The verdict in prose
A large African hosting and domains group with meaningful regional reach. Its South African storefront publishes annual registration, renewal and transfer together; Domain.Guru removes the stated domestic VAT and converts ZAR through the dated FX snapshot.
Where it wins
- More than 400 comparable annual lifecycle rows
- Useful regional TLD and support coverage
Where it costs you
- Checkout defaults, privacy and payment methods remain unobserved
- Country-specific storefronts and currencies still require careful normalization

FAQ
HOSTAFRICA, answeredIs HOSTAFRICA cheap for domains?
HOSTAFRICA currently has the lowest renewal price on 102 of the 405 extensions we track for it. A large African hosting and domains group with meaningful regional reach. Its South African storefront publishes annual registration, renewal and transfer together; Domain.Guru removes the stated domestic VAT and converts ZAR through the dated FX snapshot.
Does HOSTAFRICA include WHOIS privacy?
We have not independently verified whether HOSTAFRICA includes, charges for or supports WHOIS privacy. Unknown is not treated as paid.
Does HOSTAFRICA auction expired domains?
The expiry-handling review was completed 2026-08-30, but the evidence remains inconclusive. Current support documents renewal and redemption but not the registrar's complete final-disposition route. This is neutral in the registrar honesty score: no bonus and no penalty.
What is HOSTAFRICA's registrar honesty score?
85/100. The fixed transparency base is 85/100, with 70/70 points directly observed, and the verified pre-release-policy adjustment is 0. Unobserved criteria (checkout defaults) use disclosed neutral half-scores; they are neither normalized away nor treated as failures. Current market wins are reported separately. The full rubric is on our method page.
