[QUOTE="Helmuts, post: 2378387, member: 322934193"] Few notes about Automattic (WordPress.com) domain name pricing. The full pricing can be found here: [URL]https://wordpress.com/support/domains/domain-pricing-and-available-tlds/[/URL] On the funny side, appearantly, you need to know somebody from their team (in this, case I met couple people from Automattic registrar operations at the recent NDD Camp) to be able to find this pricing table > to understand the WP domain pricing :) .. the pricing is well hidden :) .. I am sure they will sort this out. --- Currencies: it seems unreasonable to chose EUR pricing > switch to USD > the prices seem to be the same, while the Euros are a bit more expensive than US dollars (today, 1 EUR = 1.08 USD) This, of course, applies to all the big time domainers that have thousands of domain names.. It is almost irrelevant when you have 1 or 2 domain names, only :) here is a list of the available currencies: [ATTACH type="full" alt="Screenshot 2024-03-25 at 06.39.32.png"]8993[/ATTACH] Don't see the currercy switcher? You can switch them in URLs: USD: [URL]https://wordpress.com/support/domains/domain-pricing-and-available-tlds/?currency=USD[/URL] EUR: [URL]https://wordpress.com/support/domains/domain-pricing-and-available-tlds/?currency=EUR[/URL] JPY: [URL]https://wordpress.com/support/domains/domain-pricing-and-available-tlds/?currency=JPY[/URL] .. and, so on :) Few screenshots with different currency pricing: British pound (today, 10 pounds = 10.60 US dollars): [ATTACH type="full" alt="Screenshot 2024-03-25 at 06.38.15.png"]8994[/ATTACH] USD: [ATTACH type="full" alt="Screenshot 2024-03-25 at 06.39.04.png"]8995[/ATTACH] Euros: [ATTACH type="full" alt="Screenshot 2024-03-25 at 07.10.00.png"]8996[/ATTACH] -- I could be wrong here: it does seem to be the case that you need to have a paid wp plan to be able to buy a domain name with them > I was unable to get any further with a quick test.. the 'Continue' button keeps loading.. Do we have member here with WP's paid plan? .. -- The last bit will be very important to all the domainers: The grace period of expired domains seems to be about ten days to two weeks, only. The usual grace period you would expect is 30 days > so, be very careful here. More: [URL]https://wordpress.com/support/domains/domain-expiration/[/URL] ---- Have to say that people I did meet at NDD Camp from Automattic's registrar operations are super friendly and professional. If I do remember it correctly, they have 1.3 of 1.4 million domain names under their management. hopefully this helps, H [/QUOTE]
