Downgrade my Domain Protection plan
Downgrade your Domain Protection to our Full Domain Protection option, or go all the way down to just Domain Privacy. Your domain contact info won't show in the public WHOIS directory unless your Domain Privacy is turned off. You don't need to downgrade your Domain Protection before transferring or deleting your domain — we'll verify your identity to authorize those actions.
- Sign in to your GoDaddy Domain Portfolio. (Need help logging in? Find your username or password.)
- Select an individual domain to access the Domain Settings page.
- Select Edit Plan in the Protection card.
- Review the Domain Protection options and select the one that works best for you.
- Select Confirm Downgrade and then select Continue & Verify.
- Verify your identity by entering the unique code we sent to you. If you've had two-step verification (2SV) turned on for at least 24 hours, enter the code we sent via SMS, or enter the code from your authenticator app. Otherwise, enter the one-time password we sent to your registrant email address.
- Select Verify to finish downgrading your Domain Protection.
It can take up to 90 minutes for the updates to show in your account.
