Cheapest renewal over time
How much does a .rest domain cost over 3 or 5 years?
Porkbun has the lowest cost for .rest over both 3 years ($54.06) and 5 years ($106.58).
Does the cheapest start stay the cheapest?
No. NameMart has the lowest first year ($1.49), but over 3 years it totals $61.47, $7.41 more than Porkbun's $54.06.
What if you already own the domain?
NicNames has the lowest transfer fee ($25.00) and is also the cheapest to keep: $75.00 for 3 years.
Bottom line
Porkbun, at $54.06 for 3 years, beats NameMart, the registrar with the lowest first year, by $7.41.
.rest is short, and most people read it as “restaurant”. It's a natural fit for restaurants, bars and food businesses, though the word “rest” also lets it work for other ideas. The name before the dot should make the meaning clear.
Punto 2012 runs it, along with .bar. It has been in the root zone since 6 March 2014. It's open to everyone. The registry's current policy, published in August 2026, says any person or company can register.
A restaurant can use it for menus, bookings and opening hours. If you want the full word, .restaurant says it plainly; .rest is shorter but less obvious.
