About .codes

one honest minute

Identity Digital's catch-all for anything that compiles or ciphers — source code, dial codes, promo codes. The plural reads cleaner than the never-launched .code, and developers took to it for tooling and snippet sites. First-year promos are common, but the renewal settles near thirty dollars, so budget past the discount.

Typical use: dev tools, code repos, coupon sites. Right now the cheapest way in is $3.11 at Spaceship (promo — it renews at $63.14/yr), the cheapest renewal on the market is $44.39/yr at HOSTAFRICA, and the best five-year total is $184.55 via HOSTAFRICA. If you're moving an existing name, transfers start at $31.49 and normally include a one-year extension.

FAQ

.codes pricing
How much does a .codes domain cost?
Right now the cheapest verified first-year price for a .codes domain is $3.11 at Spaceship, and the cheapest verified renewal is $44.39 per year at HOSTAFRICA. First-year promo prices usually apply once — always check the renewal before you commit.
Why is the .codes renewal price different from the first-year price?
Registrars discount the first year to win customers, then charge the regular rate from year two. On .codes the steepest step-up on today's board is ×21.8 — that gap is exactly why Domain.Guru always prints the renewal beside the promo.
What is the cheapest way to keep a .codes domain for 5 years?
The lowest verified 5-year total today is $184.55 via HOSTAFRICA — first year $5.99, then $44.39 per year, ICANN fees included where they apply. Our default ranking sorts by the same formula, computed over 3 years.
Can I transfer a .codes domain to a cheaper registrar?
Yes — a transfer usually includes a 1-year extension. The cheapest independently published .codes transfer right now is $31.49 at one.com. Domains must typically be 60+ days old and unlocked, with a transfer code from the current registrar.
