Purchase a domain directly through Rocket and connect it to your app without visiting a separate registrar. Rocket uses IONOS to handle the purchase. You are redirected to IONOS to complete payment, and DNS is configured automatically when done.
Buying a domain through Rocket requires a paid plan (Pro or above).
