Cheapest renewal over time
No need to shop around here — Porkbun wins on both long-term cost and transfer price. $5.66 to register, renewing at $19.05, with transfers running $19.05. 5 years: $81.86.
Over 3 years it's the same story — $43.76 to own, $19.05 if transferring in — Porkbun still covers both.
The cheapest renewal comes from Porkbun at $19.05 — the priciest runs $42.99. Multiply that 2.3x gap by every year you keep the domain, and it's real money. That's less than half the $43.99 median for New generic extensions, which is unusual.
💡 Bottom line — Dynadot's $5.57 grabs attention, but Porkbun actually costs $81.86 over five years for .kids. Scroll back up to compare the rest.

.kids questions
What is a .kids domain?
.kids is a generic domain extension. It is operated by DotKids Foundation Limited and has been part of the domain name system since 2022.
How much does a .kids domain cost?
The cheapest first year is $5.57 at Dynadot, and renewal is $19.48. Over five years that comes to $83.49, staying with that same registrar the whole time.
Why does .kids cost more to renew?
Registrars discount the first year to win the sale, then charge the standard rate afterwards. On .kids the renewal is 3.5× the opening price, so the advertised figure is a poor guide to what you will actually pay.
Which registrars sell .kids?
14 of the registrars we track currently offer it, which is thin coverage compared with common extensions. The table above lists all of them with current registration, renewal and transfer prices.
