WHAT NAME WILL BE USED TO REGISTER MY DOMAIN?

Your First/Last name will be used as the primary contact for the registration. Mint Desk Media will be listed as a "technical" contact for the use of updating any technical domain name server information.

WHAT IF I ALREADY HAVE A DOMAIN?

That is not an issue. We will request access to your domain to transfer if not a part of GoDaddy. If you purchased your domain from GoDaddy, we will provide you with instructions on how to grant access so we can be listed as a "technical" contact for the use of updating any technical domain name server information.

WHEN DO I PAY FOR THE RENEWAL OF MY DOMAIN?

Our MintCare Website Maintenance package includes automatic renewal of your domain, so you do not need to pay extra.

DOES MY DOMAIN INCLUDE A CUSTOM EMAIL ADDRESS?

No. A custom email that matches your domain (example: sales@mydomain.com) is not available as part of your domain registration. We do recommend Google WorkSpace or Outlook 365 for a custom business email that matches your domain. If you need help configuring, please contact us so we can provide a pricing estimate based on your needs.

WHY DO I NEED HOSTING?
