All prices in USD for a one-year term, as published by each registrar. Registry and ICANN fees are included where the registrar includes them; taxes are not. Confirm at checkout before buying.
Save $14.17 over five years by not staying put.
The cheapest single registrar for five years is GKG at $65.85. Splitting the name across two registrars costs $51.68 — 22% less:
- Register at Namecheap for the first year.
- Transfer to GKG before it renews. An inbound transfer adds a year, so this covers year two.
- Renew at GKG for years three to five.
Registries require a name to be 60 days old before it can transfer, so plan the move for renewal time rather than straight after registering.

Check whether a .biz name is free
We do not hold live availability. This opens Porkbun's own search for your name under .biz in a new tab, so the answer comes from a registrar rather than from us.

.biz frequently asked questions
01How much does a .biz domain cost?
The cheapest first year we found is $0.99 at Namecheap. Renewal matters more: the cheapest renewal is $13.17 at GKG, so five years costs $51.68.
02Why is .biz renewal so much more than the first year?
The first year is a promotional price. Renewal runs 1230% higher, which is the price you pay every year after. Registrars advertise the first number.
03What is the cheapest way to hold a .biz for five years?
Register at Namecheap, then transfer to GKG before the first renewal — an inbound transfer adds a year. That costs $51.68 against $65.85 at the cheapest single registrar, saving $14.17.
04Who runs the .biz registry?
Registry Services, LLC. Registrars sell .biz names on the registry's behalf; the registry sets the wholesale price.
05Is anyone allowed to register a .biz domain?
We have no record of an eligibility restriction on .biz. Registries can change policy, so confirm at the registrar before buying.
