Version 2.4, 1 January, 2025

1. About payments to Punktum dk

1.1 In accordance with Punktum dk's Terms and Conditions for the right to use a .dk domain name, section 5.9, all payments to Punktum dk must be made in the manner indicated by Punktum dk. This procedure describes the way in which payments must take place and how a registrant or the registrant's payer can choose to receive invoices from Punktum dk.

1.2 This procedure applies to payments to Punktum dk in connection with domain names where the registrant has chosen registrant management, cf. point 2.1 of the Terms for the right to use a .dk domain name, and for payments regarding the creation and renewal of waiting list positions.

1.3 A registrant who has chosen Registrar Management of his domain name, cf. point 2.1 of the Terms for the right to use a .dk domain name, must make its payments regarding the domain name to the registrar in the manner that the registrar has instructed.

2. The role as billing contact

2.1 A registrant may choose to entrust the role of payer of his domain name to another natural or legal person. The registrant must use Punktum dk's self-service to insert someone else who pays for his domain name.

A registrant can also agree with a registrar of .dk domain names, i.e. a legal entity that has a valid registrar contract with Punktum dk, that this must take on the role of payer for the registrant's domain name.

2.2 A registrar’s payments to Punktum dk must be made as advance payments via a registrar account with Punktum dk, cf. the registrar contract.

3. Invoices from Punktum dk

3.1 Before the end of the registration period for which a .dk domain name has been paid, Punktum dk sends an invoice for the renewal of the registration period for the domain name in question.

3.2 Punktum dk sends an invoice for the renewal of the registration period to a registrant via the contact information provided by the registrant.

If a registrant has put in another legal or natural person as the payer for his domain name, Punktum dk issues the invoice to this payer and sends the invoice via the contact information that Punktum dk has been informed about the payer.

If the payer is a registrar of .dk domain names, this must pay in advance, cf. point 2.2, and will not receive an invoice from Punktum dk before the end of the registration period.

3.3 In some cases, payment to Punktum dk must be made online using Punktum dk's self-service. This applies to:

  • Payment of registration for the waiting list,
  • Payment of the extension of a registration period, which is paid during the already paid registration period and before issuing an invoice from Punktum dk for the renewal of the registration period,
  • Payment of a fee for restoration and a new period fee in connection with the restoration of a domain name after suspension,
  • Acquisition of VID service.

4. Methods of transmission

4.1 Punktum dk sends an invoice via e-mail to the registrant or to the payer if the registrant has inserted someone else to pay for the domain name; however not if the payer is a retailer, cf. point 3.2.

4.2 Instead of e-mail, the registrant or payer can choose to have an invoice sent in the following way:

  • E-box; delivery of the invoice directly to the registrant's or payer's E-box.
  • Payment service (Betalingsservice); the invoice is received as an attachment in the payment summary.
  • OIOUBL; electronic invoicing to the EAN location number provided by the registrant or payer.

4.3 A registrant or a payer can choose one of the forwarding methods in point 4.2 via Punktum dk's self-service. Delivery of the invoice directly to the registrant's or payer's E-box must, however, be selected on E-box's website.

5. Methods of payment

5.1 An invoice from Punktum dk can be paid in the following ways:

  • Deposit with the FIK line via online banking. 
  • Online via Punktum dk's self-service with the following card types: Visa/Dankort, MasterCard, Diners and JCB.
  • Online via Punktum dk's self-service with MobilePay.
  • Automatic payment via registration for Betalingsservice.
  • Payment via automatic debit/credit card.

6. Notice of non-payment

6.1 If a registrant or the registrant's payer has not paid an invoice from Punktum dk for the renewal of a registration period for a domain name, Punktum dk sends a notice to the registrant and the payer per e-mail. Punktum dk warns that the domain name will be suspended if payment is not made before the domain's expiry date. 

A notice in itself constitutes an invoice that can be paid with the FIK line via online banking.
