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 $16.32 over five years by not staying put.
The cheapest single registrar for five years is Hostafrica at $93.95. Splitting the name across two registrars costs $77.63 — 17% less:
- Register at Porkbun 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.
