What jionpd.com is showing right now

If you go to jionpd.com, you don’t land on a Pear Deck “enter your code” screen. The page is basically empty: it shows a generic copyright line and a link to a privacy policy.

That privacy policy is the more revealing part. It states the page is generated using Giant Panda services, and it describes a setup that’s typical of a parked domain (a domain that exists mainly to show ads or sponsored links, not to provide a real product). It explicitly references Google AdSense for Domains and also mentions conversion tracking pixels from common ad platforms.

So, as of now, jionpd.com looks like a parked/ad-monetized domain, not an official classroom tool.

Why people end up on jionpd.com in the first place

The reason this domain matters is the typo. A lot of students and teachers know joinpd.com as the place to enter a class code for Pear Deck. It’s easy to mistype “joinpd” as “jionpd” (swap the “o” and “i”), especially on phones.

That typo pattern is common on the internet: someone registers a near-miss domain and captures accidental traffic. Sometimes it’s harmless but annoying (ads). Sometimes it’s actively dangerous (phishing). The hard part is you often can’t tell which one you’re dealing with from a quick glance.

The official Pear Deck “join” flow (what you should use instead)

Pear Deck’s own help documentation tells students to either click a join link or go to joinpd.com and enter the join code.

When you visit joinpd.com, it routes into Pear Deck’s real join experience hosted on app.peardeck.com.

Pear Deck also provides official student login paths on its main site, which helps when you’re trying to confirm you’re in the right place and not on a lookalike page.

If you’re a student trying to join a session, the practical “safe default” is:

  • use the link your teacher provides, or
  • type joinpd.com carefully, then enter the code (not jionpd.com).

What the domain details suggest about jionpd.com

Public domain-summary tools list jionpd.com as:

  • registered in February 2018, and
  • expiring February 28, 2026, with registrar Sav.com,
  • using giantpanda.com nameservers, and
  • hosted on infrastructure that appears US-based.

None of that proves malicious intent by itself. But combined with the parked-domain privacy policy and ad-tech language, it supports the basic conclusion: jionpd.com isn’t the official Pear Deck join site, and it isn’t trying to behave like one.

Also worth noting: IPAddress.com includes an internal “not safe/legit” claim about the domain. I’d treat that as a third-party opinion, not a definitive verdict, but it’s still a signal to be cautious.

What can go wrong if you treat jionpd.com like JoinPD

Even if a typo domain is “just ads,” there are a few real risks:

  1. Accidental credential entry
    If a lookalike page ever asks you to sign in with Google/Microsoft, that’s where people get burned. Pear Deck’s join flow may require a Google or Microsoft login depending on teacher settings, so users are already primed to accept a login prompt.

  2. Ad tracking and data collection
    Parked pages commonly log basic device and request data, and the privacy policy for jionpd.com describes server logs and advertising cookies/tracking.

  3. Getting redirected somewhere sketchy
    Parked domains often show sponsored links that send you to unrelated sites. One wrong click and you’re off in a completely different place.

If you’re in a school setting, the simplest rule is: if you’re joining Pear Deck, don’t use anything except joinpd.com (or the direct Pear Deck join link your teacher shares).

Quick checks to confirm you’re on the real thing

When you’re trying to join a Pear Deck session:

  • If you typed the address, confirm it’s joinpd.com (spelled correctly).
  • It should take you into Pear Deck’s join experience (commonly on app.peardeck.com).
  • If you landed on a page that mostly talks about ads, cookies, or “disable your ad blocker,” that’s not the Pear Deck join screen. jionpd.com currently looks like that kind of destination.

What to do if you already visited jionpd.com

If you only opened the page and backed out, you’re probably fine. If you clicked ads or downloaded anything, that’s different.

Here’s a sensible response:

  • Close the tab.
  • Don’t enter passwords or school emails into anything that isn’t the official Pear Deck flow.
  • If you did enter credentials on a suspicious page, change the password and enable MFA (and tell your school IT/admin).
  • If a download happened, run an antivirus/endpoint scan and remove anything you don’t recognize.

For school IT teams: consider blocking known typo domains at the DNS/filter level, especially if students are regularly typing joinpd.com by hand.

Key takeaways

  • jionpd.com is not the official Pear Deck JoinPD site. It currently looks like a parked domain with ad-tech and a generic privacy policy.
  • The official student join instruction is joinpd.com (or the join link).
  • joinpd.com routes into Pear Deck’s join experience on app.peardeck.com.
  • Treat typo domains as untrusted and avoid entering school credentials unless you’re sure you’re on the real Pear Deck site.

FAQ

Is jionpd.com the same as joinpd.com?

No. Pear Deck’s official guidance points students to joinpd.com for entering a join code. jionpd.com is a different domain and currently does not present the Pear Deck join experience.

Is jionpd.com owned by Pear Deck?

Nothing on the site indicates it’s Pear Deck-owned. The privacy policy describes a parked-domain setup using Giant Panda services and ad technology, not a Pear Deck product page.

Why does jionpd.com have a privacy policy if it’s basically empty?

Parked domains still collect basic logs and often run advertising cookies/tracking. The privacy policy for jionpd.com explicitly discusses server logs and ad systems like Google AdSense for Domains.

What’s the safest way to join a Pear Deck session?

Use the join link your teacher shares, or type joinpd.com carefully and enter the session code there.

If I typed jionpd.com by mistake, should I worry?

If you just opened it and left, usually not. If you clicked ads, entered account details, or downloaded anything, take it seriously: change passwords, enable MFA, and alert your school IT/admin. The safer habit is to use joinpd.com only for Pear Deck sessions.
