*55 extensions · prices per year in USD*

Prices in US dollars per year, paid in crypto (BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC) from your balance. On most gTLDs (.com, .net, .org and the newer extensions), a transfer adds one year to the registration. WHOIS privacy: *Free* = included at no cost. The same grid is in [pricing.json](https://buydomainscrypto.com/pricing.json). Prices are for a standard registration in your name. Option [Registered in our name](https://buydomainscrypto.com/registered-in-our-name/): +$90 a year per domain, on top.

**[In our name only](https://buydomainscrypto.com/registered-in-our-name/)**: sold only registered in our name (proxy registration), so the registry and WHOIS show DomaineGoat LLC, never you. The price shown includes the $90/year for it.

## What do the columns mean?

- **1st year**: the price of a new registration for one year.
- **Renewal**: the price of each following year. This is what you pay year after year.
- **Transfer**: the price to move a domain from another registrar. On most gTLDs it also adds one year to the expiry date.
- **WHOIS privacy**: whether your contact details can be hidden from public WHOIS and RDAP lookups. See [WHOIS privacy](https://buydomainscrypto.com/whois-privacy/).
- **Restrictions**: rules set by the registry, such as residency in the EU, a US link, or a minimum period of 2 years.

## How are the prices built? Wholesale cost + a small margin

Each price is the registry's wholesale fee, plus the ICANN fee of $0.20 on gTLDs, plus a small margin. We do not sell below cost in the first year to recover the loss at renewal.

The best public measure of the wholesale floor is Cloudflare Registrar. It says it charges what the registry and ICANN charge, with no markup. The table puts those floors next to our prices for the 9 extensions people ask about most.

### Wholesale floor vs BuyDomainsCrypto price (USD per year)

| Extension | Public wholesale floor (registry + ICANN) | BuyDomainsCrypto, 1st year | BuyDomainsCrypto, renewal |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| .com | $10.46 today; $11.17 from 1 November 2026 | $11.49 | $11.49 |
| .net | $11.86 (Cloudflare); registry fee $10.91, then $12.00 from 1 March 2027 | $12.19 | $12.19 |
| .org | $8.50 first year, $11.20 renewal (Cloudflare); registry fee $11.00 since 1 June 2026 | $8.79 | $11.49 |
| .io | $32.00 first year, $50.00 renewal (Cloudflare) | $32.99 | $50.49 |
| .co | $30.00 (Cloudflare) | $30.69 | $30.69 |
| .xyz | $11.20 renewal (Cloudflare); first-year registry fee not confirmed | $11.49 | $11.49 |
| .ai | $80.00 per year, 2-year minimum (Cloudflare) | $81.99 | $81.99 |
| .app | $8.20 first year, $14.20 renewal (Cloudflare) | $8.49 | $14.49 |
| .dev | $8.20 first year, $12.20 renewal (Cloudflare) | $8.49 | $12.49 |

*Prices checked on October 8, 2026.*

Floors as of 8 October 2026. Cloudflare figures: its at-cost prices, per cfdomainpricing.com. Registry fees: Verisign and Public Interest Registry, as reported by osir.com, Domain Name Wire and DomainIncite. Sources are at the bottom of the page.

## Why does the .com price change on 1 November 2026?

Because Verisign, the .com registry, raises its wholesale fee from $10.26 to $10.97 on 1 November 2026. With the ICANN fee of $0.20, the floor that every registrar pays goes from $10.46 to $11.17.

- Verisign raised the .com fee by 7% each September from 2021 to 2024.
- There was no increase in 2025.
- Our .com price, $11.49/year, already sits above the new floor. The published grid is valid until 31 December 2026.

Full story and history: [.com price increase, November 2026](https://buydomainscrypto.com/news/com-price-increase-november-2026/).

**.net follows on 1 March 2027.** Verisign raises the .net fee from $10.91 to $12.00. Our .net price, $12.19/year, will be reviewed before that date. Details: [.net price increase, March 2027](https://buydomainscrypto.com/news/net-price-increase-march-2027/).

## Which extensions cost the same to renew?

Five popular extensions have one price for the first year and every renewal:

- **.com**: $11.49 / $11.49
- **.net**: $12.19 / $12.19
- **.co**: $30.69 / $30.69
- **.xyz**: $11.49 / $11.49
- **.ai**: $81.99 / $81.99 per year, 2 years at a time

Four start lower, because the registry offers a lower first-year fee, then renew at the normal fee:

- **.org**: $8.79, then $11.49
- **.io**: $32.99, then $50.49
- **.app**: $8.49, then $14.49
- **.dev**: $8.49, then $12.49

Compare the renewal, not only the first year. As of 8 October 2026, Namecheap listed .com at $6.99 for the first year with a new-customer promo code and $14.98 to renew, per domainoffer.net. The full comparison is in our [crypto domain price index](https://buydomainscrypto.com/data/crypto-domain-price-index/).

## How much does a domain cost over 5 years?

Add the first year to the renewals. Here is the formula for the most common extensions:

- **.com, 5 years**: $11.49 + 4 renewals at $11.49
- **.net, 5 years**: $12.19 + 4 renewals at $12.19
- **.org, 5 years**: $8.79 + 4 renewals at $11.49
- **.io, 5 years**: $32.99 + 4 renewals at $50.49
- **.app, 5 years**: $8.49 + 4 renewals at $14.49
- **.ai, 4 years**: 2 years at $81.99 + 2 years at $81.99 (the registry sells .ai 2 years at a time)

The network fee of your crypto transfer comes on top. It goes to the blockchain, not to us. A USDT transfer on Tron (TRC-20) or a Solana transfer usually costs less than an Ethereum transfer: see [networks and fees](https://buydomainscrypto.com/pay-with/).

