get in touch with us link in the Domain section.
  • .hu domains can only be bought on the Demona web interface for now, not through the AI assistant.

.sk, .mt and .ro domains

When the search offers one of these endings, besides the owner's details you also accept the registry's rules; the form links to them.

  • .sk: the owner needs a delivery address in the European Union, the European Economic Area, Switzerland or the United Kingdom; a P.O. box is not enough. If the registry later asks, the address has to be proven.
  • .mt: open to owners anywhere. The registry (NIC Malta) reviews every application by hand and writes directly to the e-mail address given: there you set a password, confirm the phone number and accept its terms. This can take 3–10 days. We cannot fully check in advance whether a .mt name is taken; if it turns out to be, the order fails.
  • .ro: open to owners anywhere, but the registry identifies the owner: a company by its tax number, a person by an ID card or passport number. For a company, the contact person's name is needed too.
  • These domains, too, can only be bought on the Demona web interface, not through the AI assistant.

Afterwards

Manage the purchased domain's DNS records (for example for e-mail or Google Search Console) under DNS settings (see: DNS settings).
