The verdict in prose

A dual-channel registrar with a very broad public retail matrix and a separate reseller program. The retail list is real, but Domain.Guru will not call every ccTLD amount annual until its term and transfer-year semantics are proven per product.

Where it wins
  • Very broad public registration, renewal and transfer matrix
  • Retail list is separate from its reseller program
Where it costs you
  • Term metadata is not present in the aggregate table
  • Zero and anomalous transfer values need per-TLD qualification
