redelegate
If you choose to use a domain you already own with your plan, you must redelegate your domain, or change your domain's hosting information. When you redelegate your domain, you're simply telling your domain registrar (the company through which you bought your domain, such as Melbourne IT) to redirect your domain from its current server to Yahoo!'s name server (the server that handles domains). Please note that redelegation is not the same as a registrar transfer: Yahoo! will host your domain for you, but your current provider will continue to renew your domain, and you'll pay any associated fees to that provider. Yahoo! will not renew your domain. Learn more.

registrant

registrar
A registrar is an organization that has been accredited by ICANN to register domain names. Yahoo!'s domain registration partner, Melbourne IT, is the registrar for all new domains registered through Yahoo!

registrar transfer
A registrar transfer is the movement of a domain name's records and management from one registrar to another. When you transfer your domain to a different registrar, the new registrar becomes responsible for maintaining your domain registration records, managing your domain renewals, and other administrative details. Note that a registrar transfer is not the same as redelegation. Yahoo! currently allows you to redelegate a domain you registered elsewhere to use with your Yahoo! plan, but we don't yet offer the ability to transfer your domain registration to Yahoo!

registry key
A registry key is a password associated with your domain, designated by our domain registration partner, Melbourne IT. You will never need your registry key unless you decide to cancel your plan and manage your domain with Melbourne IT instead of Yahoo! or another provider.
