Many registrars allow renewal of domain names without authentication (you're unable to change any of the domain settings, however) -- some just let you do it, others it's a process, e.g. https://www.namecheap.com/support/knowledgebase/article.aspx...
That requires an account created before renewal even though it's not the same account as the domain name.
This may be useful for gifting a renewal or something like that.
