Infomaniak

A Geneva host that runs its own data centres and publishes a price list most registrars would not: one API call per category returns first year, renewal and transfer across its catalogue, each with its tax-inclusive twin and its own currency label. Swiss prices, Swiss VAT stripped for comparison, and an EU buyer is charged their own country's rate at checkout.

Where it wins

  • First year, renewal and transfer all published, across its catalogue
  • Every price ships with its tax-inclusive twin, so the basis is arithmetic rather than a claim
  • Owns and runs its own Swiss data centres
  • Free WHOIS privacy

Where it costs you

  • The board here is the Swiss franc list; a US address gets a different and dearer one
  • Prices are quoted before 8.1% Swiss VAT, and an EU buyer pays their own national rate on top
  • A handful of renewals sit under registry cost and are dropped by this site's guards
  • A zero transfer entry is treated as unquoted, not a free annual transfer

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 — Infomaniak's on 1 Nov 2026, Porkbun's on 1 Nov 2026 — in US dollars before tax; the currency switcher converts them. How prices are read
