Register a domain
Register your domain with DevEdge and manage DNS, SSL and business email from one place, with privacy protection available where supported.
Transfer a domain
Move your domain to DevEdge and keep DNS, SSL and email management together. We guide you through the transfer and copy your DNS first, so your website and email keep working.
Domain pricing
See registration, transfer and renewal prices for .co.uk, .uk, .com and the other domain extensions we support.
What we manage for you
Expired registrations and broken DNS records cause avoidable downtime, from a website going offline to email that quietly stops arriving. We manage the key settings and renewals for you.
Talk to us about domainsRenewals
We manage domain renewals and keep registration details up to date, with privacy protection enabled where supported. Renewal reminders and billing are handled through your account.
DNS
A, MX, TXT and CNAME records managed for you, including changes when you add new tools, verify services or move platforms.
Email records
SPF, DKIM and DMARC published correctly to authenticate your domain and reduce common deliverability problems. Need mailboxes too? See business email hosting.
SSL & CDN
SSL certificates are issued and renewed automatically, with Cloudflare CDN and security services configured where appropriate.
How a domain transfer works
Moving a domain to DevEdge doesn't need to take your website or email offline. We copy your DNS across before anything changes. The steps differ slightly between .uk domains and other extensions.
Review
We record your current DNS settings, including website, email and any third-party records, so nothing is lost in the move.
Release
.uk domains are released by changing the IPS tag at your current registrar. For .com and most other extensions, you unlock the domain and send us its transfer authorisation code.
Transfer
We start the transfer. .uk domains usually move quickly once the tag is changed. Other extensions may need approval by email and can take up to a week.
Check
Once the domain arrives, we confirm your website, SSL and email are all working, and set the renewal date in your account.
Business email
Need email on your domain?
Business email hosting from £3.99 a month, with unlimited mailboxes, webmail, a managed cPanel account, and SPF, DKIM and DMARC set up for you.

Ask a questionHave a quick question?
Ask our AI assistant instead of waiting for an email reply.
Do I own the domain?
Yes. Domains we register for you are registered in your name or business details where the registry allows, so you remain the registrant. DevEdge manages the registration, DNS and renewals on your behalf.
Can you manage a domain registered elsewhere?
Yes. In many cases we can manage DNS and connected services without transferring the registration itself. If moving the domain to DevEdge would make management simpler, we can handle that separately.
How long does a domain transfer take?
.uk domains usually move quickly once the IPS tag has been changed at your current registrar. Transfers of .com and most other extensions can take up to a week, depending on how quickly the transfer is approved.
Can I transfer a domain I've only just registered?
Most extensions other than .uk can't be transferred for 60 days after they are registered or last transferred. This is a registry rule rather than ours. .uk domains don't have this restriction.
Will my website or email go offline during a transfer?
It shouldn't. We copy your existing DNS records before the transfer starts, so your website and email keep pointing to the same places throughout.
What happens if a domain expires?
An expired domain stops your website and email from working. After the registry's grace period, it can be released for anyone to register. We manage renewals and send reminders through your account, so it doesn't happen by accident.
How long do DNS changes take?
Most DNS changes take effect within minutes to a few hours. Some networks cache records for longer, so a change can take up to 48 hours to reach everyone. Where possible, we shorten record lifetimes before a planned change to speed this up.
Do you handle multiple domains?
Yes. We can manage multiple domains, DNS zones and email services within the same account, including domains used for websites, email, redirects or separate brands.
Does a domain come with email?
A domain gives you the name, not the mailboxes. Email on your domain is included with our web hosting plans, or available on its own with business email hosting from £3.99 a month.
