I have been using Porkbun for domain name registration until now, but I wanted to move to a European registrar. When I registered a domain, I received this email. Is it normal?. If not what registrar do you use? I have filled in my name and address while registering an account and have 2fa on. It’s an id verifier app.

The app https://apps.apple.com/us/app/infomaniak-kcheck/id1500022928

To infomaniaks credit they gave me a refund instantly when i asked.

    Yes, this is normal. The alternative is having your domain stolen and held ransom by someone who pretends to be you. Usually they do have an alternative method though, using some other 2fa like a yubikey.

      for that you really dont need ID verification. that and 2FA serve entirely different purposes. ID verification is to ensure you are not hiding your identity. 2FA is to ensure that you are really the account owner.
