Cloudflare
Cloudflare Registrar sells domains at registry wholesale cost plus the ICANN fee — no markup, no promos, no games. The catch: your domain must use Cloudflare's nameservers, and not every TLD is supported.
Where it wins
- At-cost pricing, permanently
- Renewal equals registration — no cliff
- Free WHOIS privacy and solid DNS
Where it costs you
- Requires Cloudflare nameservers
- Smaller TLD catalog
- No promos — first year is rarely the cheapest
Epik
Epik prices close to wholesale and barely promotes: on most extensions the first year and the renewal are the same number, and only a couple of promotions run at a time. The prices here are the standard tier — Epik also quotes cheaper rates to accounts already holding fifty or two hundred domains, which is a price most readers cannot get.
Where it wins
- Among the lowest standing prices anywhere
- First year usually equals the renewal — no cliff
- Full price list served publicly
Where it costs you
- Cheaper tiers exist but require 50+ domains held
- Prices published without naming a currency on the page
- Lighter tooling than the majors
Prices fetched from each shop's own published list — Cloudflare's on 1 Nov 2026, Epik's on 21 Oct 2026, our last good read — in US dollars before tax; the currency switcher converts them. How prices are read
