FAQ

.rw pricing
How much does a .rw domain cost?
Right now the cheapest verified first-year price for a .rw domain is $22.00 at Truehost Global, and the cheapest verified renewal is $24.00 per year at Truehost Global. First-year promo prices usually apply once — always check the renewal before you commit.
Why is the .rw 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 .rw the steepest step-up on today's board is ×1.8 — that gap is exactly why Domain.Guru always prints the renewal beside the promo.
What is the cheapest way to keep a .rw domain for 5 years?
The lowest verified 5-year total today is $118.00 via Truehost Global — first year $22.00, then $24.00 per year, ICANN fees included where they apply. Our default ranking sorts by the same formula, computed over 3 years.
Can I transfer a .rw domain to a cheaper registrar?
Yes — a transfer usually includes a 1-year extension. The cheapest independently published .rw transfer right now is $24.00 at Truehost Global. Domains must typically be 60+ days old and unlocked, with a transfer code from the current registrar.
