Category: Contact Information

The Account Contact owns the account with us. Each account has a single Account Contact and we only provide logins to the Account Contact. The Account Contact manages the account and renew domains. In many cases, the Account Contact owns the domains on the account. However, a designer may own an account while their clients own the domains.

Taxes are based on the location of the Account Contact. Content created in Weebly belongs to the Account Contact.

Each domain has a Registrant Contact, an Administrative Contact, a Technical Contact, and a Billing Contact. All of these contacts are often the same, but they can be different.

All contacts receive renewal notices for domains. So if you want multiple people to be notified of upcoming renewals, you can set them as the Administrative, Technical, or Billing Contacts.

The Registrant Contact is the owner of a domain. The Registrant Contact has complete authority over the domain. Changes to the contact information on domains need to be approved by the Registrant Contact.

We do not currently provide logins for the Registrant Contact, only the Account Contact. We recommend getting in touch with the Account Contact to request changes. If the Account Contact is unable or unwilling to help, contact us and we can help set up the domain on a new account owned by the Registrant Contact.

The Administrative Contact is allowed to approve transfers between registrars. We do not provide logins for Administrative Contacts.

The Technical Contact and Billing Contact receive renewal notices, but have no logins or authority over domains.

1. Log into the Domain Name Management System
2. Click the domain to update

Account Contact

You can also change the Account Contact, and apply those changes to the Registrant, Admin, Tech, and/or Billing Contacts for every domain on the account:

1. Log into the Domain Name Management System
2. Select Preferences from the drop-down navigation menu
3. Click Account Contact Information
4. Update the information
5. Click Modify
6. Review the information, and Click Save Changes

After Submitting Changes

Changes to contact information must be approved by the current contact. The Registrant Contact must approve changes to the Registrant, Admin, Tech, and/or Billing Contacts. The Account Contact must approve changes to the Account Contact information. The contact must approve changes within 3 days.

If the email address of any contact is changed, we email the new contact to get approval before we ask the current contact. After the new contact approves, we email the current Registrant Contact or Account Contact. Both the new and current contacts must approve within 3 days.

The registry for .CN domains requires registrars to verify the name and identity of the Registrant (Owner) of any .CN domains. Verification must be completed before .CN domains can be renewed. If the verification is not completed, it will not be possible to renew the .CN domain.

The person in the Name field for the Registrant (Owner) must provide us with a copy of a Resident Identity Card (for natural citizens of the People’s Republic of China) or valid passport (for everyone else).

If a Registrant Organization is set, the contact must provide us with a copy of a business license or another organization certificate issued by a government authority. If the document is more than one page, only the first page needs to be submitted. The document must contain the full name of the organization, and it must be an exact match for the Registrant Organization.

The file or files must be in .jpg format with a minimum file size of 100 kB. The maximum file size is 1 MB.

Please contact us for information on providing the file(s).
