SmartName News
Dear Smartname users,
We have some important news to share! As part of our ongoing efforts to enhance your experience and provide you with improved services, we will be retiring SmartName and migrating all accounts to GoDaddy's CashParking platform.
Here’s what you need to know:
- Migration Start Date: The transition begins on May 15th, 2025, and will be completed by May 30th, 2025.
- Read-Only Mode: On June 2nd, SmartName will switch to read-only mode. You’ll still be able to view your reports, but you won’t be able to make changes.
- No Changes Required: Moving to CashParking means business as usual for you, with no changes to your payout dates, and no adjustments to your nameservers required.
How to begin using CashParking
To begin using CashParking, simply sign in to GoDaddy with the same email address you used for your SmartName account. If you don’t know your password, you can perform a password reset. If your SmartName email does not match an existing GoDaddy account, a new account will be created for you.
From there, accessing CashParking is simple. You can head to the My Products area of your GoDaddy account, where CashParking will be located under “Domain Products.” Alternatively, you can navigate directly to https://www.godaddy.com/domain-parking/dashboard.
For more information on the migration, and CashParking, please check out our FAQs.
SmartName’s migration to CashParking doesn’t impact or affect Afternic parking in any way.
If you have any questions or need assistance, our team is here to support you every step of the way.
Thank you for being part of this exciting journey!
