Is the cheapest first year also the cheapest over time?
Yes. NicNames has the lowest first year ($2.00) and the lowest 3-year total ($68.00).
Is the cheapest transfer also the cheapest place to keep it?
Easyspace is cheapest to move in ($29.72), then $61.34 a year, which makes $152.40 over 3 years. Cloudflare is the cheapest to keep: $90.60 for 3 years.
Bottom line
Over 3 years, NicNames is the cheapest way to own .cards, at $68.00.
"Cards" means something different to almost everyone. Greeting cards, business cards, trading cards, payment cards. So the name before the dot does most of the work. There are no eligibility restrictions. Identity Digital (formerly Donuts) runs it.
A greeting card shop or a print business can use it easily. So can trading card sellers and game shops. If you deal with payment cards, a finance extension like .creditcard would be clearer.
