How to start
Sign in to start monitoring on the free plan. To upgrade, open the plan page and choose a plan: you pay through our payment provider, Polar, and the new limits apply as soon as the payment goes through.
Just want a quick look? The free scan checks one domain once and needs no signup.
What counts as a host?
A host is a hostname you add by hand to a domain, such as vpn.example.com or mail.example.com, so Nameward can check the certificate it serves. Limits count hosts across all your domains. Certificates Nameward finds in Certificate Transparency logs are listed for you and don't use up host slots.
What happens when I reach a limit?
Nothing stops. Everything you already monitor keeps being checked and alerted on; you just can't add more until you have room. If you need more, upgrade on the plan page, or, beyond 100 domains, contact us about Enterprise.
How does client grouping work for MSPs?
On the MSP plan, you group domains under clients, up to 25. Each client's findings are kept together, and alert channels can be limited to one client, so each client's alerts reach the right people.
What is supplier watch?
On Protect and MSP, you add the domains your suppliers email you from. Nameward checks them for lookalikes every few hours and alerts you when one appears that can send email, so your team knows before an invoice arrives from it. It also shows whether the supplier's own domain can be spoofed, for information; that never alerts, since it's theirs to fix.
What do the PDF reports contain?
Where every domain stands, what needs doing and how to fix it, which alerts were opened and fixed during the month, and any lookalike domains found. Paid plans get one each month with the monthly summary, and can download it any time. On MSP there's one per client, branded with your company name, logo and colour, with no mention of Nameward, ready to forward to the client.
Do you have an Enterprise plan?
Yes. If you need more than 100 domains, contact us and we'll set limits and pricing to fit.
Can I cancel?
Yes, at any time from the plan page. You keep your plan until the end of the period you've paid for, then the account moves to the free plan; nothing you monitor is deleted. If you're not happy with your first payment for a paid plan, ask within 14 days for a full refund. The details are in the Terms of Service.
