When you purchase a domain name, you're purchasing the use of that domain name for a particular amount of time. The amount of time varies depending on the type of domain name purchased.

Domain names managed by MYOB Atlas can be renewed at any time through your MYOB Atlas website.

If you log in within 90 days of the domain expiring, you'll see a banner advising you that the domain name is due to expire on a certain date.
