Cheapest first year right now is $0.81 at Spaceship, but it renews 727% higher — the sign-up price is not the price you keep paying.
All 92 registrars, cheapest first
ICANN’s $0.18 fee is listed separately where the registrar excludes it from the headline price. Sort any column, or hide the ones you do not need.

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 $1.08 over five years by not staying put.
The cheapest single registrar for five years is Hostafrica at $28.69. Splitting the name across two registrars costs $27.61 — 4% less:
- Register at Spaceship for the first year.
- Transfer to Hostafrica before it renews. An inbound transfer adds a year, so this covers year two.
- Renew at Hostafrica 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.
