Domains / TLDs

You can find this section in HostBill Admin → Settings → Products & Services → Your Order Page → Add new product

Please note you need to add new order page first to be able to add new domains.

Domains in HostBill fall under following lifecycle:

Customers request domain transfer / registration through HostBill order page. Domain status: Pending Registration or Pending Transfer
HostBill registers domain or initiates transfer process. It happens automatically after the customer pays the invoice (if such setting is enabled in related TLD automation setting) or by staff member using Register|Transfer button in admin GUI. Domain status: Active
Domain registration period passes, HostBill issues domain renewal invoice before domain expiration date. Number of days before expiration to be set in TLD automation settings. Customer receives up to 5 domain renewal reminders. Domain status: Active
- Customer chooses to renew the domain, after paying invoice HostBill issues Renew command to registrar (or staff member does so from admin interface). Domain status: Active
- Customer chooses not to renew the domain, after reaching domain expiration date HostBill marks this domain as expired. Domain status: Expired

Note!

HostBill does not mark domain as Cancelled automatically, this status is for manual use only.
After domain is not renewed and marked as Deleted in registrar HostBill no longer syncs such domain. It still exists as Expired in admin GUI. It's up to staff member to remove its record from HostBill if needed.
It's not possible to synchronize domains that are Pending. HostBill not always can pick up domains that were not registered through HostBill. Try changing domain status to active and re-attempt synchronization. If it fails it means that HostBill is not able to connect such manually inserted domain.
