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

Porkbun

Porkbun keeps renewal prices low and prints them right next to the sale price — the pricing table is the marketing. Free WHOIS privacy and free SSL on everything.

Where it wins

  • Renewal shown beside every price
  • Consistently low renewals
  • Free privacy + SSL included

Where it costs you

  • Occasional promo requires a coupon code
  • Support is ticket-first

Prices fetched from each shop's own published list — Epik's on 21 Oct 2026, our last good read, Porkbun's on 1 Nov 2026 — in US dollars before tax; the currency switcher converts them. How prices are read
