IONOS

German hosting giant that uses €1-style first years to pull you into its hosting bundles. Fine if you read the renewal line; the cart works hard to sell you a website builder.

Where it wins

Very cheap first year on majors
EU invoicing and support

Where it costs you

Steep renewal cliffs
Aggressive bundling in checkout

one.com

one.com publishes its domain-price catalogue in one table with the renewal printed in the next column. Compare that renewal before following a first-year discount, and check whether an offer requires buying hosting as well.

Where it wins

Full public price list, renewal beside every price
Aggressive first-year and transfer discounts

Where it costs you

Renewal often several times the first year
Much of the pricing is bundled with hosting
Transfer promo is capped per customer
WHOIS privacy is not free

IONOS and one.com, answered

4 questions

Is IONOS cheaper than one.com?

On the 364 extensions both sell, one.com renews cheaper on 250, IONOS on 114. Across the 20 most registered of them, a year of renewals adds up to $662.30 at one.com and $564.00 at IONOS. On the first year alone, IONOS is cheaper on 119 and one.com on 245: a first-year discount says little about the years after it.

Which is cheaper for a .com domain, IONOS or one.com?

IONOS renews .com at $20.00 a year and one.com at $27.99. Three years — the first year, then two renewals, with the ICANN fee — come to $50.60 at IONOS and $69.57 at one.com.

Do IONOS and one.com include WHOIS privacy?

IONOS: free on eligible TLDs. one.com: not independently verified. Registry rules can make privacy unavailable on a particular extension at either.

How do I move a domain from IONOS to one.com?

Unlock the domain at IONOS, ask it for the transfer (auth) code, and start a transfer at one.com with that code. A transfer usually adds a year to the registration and is paid at the new shop's transfer price — $12.99 for a .com at one.com today. A domain registered or transferred in the last 60 days usually cannot move yet.
