.org Domain Price Comparison: Register, Renew and Transfer

Anyone can, with no conditions. Public Interest Registry, the non-profit that runs .org, calls it open and unrestricted, so a business or an individual can register one just like a charity. The non-profit image comes from who has used it since 1985, not from any rule.

The first year costs from $7.98 at Porkbun, and renewals run from $11.20 a year at Cloudflare to $19.18 at Namecheap. Over 10 years a .org costs $109.30 at the cheapest registrar here.

Registrars discount the first year to win customers and earn it back on renewals. The gap is widest at Namecheap, $8.68 then $19.18. Cloudflare, which sells at cost, also charges less for a new .org ($8.50) than for a renewal ($11.20), so part of the discount comes from the registry.

The wholesale price rose from $9.93 to $11.00 a year on June 1, 2026, and registrars passed it on. It was the first .org increase since 2016, and the registry has said it has no further increases planned.

Cloudflare, at $11.20, followed by Dynadot at $11.64. A transfer includes a year of renewal that is added to the domain, so moving a .org when it is due for renewal costs nothing extra.
