Hi, @shadetreeco.
Thank you for reaching out and sharing your feedback on this.
To confirm, the error that can appear when purchasing a domain usually relates to the factors mentioned previously in this thread, such as:
- Formatting issues with a phone number. In some cases, this can be tied to the dial code for the country being incorrect, or formatted differently than expected. To check if this is the case, please edit your phone number in the'Settings > General' section of your admin, and ensure to include the correct dial code for your country.
- The way the billing address is formatted. Please make sure that your address includes a number, and a street name that isn't abbreviated. For example, if you're using'Road' or Street', make sure to type these words in full, and not abbreviate them to'Rd' or 'St'.
When the phone number and billing address are formatted to fit the above requirements, this error usually should not appear. However, if an error does still appear while trying to purchase a domain, our Support team can certainly help look into this further and provide more assistance on the next steps. With this in mind, if you're receiving this error on your own store, please let me know and I'll be glad to help determine how to resolve this, and ensure a domain purchase can be completed on your account.
In the meantime though, I appreciate you sharing your feedback on this, and voicing your concerns. I'm going to share your thoughts with our team regarding this error, and outline the impact this has had for you, and other businesses. If we make any changes to the workflow of purchasing domains from Shopify, we will outline these updates on our changelog, as well as our Announcements page, to keep you in the loop.
Please let me know if you need further assistance with this - I'm glad to help!

I have exactly the same issue and do not want to pay more for domain by getting it externally. I checked all the formatting - you guys should finally fix it, it's outrageous that I cannot make another purchase despite all details being the same as when I have bought the 1st domain. Please advise ASAP!

One more customer banging my head on the walls trying to sort this thing out.
Correct dial code phone number format, correct address format, it does not even go to payment option so no question of funds being there or not.

If you want to purchase a domain you have to go to a third party provider. Only way to get one as shopify cannot provide you one. There are no solutions to this thread because Shopify doesn't have one. No one has came back here to say problem solved. Again this issue has been going on since September 2019.
Please I am having the same exact problem. Can you please email me with further info. I already tried all the steps that were recommended. This is an ongoing issue that has never been fixed.
HI Rae,
The same problem is happening to me too, im wondering if you could help me. ive checked my phone number and written street out fully.
kind regards
Hi, @saludboutique and @linter786!
I can certainly help further with the troubles you're experiencing. I'll send you each an email shortly with more details.
@awais7777, thank you for sharing this workaround. I'm glad to hear this worked on your end, and I appreciate you posting this information for others to try out, too.
Cheers!
