Cheapest renewal over time
Stays flat
Dynadot's price doesn't move at renewal — $9.76 both years one and beyond. 5 years: $48.80. There's no first-year discount hiding a jump here, so pick this one on registrar quality rather than price alone.
The cheapest renewal comes from Dynadot at $9.76 — the priciest runs $61.49. A 6.3x difference like that adds up fast across renewals. That's under half the $88 median across Sponsored extensions — rare for this category.
