It seems GoDaddy is no longer letting you use in-store credits to pay for purchases for which you use certain coupons (again, certain coupons, not all of them). Just thought I’d let you know in case you were wondering why you’re not able to finalize the checkout process.

If you were affected, I think you can contact Groupon and request a refund. The Groupon offer was only valid for people from the US or Canada, so I wasn’t able to take advantage of it but based on what I’m hearing/reading, GoDaddy rejected additional Groupon credits today.
For example, if you bought three $70 credit codes via Groupon and applied them, you’ll only see $70 in your account now instead of $210. If you bought 4 $70 credit codes, you’ll only see $70 in your account instead of $280 and so on.

The good news from VeriSign (news I’m sure you read about earlier this year) is that, as per the stipulations of their new contract, there won’t be any new price increases for dot coms. That’s excellent news for sure but the bad news for next year is that as of the 1st of July 2013, the wholesale price will increase to $5.62, ICANN fee not included.
Oh well

The dot sx landrush phase started and you can now claim your domain at registrars such as 101Domain. The landrush price over at 101Domain is $49.95 plus a non-refundable $10 application fee, click HERE for more details.

Congrats Andrew! I was browsing TechCrunch and came across their article about Amazon’s potential plans for Casa.com, with DomainNameWire being credited as the source. It’s always nice to come across such posts and it should be obvious to anyone capable of rational thought that our entire industry benefits whenever something like this happens. One step a time, one post at a time, we need to do everything humanly possible to help everyone understand that the domaining industry has its place in the online ecosystem and is here to stay.

It seems that as of this month, PayPal no longer offers international masspay payments at $1 each. Instead of $1, you’ll be paying 2% of the amount that is being sent with a maximum which varies depending on the country you are from and the country you are sending to (in most cases, the maximum seems to be $45).
