Due to a recently introduced update with the ICANN domain policy the costs of providing the Domain Privacy Protection Service (PPS) will now be subject to a charge of $3.50 (350PKR, 2.3GBP) per domain name per annum.

This change will take effect on the 11th May 2015, and will be applied to new and renewed domain names.

We appreciate the inconvenience of this charge and wish to assure you that we have kept the fee to a minimum. The table below, shows the price our competitors are charging for the same service:

GoDaddy : $7.99     
Enom : $6.00     
Network Solutions : $9.99     
Register.com : $11.00


Main details of the changes are listed below:

•    Charges will only apply to domains with PPS registered or renewed after 11.00AM BST on 11th May 2015, domains registered with PPS or renewed before this date will not be charged should they enable PPS.

•    When your existing domains with PPS are renewed, you will be notified of changes in the price of PPS, and given the option to enable/disable the service within your control panel.

•    Any existing domains without PPS may add the service before 11th May 2015 without charge.

The benefits of PPS are as follows:

•    Details will be hidden from the public WHOIS database.

•    Your customers’ details will be kept private, protecting them against spam and junk mail.

We are providing advance notice before our charges are implemented, to ensure you have time to renew domains without extra charges.

Should you have any questions about the upcoming charges, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Kind Regards,
Your FMEOS Team
