Frequently Asked Questions

What does it mean to “reserve” a domain?

Reserving a domain secures your ideal .inc name before it's available for full registration. Think of it as holding your spot in line - your domain is protected and waiting for you, so no one else can claim it while you plan your business launch or raise funds.

What’s the difference between reserving and fully registering a domain?

Reserving gives you exclusive access to your domain name, but you don't own it yet and can't use it for DNS, email, or websites.

Registering (our Launch and Scale plans) gives you full ownership with complete domain management, email setup, site activation, and more.

Think of reserving as securing your name while you plan, and registering as actually putting it to work for your business.

What can I do with my domain while it’s reserved?

You're holding it, but not yet using it. While reserved, your domain cannot be registered by anyone else and will not resolve to anything online - no website, no email, no DNS functionality. But it's completely protected and ready to upgrade via my.inc whenever you're ready to launch. Think of Reserve as your placeholder while you plan, and Launch as your go-live solution for an instant professional presence.

Can I upgrade from “Reserve” to “Launch” and “Scale” later?

Absolutely. You can upgrade at any time. Your reservation fee will be applied toward the full registration cost, so you’re never paying twice.

What happens if I stop paying for my reservation?

Your reservation will expire, and the domain will become available to others. We'll notify you before expiration, but if you don't renew or upgrade, your exclusive hold will be released. Once that happens, we can't guarantee you'll be able to get that same domain name back - especially with .inc domains being in high demand due to their exclusivity.
