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

Squarespace Domains

The successor to Google Domains' consumer portfolio now exposes its complete standard plan catalogue directly to the public domain-search client. Domain.Guru combines that feed with Squarespace's official TLD rules, so first-year discounts remain separate from the regular renewal and transfer price while multi-year or non-transferable products never enter the annual board.

Where it wins

Public USD catalogue with normal and current first-year prices for hundreds of TLDs
Free WHOIS privacy and a polished standalone domain dashboard
Official TLD guide documents minimum terms and transfer exclusions per extension

Where it costs you

Pricing is usually higher than domainer-first registrars
Some country-code transfers follow special rules and are deliberately omitted from comparisons
Taxes and available payment methods vary with the buyer's billing location

Prices fetched from each shop's own published list — Infomaniak's on 1 Nov 2026, Squarespace Domains's on 1 Nov 2026 — in US dollars before tax; the currency switcher converts them. How prices are read
