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
INWX
A German registrar with one of the strongest public price feeds in the market: an extensive catalogue, separate lifecycle terms, restore, trustee, privacy and promotion metadata in one anonymous response. Domain.Guru ranks only rows whose registration, renewal and transfer each buy a comparable one-year term; no-year transfers remain outside that ranking instead of masquerading as bargains.
Where it wins
- Official anonymous JSON feed with retail lifecycle prices
- Independent periods and prices for registration, renewal and transfer
- Promotion windows, privacy, trustee and restore metadata are explicit
Where it costs you
- Hundreds of transfers do not add a year and therefore are not mixed into the standard transfer ranking
- Volume tiers exist separately and are deliberately excluded
- EU VAT depends on buyer status and destination
