• What is a Dynadot sub account?

  A sub account is a separate Dynadot account that can access another Dynadot account. This is useful for large businesses or web developers. Now owners can allow others to manage their domains through a range of capabilities. To enable this feature, the first step would require a different/new Dynadot account. This account will have a different account holder, username, account info, etc. Owners can select between three different access levels: 1. Domain Only - Enables the sub account to manage domains. 2. Auction Bids - Enables the sub account to bid on auction in Dynadot Aftermarket on your behalf 3. Domain and Auction bids - grants access to both domain and auction bids.

Dynadot has invested a good amount of effort into maintaining the security of our system. It is the sole responsibility of the creator of the account to keep the account safe and secure. This is clearly stated in our Service Agreement under Part 1, Section 6, Account Security.We urge you to choose a password with a healthy mixture of numbers and letters and change it often to keep your account safe to avoid any account break-ins.
