==Can I override the price?==

+

A
premium domain
cost can range from the hundreds, to
the
thousands
.
There may be situations where
the cost
of the domain could exceed the balance of a registrar account, or require additional validation
to
confirm the customer is aware of the price they will be paying.

+

+

WHMCS has a hook that allows the override of the registration or renewal price of the domain being ordered. Additionally, the same hook can instruct the customer to Contact Support, or show the domain as unavailable.

+

A similar hook is available when recalculating
the recurring
renewal price for the domain using the Automatic Recalculation on Save in the Admin Area
.
