Hi. I am considering to transfer couple domains to Cloudflare Registrar, however I cannot find pricing information. is there a place I can find pricing info for different TLDs without actually adding and transferring my domain to Cloudflare? Is there a reason behind this secrecy?
They canât publish a list due to contracts with registries etc. If your domain is in your Cloudflare account, you can go to the transfer screen and it will tell you the price.
Which TLD(s) do you need a price for?
These are the ones I am planning to move: .co, .host, .io, .cards, .one, .top, .pro, .work.
Can I add domain in Cloudflare and see pricing without changing NS records?
Hereâs a list put together, Iâve refrained from posting it on the forum for now but I guess the time has come
Itâs not automatically updated or anything, but it should be exactly what Cloudflare pays to the Registry any time you renew/transfer/register a domain with CF.
Hi @domjh, has Cloudflare announced this somewhere? Or itâs just your âbest guessâ about this? Would that be even OK under US antitrust law? I donât think so.
âshould be exactly what you pay to Cloudflareâ
I understand Cloudflare claims they only charge the wholesale price but I still doubt it somewhat considering the .net fee and IIRC that issue was never properly addressed by Cloudflare.
Nope, not just a guess @cbrandt.
We cannot list the wholesale cost for most TLDs in our marketing materials due to commitments in our contracts with the registries. We can, however, give you the wholesale cost at checkout when you transfer your domain.
I rarely post info without backup. If I do, I always say âmy best guessâ or something similar.
ÂŻ\_(ă)_/ÂŻ
I like to believe innocent until proven guilty.
Agreed
Though, if âaccusedâ the defendant should make his case and the defendant has been relatively silent on this issue thus far - again IIRC
Sorry, @domjh, just to be clear: I didnât mean to question the seriousness of your post.
Iâm just amazed that this is even legal, that one can set in a contract a rule forbidding another party from revealing such a basic info as price. Perhaps itâs because itâs supposed to be âwholesale priceâ, or B2B, and therefore not protected by antitrust laws (which are aimed at protecting the consumer).
There is nothing at all that requires a company to list prices publicly, prices only need to be disclosed as part of the contract/commitment process as you cannot form a binding contract without agreeing on terms.
