  Your domain expired on 2022-03-04. According to whois info your domain is in redemption, https://www.whois.com/whois/themodernsocietyagency.com.
  Normally Staff will be able to restore your domain, but you’ll have to pay a redemption fee of 80 USD, https://wordpress.com/support/domains/domain-expiration/#redemption-period

  Hi there,

  I checked and confirmed that themodernsocietyagency.com is now in a redemption period. The charge is an $80 late renewal fee in addition to the $18 we charge to renew the domain. Please confirm here if you agree to pay the fees and I will begin the domain restoration process along with providing a manual payment.

  Please visit the support page link for further instructions:

  Let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!