## How is a domain transfer priced?

A transfer costs the price in the Transfer column: $11.49 for a .com, $12.19 for a .net. On gTLDs such as .com, .net and .org, the transfer adds one year to the expiry date, so you lose no time already paid.

Some country extensions handle transfers in their own way. Ask support before you start if your domain is not a gTLD. The steps are in the guide [transfer a domain and pay in crypto](https://buydomainscrypto.com/guides/transfer-domain-pay-with-crypto/).

## How payment works

Prices are in US dollars. The crypto amount is calculated when you top up, and the rate is locked for 30 minutes.

1. **Top up $25 or more** — Choose the amount and the coin (BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC). The crypto amount and its rate are locked for 30 minutes.
2. **Send it to the address shown, on the exact network** — The payment page shows our deposit address for the coin and network you picked: BTC on Bitcoin, USDT on Tron (TRC-20) or Ethereum (ERC-20), USDC on Ethereum (ERC-20), ETH on Ethereum, SOL on Solana, LTC on Litecoin. Send only that coin on that network: funds sent on another network or in another coin can’t be recovered. The network fee comes on top of the amount.
3. **Send the exact amount shown, then click “I’ve sent the payment”** — Each top-up has its own exact amount (down to the last decimals): that is how your payment is found and matched to your account automatically. Nothing else to send us.
4. **Credited after the network confirmations** — Your balance is credited once the network has confirmed the transaction. Usual times:
5. **One balance for every domain** — If you started from a domain search, the domains in your cart are registered automatically as soon as the top-up is credited. What is left stays on your balance for renewals, transfers and new domains. Unused balance stays on your account and never expires, and it pays for new domains, renewals and transfers, but it is not refundable.

| Crypto | Network | Confirmations | Usual time |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Bitcoin (BTC) | Bitcoin | 2 | ≈ 20 min |
| Tether (USDT) | Tron (TRC-20) | 20 | ≈ 1 min |
| Tether (USDT) | Ethereum (ERC-20) | 12 | ≈ 5 min |
| USD Coin (USDC) | Ethereum (ERC-20) | 12 | ≈ 5 min |
| Ethereum (ETH) | Ethereum | 12 | ≈ 5 min |
| Solana (SOL) | Solana | 1 | ≈ 1 min |
| Litecoin (LTC) | Litecoin | 6 | ≈ 15 min |

Closed the tab? The pending top-up stays under Billing in your account: open it to see the address and the exact amount again.

## Domain prices: FAQ

### How much is a .com domain paid in crypto?

A .com costs $11.49/year at BuyDomainsCrypto, and $11.49/year to renew. You pay it in crypto (BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC) from a prepaid balance, with no KYC. WHOIS privacy is free. A transfer costs $11.49 and adds one year to the expiry date. The price sits close to the wholesale floor of $11.17 that applies from 1 November 2026.

### Are there hidden fees on top of the price?

No. The ICANN fee of $0.20 is already included in every gTLD price, and WHOIS privacy is free where the registry allows it. The only extra cost is the network fee of your crypto transfer, which goes to the blockchain, not to us. The minimum top-up is $25, and what you do not spend stays on your balance for renewals.

### Why is a .io cheaper the first year than at renewal?

Because the .io registry charges less for a new registration than for a renewal. The public floor is $32.00 the first year and $50.00 to renew, per Cloudflare's at-cost prices as of 8 October 2026. Our prices follow it: $32.99 the first year, $50.49 to renew. Plan your budget on the renewal price.

### Why is a .ai domain sold for 2 years?

Because the .ai registry sets a minimum term of 2 years for registrations and renewals. The price is $81.99/year, so a new .ai is paid for 2 years at once. The same rule applies at most registrars. Read the guide [why .ai has a 2-year minimum](https://buydomainscrypto.com/guides/ai-domain-2-year-minimum/) for the background.

### Will my .com renewal cost more after 1 November 2026?

Our grid is valid until 31 December 2026, and our .com price of $11.49/year is already above the new wholesale floor of $11.17. If a price changes, this page, [pricing.json](https://buydomainscrypto.com/pricing.json) and the [changelog](https://buydomainscrypto.com/changelog/) show it. The registry sets the floor; we only add a small margin on top.

### Why don't you sell .com for $1 the first year?

Because a .com costs every registrar at least $10.46 today, and $11.17 from 1 November 2026. A first-year price below that is a promotion, and the following years are charged at the normal renewal price. We prefer one honest price: $11.49 the first year and $11.49 to renew, with no promo code needed.

### Do prices change with the price of Bitcoin?

No. Prices are fixed in US dollars. When you top up, the payment page converts the dollar amount into the coin you chose and locks the rate for 30 minutes. With USDT or USDC, the amount to send is the dollar amount. Once credited, your balance is in dollars and does not move with the market.

### Can I download the price list?

Yes. Every price on this page is published in [pricing.json](https://buydomainscrypto.com/pricing.json): extension, first year, renewal, transfer, WHOIS privacy, restrictions and minimum years, in US dollars per year. Each extension also has its own page under [domain extensions](https://buydomainscrypto.com/tld/). The date of the last check is 8 October 2026.

### Which crypto is cheapest to pay with?

USDT on Tron (TRC-20) or SOL on Solana usually cost the least to send for a small top-up. ERC-20 tokens and ETH pay Ethereum gas, which changes with network load. Bitcoin fees depend on how busy the network is. The domain price is the same whatever coin you use. Compare them on [pay with crypto](https://buydomainscrypto.com/pay-with/).
