Recover a Domain Currently in the Redemption Period
1&1 customers can reactivate a cancelled domain up to 30 days after it is deleted, which can be helpful if, for example, the domain was inadvertently cancelled by the domain owner.
At the domain owner's request, the domain's cancellation can be reversed, and the domain will be restored. The owner can then continue using the domain. 1&1 charges a one-time fee of $90.00 for such a recovery.
If you wish to restore a domain from the Redemption period, please e-mail transfer@1and1.com from the e-mail address assigned to the 1&1 account that held the domain.
If you need help or have any questions about the recovery process, please contact our customer service representatives.
When 1&1 customers register a domain with 1&1, they obtain all rights of use for the domain.
After the domain is deleted with 1&1, the applicable Registry allows 1&1 to redeem a domain for up to 30 days after the Auto-Renewal Grace Period.
After the 30-day redemption period, the previous domain owner's rights of use expire as the domain then enters a pendingDelete phase for 5 days before being released back into the public pool. Recovery is no longer possible.
