If you are having trouble logging in to your customer account, follow the guide Administration – Login Problems.

In this article, you will learn:


Creating a customer account

To create a new customer account, we require:

  • A working email address, which also serves as your login name. If you lose your password, we also send instructions for resetting it to this email.
  • A phone number that can receive SMS. We use your phone to verify your identity if you do not have access to your login email. 

Creating and maintaining a customer account is free of charge. 

If you want to store credit on your account to pay for services, create a Credit Account.

Create a new customer account using the registration form ⧉.

To register, you can: 

Shared registration

If you have an account with Facebook, Google, MojeID or LinkedIn, you can use it to quickly register with WEDOS. In the login form, click the icon of the service you want to use and follow its instructions.

Registration form

You can also create a new customer account by filling in the registration form:

  1. Vyplňte pečlivě požadované údaje (označené červenou hvězdičkou) a zaškrtněte povinné souhlasy.
  2. Pass the reCaptcha check.
  3. Click the Create Account.

During registration, you also enter a password. It must meet the following requirements:

  • at least 8 and at most 50 characters long
  • contains at least one lowercase character, at least one uppercase character, at least one digit and at least one of the following special characters: !\”#()+,-./:;<=>?@[]^_`{|}~*
  • does not contain these strings: 12345, aaaaa, admin, heslo, passwd, password

To generate a secure password, click the key icon in the field Password.

After the account is created, the system asks you to verify the phone number you entered. Enter the verification SMS code, or postpone the verification until later.

If everything is in order, the system creates the new account and we send you an email with further instructions from wedos@wedos.com, which also verifies that your email address works. 

Activate your account by clicking the link in the email (https://login.wedos.com/activate/…).

If the email with instructions does not arrive within 10 minutes, check your SPAM folder. If there is a typo in the email address, create a new customer account with the correct address. 

After activating your account, log in. If you postponed the SMS verification during registration, the system sends a verification SMS to the phone number you provided at registration.

If the message does not arrive, have it sent again, or change the phone number using the link.

Common problems

Common problems with a customer account include:

Incorrectly entered email or phone number

Problem: I made a typo in my registration email address or phone number.

Solution: If the typo is in the email address, create a new account with the correct address. If the typo is in the phone number, postpone its verification until after authorization, where you will be able to correct the phone number.

Verification SMS does not arrive

Problem: The phone number is definitely correct, but the verification SMS does not arrive.

Cause: The most common cause is blocking by the mobile operator or the (smart)phone.

Solution: On a smartphone, try temporarily switching to a different SMS app. If that does not help, contact Support.

Forgotten login details

Problem: We have forgotten the login name and/or password.

Solution: Support can help you with your login name; write to us via the form and ask for help. Include the services that should be in your account.

You can change your password at this link ⧉.

For more detailed help, see the article Administration – Troubleshooting Login Problems.

Services are not visible in the account

Problem: After logging in, we do not see our services in the list.

Cause: Common causes include:

  • You are checking services of the wrong type
  • The services are:
    • deleted
    • in a different account
    • with a different provider

Solution: Make sure you are viewing the correct list (for example Domains, not Webhosting). If you are, and you still cannot see the services, ask Support ⧉to check. Include the names of the services.

The account owner has died

Problem: We want to take over the account and its services as part of inheritance proceedings.

Solution: If the account owner dies (e.g. a domain holder, the customer who ordered Webhosting, or another service), these services must be included in the inheritance proceedings. Only on the basis of a legally binding inheritance decision can we transfer the services or make them accessible to a new authorized person.

If you are not sure whether a particular domain, hosting or other service really belonged to the deceased, or whether you are its rightful heir, please contact us first. Based on the information you provide, we will check which services were kept in the account and let you know how to proceed, before you possibly open inheritance proceedings.

To resolve such a situation, please contact us using the contact form ⧉ – describe the situation in your message and provide as much information as possible about the services that may be affected. Our colleagues from the authorization department will check the status of the account and services and reply to the email address you provide with further instructions.
