Domain Registration

Domain Registration verifies From addresses of accounts that aren't part of a recommended authenticated domain. To streamline the verification process and avoid sending restrictions, register a non-authenticated domain and validate the entire domain’s ownership. All associated user email addresses that use the registered domain are verified without sending an email to that address. Authenticating a domain in Marketing Cloud Engagement requires a Sender Authentication Package or Private Domain.

How Domain Registration Works

When you enter a domain using Register Domain in From Address Management, a token is generated. Provide the token to the agency or department that manages your domain name. They place the token in a new text record in the DNS record for your domain. As you continue the domain registration process, Engagement verifies that the generated token and the DNS text record token match via a DNS lookup. If both tokens match, the domain is registered.

Note It can take up to 24 hours for the new text record to populate your DNS record.

Note If you don’t register the token, the domain status shows as Pending and you can’t delete it. This token automatically disappears when it expires, 90 days after you created it.
