LOS ANGELES - April 16, 2020 - (Newswire.com)
The XYZ Registry, known for its wide array of domain names, is waiving Redemption Grace Period (RGP) Restore Fees during the global coronavirus crisis through CentralNic’s RGP Restore Fee Waiver Program. Participating registrars that carry XYZ TLDs, including leading gTLD .xyz, will have the option to waive the redemption fees from now until June 30, 2020, at which time the program will be evaluated for continuation. With this program, XYZ is providing some flexibility to registrants affected by the pandemic.
Customers experiencing delays in funding, aid, or business recovery may need to wait to renew their expired domains. The RGP Restore Waiver Program removes the extra fee that the customer is typically billed for renewing a domain that is past its expiration date. Under this program, the customer will only pay the normal renewal fee, and the registrar will waive the extra redemption charge. If you have any questions, please contact your registrar directly.
Along with .xyz, participating XYZ TLDs include .College, .Rent, .Security, .Protection, .Theatre, .Storage, .Baby, and .Monster. With over two and a half million collective registrations worldwide, many of XYZ’s customers could be eligible for the redemption fee waiver. Participating registrar partners with customers whose domains fall into the Redemption Grace Period from now until June 30, 2020 will be able to waive the extra fee to renew.
“We know that COVID-19 has come with many serious challenges for our customers, and we don’t want them to get penalized if that means getting behind on their bills,” says XYZ Registry CEO Daniel Negari, “XYZ is committed to our community, and will do everything we can to support our partners at this time.”
The RPG Restore Fee Waiver Program is available to all accredited CentralNic registrars. A sign-up form was distributed to CentralNic registrars early Tuesday morning.
