The redemption period is a 30-day, registry-imposed hold period for domains that occurs after Webservio has instructed the registry that the domain should be dropped. Domains will have reached the REDEMPTION PERIOD state if they have been EXPIRED for at least 40 days, have NOT been renewed by the owner, and the drop domain process has run. Normally, domains would be deleted at this point, but the REDEMPTION PERIOD provides the owner with one last chance to recover the domain before it is dropped and potentially re-registered by a new owner.

The redemption process is costly, both in fees ($120 USD) and in effort. Registrants should be discouraged from using the redemption period and encouraged to renew domains before expiry, or during the grace period when a renewal can be conducted with the registry in real time and for no additional cost.

If you wish to redeem a domain:

- Send us an email to support@webservio.com. Please include the domain name and a telephone number where we can contact you to get the credit card information to charge you $120 (includes one year of renewal). 

- The domain can only be reverted back to the original Registrant (original whois information).

- It will take approximately 2-3 business days to complete the entire process.
