Buying a domain

You can start a domain purchase from two places in your app editor: the Domains tab and the Publish panel. Both options open the domain search, where you can search for available domains and complete your purchase. To buy and connect a new domain:
  1. Click Dashboard in your app editor.
  2. Click Domains and click Buy this domain.
  3. Search for your desired domain name and complete the purchase. You see GoDaddy branding during these steps, because GoDaddy is the registrar.
  4. Your domain connects automatically, usually within 5–30 minutes.
  5. Check your inbox, including spam, for a verification email from GoDaddy asking you to confirm ownership and your contact details. Confirm within 15 days, or the registrar can pause your domain until you complete verification.
IONOS was the previous registrar partner. If you bought your domain before August 14, 2026, it is registered with IONOS, your verification email comes from support@ionos.com, and you manage renewals and contact details through IONOS.
Domains purchased through Base44 renew according to the settings in the registrar account. Renewals are set to automatic by default, and you can manage renewal settings from your domain management page with the registrar.
