Domain Lock

ICANN Registries allow top level domains (.com .net .org etc) to be locked to prevent domain theft. The local ZACR Registry does not support domain locking on any .za domain (co.za org.za net.za and web.za). This lock needs to be switched off on ICANN domains if you want to transfer your domain to another registrar.

Auth Code

ICANN Registries require that an Auth Code be used when transferring top level domains (.com .net .org etc). This Auth Code must be giving to the new provider when transferring your domain. This Auth Code button will only become available once you have switched off the Domain Lock on the domain.

Limited Widgets

On the Limited Plan you get access to 12 widget points. Each widget has a certain amount of points linked to it. You will be able to add widgets to your website up the amount of available points.

For example: You could add the Facebook Widget (3 points), Contact Form Widget (2 points), Photo Gallery (5 points) and the Search Widget (2 points) to your website. This would total your available 12 points.

You would not be able to add another widget unless you removed one of the widgets from your website to free up available points for another widget.

Certain widgets are only available with the full version such as the ecommerce widgets, embedded widget and maps. A full list of available widgets and feature points are in the downloadable PDF

On the Full Version, there is no point restriction and you are able to add as many webpages or widgets as you would like.
