Cheapest renewal over time
How much does a .online domain cost over 3 or 5 years?
Of the 47 registrars compared, Spaceship is cheapest for both 3 years ($31.74) and 5 years ($62.30).
Does the cheapest start stay the cheapest?
Not with Hostinger. Its $0.99 first year is the lowest, but 3 years there comes to $72.97 against $31.74 at Spaceship, which is $41.23 less.
What if you already own the domain?
one.com is cheapest to move in ($2.22), then $68.07 a year, which makes $138.36 over 3 years. Spaceship is the cheapest to keep: $59.22 for 3 years.
Bottom line
Spaceship has the lowest 3-year cost for .online: $31.74, which is $41.23 less than Hostinger, the registrar with the lowest first year.
The .online domain is operated by Radix, a registry company which was established in 2012 by the founders of the Indian technology firm Directi with the aim of taking part in ICANN's new gTLD round. There were six applicants who requested .online. In November 2014 the joint company, which was owned by Radix and two major registrars, Tucows and Namecheap, won the right to it as a result of a private auction, each of the partners contributing between $4 million and $5 million to pay for the bid and to cover start-up costs (PR Newswire).
The partnership was short-lived. In March 2015 Radix bought out Tucows and Namecheap and became the only owner, although the two registrars remained as marketing partners. The proposal put forward by all three parties was straightforward in that .online requires no explanation and could therefore function as a general alternative to .com.
The launch was confirmed by these figures: registration began on 26 August 2015, and by the 24-hour mark Radix had 39,449 names, which represented the best first day ever for a new extension up to that time (Domain Incite). It had become the quickest new extension to reach 100,000 registrations by November 2015 and surpassed 1 million registrations in November 2018. As of 30 June 2026 it was the eighth-largest generic top-level domain. In March 2026 Radix transferred all of its extensions, including .online, to Tucows' registry platform.
The value of .online depended on how the word was already being used. After the three partners had won the auction, they noted that over 550,000 .com names already ended in "online" and that .online had been one of the most pre-registered extensions at the registrars. Premium names have been a major source of income for Radix. In March 2017 it sold casino.online for $201,250 via Sedo, which at the time was the highest amount ever paid for a single name in a new extension. In 2023 the same buyer's business group paid $400,000 for betting.online, a transaction which Radix carried out directly (Radix). Radix states that .online has generated more than $8 million in premium retail revenue through the registrars.
