The whole price list. Both columns.

Every extension belongs to a registry that sets its own wholesale price — Verisign for .com, Identity Digital for dozens of newer ones, national bodies for country codes. Our price is that wholesale cost plus a thin, consistent margin. .ai costs more than .xyz at the source, not because of anything we add on top.

Right in the table above — it is the second number on every row, and the search results on the register page print it too. That placement is deliberate: the renewal is the real long-term price of a domain, and it belongs next to the headline number, not in a footnote you find next year.

On most generic extensions, yes — the transfer fee covers the move and adds a year to your existing expiry, making the effective cost of switching zero. Country extensions usually keep the original expiry date instead. The transfer page carries a per-extension table with the free-year column spelled out.

Listed prices are tax-exclusive because tax depends on where you are. Checkout itemises any applicable VAT or sales tax for your billing country before you confirm — the total on the pay button is the total on your statement, with no post-payment adjustments.

USD across the board for now — one stable reference everyone can compare. Multi-currency display arrives with the billing localisation already on our roadmap, and your card simply converts at its own rate in the meantime, as with any international purchase.

First-year offers currently put .xyz, .online and .site at $2.99 and .shop near it — genuine bargains for testing an idea. Check the renew column before committing a brand to one, though: a $2.99 first year with a $34.99 renewal suits an experiment, while .com's flat economics suit a decade.

None. The table price is the checkout price: no setup fee, no "ICANN fee" line item, no charge for privacy, DNS, forwarding or transfers out. The only money beyond this table is tax where law requires it, and checkout shows that before you pay, not after.

When registries move their wholesale rates — typically announced months ahead, at most annually for the major extensions. We pass changes through rather than padding margins quietly, and if a renewal price for a domain you own is going up, you hear it from us by email before it happens, with time to renew early at the old rate.

Registries subsidise year one on newer extensions to get names into circulation — that is how .store sells for $4.99 against a $49.99 renewal. It is a legitimate discount, not a trap, as long as the renewal is disclosed up front. Ours is, in the same row, in the same font size.

The WHOIS privacy column: "Free" means proxy data replaces yours in the public record automatically, a dash means that registry mandates publishing registrant details and no registrar can lawfully hide them. Country codes account for most dashes — .de, .sa and friends run their own disclosure rules.

Years two onward are charged at the renewal rate, so a five-year .com is one registration year plus four renewal years — exactly what staying registered would cost anyway, paid once. You are buying certainty and skipping four renewal reminders, not a bulk discount; registries do not wholesale time.

Yes — tell support which one. The catalog grows by demand, and a requested extension is usually live within days if a registry path exists. Niche country codes with paper-based processes can take longer or prove impractical, but you will get a straight answer either way rather than a ticket that ages quietly.

They track each other on most extensions because both include a year of registry time. Where promotions push the first-year registration below the transfer price, remember they are different products: registration creates a new name, a transfer moves one you already own and stacks its free year on your existing time.

They can — registries adjust wholesale rates and registrars worldwide pass them through; anyone promising renewal prices frozen forever is writing cheques the registry won't honour. What we commit to: advance email notice on any increase affecting your domains, and the option to renew up to ten years ahead at the current rate before it lands.

On the sticker, we sit with the honest mid-market — never the bait-and-switch bottom. On the second year, where domain pricing actually happens, we pull ahead: privacy free instead of $10–15, DNS free instead of metered, transfers out free instead of ransomed. Compare any registrar by their renewal column plus add-ons, and this table holds up.
