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 $3.61 over five years by not staying put.
The cheapest single registrar for five years is Vebonix at $118.00. Splitting the name across two registrars costs $114.39 — 3% less:
- Register at GoDaddy for the first year.
- Transfer to Vebonix before it renews. An inbound transfer adds a year, so this covers year two.
- Renew at Vebonix 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 .pub name is free
We do not hold live availability. This opens Porkbun's own search for your name under .pub in a new tab, so the answer comes from a registrar rather than from us.

.pub frequently asked questions
01How much does a .pub domain cost?
The cheapest first year we found is $19.99 at GoDaddy. Renewal matters more: the cheapest renewal is $23.60 at Vebonix, so five years costs $114.39.
02Does .pub get more expensive after the first year?
Renewal is 18% above the first year, so what you see at sign-up is close to what you keep paying.
03What is the cheapest way to hold a .pub for five years?
Register at GoDaddy, then transfer to Vebonix before the first renewal — an inbound transfer adds a year. That costs $114.39 against $118.00 at the cheapest single registrar, saving $3.61.
04Who runs the .pub registry?
Dog Beach, LLC. Registrars sell .pub names on the registry's behalf; the registry sets the wholesale price.
05Is anyone allowed to register a .pub domain?
We have no record of an eligibility restriction on .pub. Registries can change policy, so confirm at the registrar before buying.
