Cheapest renewal over time
The trap
Namecheap's $7.18 first year looks like the deal — until renewal jumps to $36.18, more than 5x the sign-up price. 5 years: $151.90. That gap alone is worth checking before you commit.
Cheapest transfer
Easyspace has the cheapest transfer price at $19.58, if you already own this domain elsewhere and want to move it.
Which costs less over 5 years?
Blacknight direct works out to $92.96 over 5 years — skip the discount chase, it's cheaper than registering with Namecheap and transferring later at $148.50.
Which costs less over 3 years?
The gap is smaller at 3 years — $53.28 versus $67.34 — but the answer doesn't change.
Shop around and Blacknight's $19.84 renewal beats the $59.99 charged at the top end. That's a 3.0x gap that compounds every year you keep the domain. That's under half the $43.99 median across New generic extensions — rare for this category.
💡 Bottom line — A low sign-up price rarely tells the whole story. For .pet, Blacknight's real five-year cost is $92.96, well past Namecheap's $7.18 headline.

.pet questions
What is a .pet domain?
.pet is a generic domain extension. It is operated by Identity Digital Limited and has been part of the domain name system since 2015.
How much does a .pet domain cost?
The cheapest first year is $7.18 at Namecheap, and renewal is $36.18. Over five years that comes to $151.90, staying with that same registrar the whole time.
Why does .pet cost more to renew?
Registrars discount the first year to win the sale, then charge the standard rate afterwards. On .pet the renewal is 5.0× the opening price, so the advertised figure is a poor guide to what you will actually pay.
