Gandi

A veteran French registrar with exceptionally broad ccTLD coverage. Prices climbed after the 2023 acquisition; the catalogue depth remains its strongest reason to use it.

Where it wins

  • Huge ccTLD catalog
  • EU billing, SEPA, mature ops

Where it costs you

  • Steep post-acquisition price rises
  • Mailbox no longer bundled

Hostinger

A mass-market registrar with a surprisingly useful first-party pricing endpoint behind its public TLD catalogue. The feed exposes purchase, first-year, renewal, transfer, currency, coupon and minimum-term fields. Domain.Guru refuses the famous $0.01-style headlines when they require multiple years and ranks the ordinary one-year price instead.

Where it wins

  • Public registration, renewal and transfer rows in native USD
  • Minimum term and multi-year deal metadata prevent teaser-price traps
  • Free privacy is flagged per extension in the source feed

Where it costs you

  • Many lowest headlines require a two- or three-year purchase
  • The feed is a storefront contract, so structural canaries are essential
  • VAT is added according to billing location
