About Namecheap

Namecheap is an ICANN-accredited domain registrar and web host serving millions of domains alongside shared, VPS, and dedicated hosting, EasyWP managed WordPress, Private Email, and SSL certificates.

Track Namecheap status and outages here.

Over the past 30 days, PulsAPI has measured Namecheap uptime at 96.41%. Response times, incident history, and SLA tracking for Namecheap are available on the PulsAPI dashboard.

Namecheap Status FAQ

Is Namecheap down right now?

The verdict at the top of this page comes from the latest poll of the official Namecheap status feed and refreshes automatically, so you are not looking at a stale cached answer. PulsAPI re-checks a vendor every 60 seconds whenever it is not fully operational, or has changed status in the last 30 minutes, so an incident is always on the fastest cadence. Vendors that are stable and rarely watched are re-checked every 5 to 20 minutes instead.

What should I do if Namecheap is not working?

Check the component list on this page first to see if your failure matches a known outage. If it does, you can report the issue for other engineers, follow the incident timeline for vendor updates, and run any fallback your app supports until Namecheap recovers.

How do I check Namecheap uptime history?

PulsAPI tracks Namecheap uptime over 30, 60, and 90-day rolling windows. The current 30-day uptime is 96.41%. The 90-day uptime strip on this page is public: no account needed. A free account adds alerts whenever Namecheap changes state, plus 15 days of incident detail; Pro extends that to 90 days and Business to 13 months.

How fast does PulsAPI detect Namecheap outages?

PulsAPI reads the official Namecheap status page. PulsAPI re-checks a vendor every 60 seconds whenever it is not fully operational, or has changed status in the last 30 minutes, so an incident is always on the fastest cadence. Vendors that are stable and rarely watched are re-checked every 5 to 20 minutes instead. Alerts reach Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, PagerDuty, or email within seconds of detection.

Does PulsAPI track individual Namecheap components?

Yes. PulsAPI monitors 10 individual Namecheap components, so you can see which service or region is affected instead of a generic "service degraded" banner.

Can I get alerts when Namecheap goes down?

Yes. Create a free account and subscribe to Namecheap: the free plan covers three services with unlimited email alerts and no monthly notification cap. Paid plans lift the monitor limit entirely (Pro and above do not meter how many vendors you watch) and route the same alerts into Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, PagerDuty and webhooks.

How do I report an issue with Namecheap to the community?

Click "Report an issue" at the top of this page, pick the issue type and severity, and optionally add your region and a short note. Reports are anonymous and help other engineers spot Namecheap problems early. Official status pages often lag real incidents by 10 to 20 minutes.

Is there a free way to monitor Namecheap?

Yes. The free plan covers 3 monitored services with unlimited email alerts, permanently, so Namecheap plus two more costs nothing. Every new account also opens with a 30-day Business trial (unlimited monitors, Slack alerts, SLA reporting) with no credit card.

Track Namecheap with the rest of your stack

2463+ vendors in one dashboard, and an email the moment any of them changes state. Three free, and no monitor limit at all from $29/mo, unlike the alternatives, which keep charging by the monitor.
