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
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 — INWX'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
