Prices for foreign domain names are directly influenced by currency exchange rates, in addition to the standard price increases set by the registry. In this article, we will explain how these prices are determined and the most advantageous ways to renew your domain name.

1. Currency Exchange Rate

The most significant factor influencing the registration, transfer, and renewal prices of foreign domain names is the US dollar exchange rate. When the dollar strengthens, the price increases proportionally, demonstrating a direct correlation.

2. Registry Price Increases

Registries periodically, typically once every two years (sometimes less often), raise their prices for domain registration and renewal. These increases are usually minor, generally not exceeding 10% of the cost. The registry provides advance notice of such increases by informing all partners that new prices will come into effect from a specified month. As this is a global price adjustment, all market participants will subsequently raise their prices.

3. Promotions and Discounts

You may encounter promotional offers where domain registration prices are lower than their renewal costs. This strategy is employed by some domain zones to attract new users with an initially low price, with the intention of generating more revenue from subsequent renewals.

Since most startups and project developments typically span several years, you will likely be renewing your domain at a different, often higher, price. It's important to be aware of this; pricing details are usually available on the website.

4. In Conclusion

Typically, the US dollar exchange rate tends to strengthen towards the New Year, leading to higher prices.

We periodically offer clients the option to renew their domain in advance by sending invoices 90 days before its expiration date.

You can also top up your personal account balance, and the domain will be renewed automatically. If you wish, a foreign domain name can be renewed for up to 10 years at once.
