TOKYO.DISCOUNT dates back to February 2, 2015; its registration is valid until February 2, 2018. That makes the domain about 11 years old. 1API GmbH (IANA ID 1387) manages the name, which is past its expiry date at the moment. Its record is locked against unauthorised transfer. The registrant is listed in Japan. Its nameservers are gdns1.interlink.or.jp and gdns2.interlink.or.jp. A registrar transfer moves the management of a domain from one company to another without changing the domain name itself. Managed DNS providers are often used for speed, security and protection against attacks. Domains that are not renewed before their expiry date normally enter a grace and redemption period before they can be registered again. The creation date shows when the name was first registered, while the expiry date shows how long the current registration has been paid for. Privacy services replace the owner's contact details in the public record with those of a proxy, which is common for personal registrations. Renewals are usually made for one to ten years at a time, so an expiry date far in the future shows a long-term commitment to the name. Nameservers decide where a domain's DNS is hosted, so a change of nameservers usually means the website or email moved to a new provider. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details. An older registration date is often seen as a sign of an established website, although age alone says nothing about who owns it today. Status flags such as transfer or delete locks are set by the registrar or registry to protect a domain from unauthorised changes.

Whois Data Center has 3 historical WHOIS snapshots for TOKYO.DISCOUNT. The newest snapshot was taken on July 9, 2017. A long history with few changes usually points to a stable owner, while frequent changes can signal a transfer or a resale. Buyers often review the history of a domain before purchasing it, to see past owners and registrars. Each snapshot is a dated copy of the public WHOIS record as it looked when it was collected. Security teams use WHOIS history to spot suspicious ownership changes and to link related domains. These records help track changes in registration details, ownership signals and DNS over time. Snapshots are collected over time, so the gaps between them depend on how often the record was checked. Historical records are useful for due diligence, brand protection and investigating the background of a website. Comparing snapshots makes it easy to see when the registrar, nameservers or status of a domain changed.

The record was updated in 16 fields between February 4, 2015 and July 9, 2017. Status flags were updated: clientTransferProhibited was added and addPeriod and renewPeriod were removed.
