Why has my change not been picked up yet?

A new or edited DNS record is not always visible to the world the moment you save it. Here is how DMARCER keeps checking your domains, how to force a fresh check with Recheck now, and what to try if a change still has not shown up.

DNS changes are not always instant. They usually appear within minutes, but can occasionally take up to an hour, and longer with some providers.

Make the change, then use the Re-check Now button in the Domain management section, after a short wait. If it still is not showing after an hour, re-check the record for mistakes.
