I want to use a .JP domain for my shop
1 - Currently Shopify says "cannot buy .JP domains", is it because my account is trial? With a paying account, can I buy a .JP domain from Shopify admin center?
2 - If not, I'd have to connect my new .JP domain to Shopify - that's fine - but 2 questions
> In this case, is a SSL certificate automatically provided by Shopify?
> Does Email forwarding work when a domain is 3rd-party (not purchased via Shopify)?
Thank you
Solved! Go to the solution
This is an accepted solution.
@Bibip Welcome to the Shopify forum. to answer your question, yes, Shopify provides SSL and Email forwarding works even if it's a 3rd party domain.

1 - Currently Shopify says "cannot buy .JP domains", is it because my account is trial? With a paying account, can I buy a .JP domain from Shopify admin center?
In other words, can Shopify buy JP domains if I use a payed account?
Ive tried searching for a .jp domain in Shopify Domain, but they are not supported.
But it looks like its possible with a 3rd party domain provider. PLEASE confirm this with Shopify support first.
