NOTE:If you selected Extended Auto-Renew with a registration length that is longer your current one, proceed through the checkout process. For example, if your domain name currently has one year of registration left and you selected Extended Auto-Renew with a registration length of five years, you must purchase the additional four years at this time. Then, on a yearly basis, we will automatically renew the domain name for one year to maintain the five-year registration length you selected.
