.xyz domain prices: register, renew and transfer

.xyz is a generic top-level domain.

Among the 4 registrars with a listed .xyz renewal price, the lowest is $13.00 (read 2026-10-08) per year at Vercel Domains. The first year there is listed at $1.99 (read 2026-10-08), $11.01 less than a renewal year. Registering there and renewing twice costs $27.99 (read 2026-10-08) over three years. The highest listed renewal price is $22.99 (read 2026-10-08) per year at Hover, $9.99 more per year (same dates).

Over five years (the first year plus four renewals) the lowest cost is $53.99 (read 2026-10-08) at Vercel Domains.

5-year cost = first-year price + 4 x renew. The first-year price is the first-year sale price when the registrar's page showed one on the price date (column 'First-year sale'); otherwise it is the regular register price. The row marked 'lowest 5-year cost' has the lowest such total among the registrars compared here, nothing more. A sale can end at any time, and then the first year costs the regular price.

3-year cost = register + 2 x renew, using the regular register price and no sale price. Sources are the registrars' own public price pages, named as plain text.

Notes on the .xyz prices

• Vercel Domains, read 2026-10-08: The page lists $1.99 as the registration price with no 'normally' price next to it; renewal is $13.00, so later years cost more than the first.
• Porkbun, read 2026-10-08: First-year sale: registration is $2.04 today (pricing endpoint); the regular registration price $14.21 is from the price list page, which labels the sale '1st Yr Sale!'.
• NearlyFreeSpeech.NET, read 2026-10-08: The registration cell shows '$4.39 $18.89'; the page says discounts are shown next to the regular price, so $18.89 is stored as the regular price and $4.39 as the promo price. WHOIS privacy is a paid extra at this registrar.
• Hover, read 2026-10-08: Page lists one price under 'Registrations, Renewals, & Transfers'.
