Overview

What is .deals

deals is an English word for bargains, and in shopping it means offers and reduced prices. It suits shops built on weekly offers, sites that gather a city’s shop discounts, and the offer pages stores open for holidays and seasons and close afterward.

.deals entered the internet’s root in 2014, is run by Binky Moon, LLC, and supports DNSSEC signing and names in Arabic letters. With us its price starts with a small first-year offer and renewal costs a little more, so the cost is almost fixed from one year to the next, with no surprise at renewal.

What to know: the word that draws someone looking for an offer may make others wary, and some mail filters are stricter with whatever looks like pushy advertising. So keep .deals for the offers page alone, and keep your shop’s permanent name in .com or .store.

  • $41 for the first year with an offer, then $48 for each renewal. Look at the renewal price before you register: it’s what you’ll pay every year after the first.

  • Anyone, person or organization, from any country, with no documents or conditions; the contact details in the owner’s name just need to be accurate.

  • Yes, once 60 days have passed since it was registered or last transferred. Ask your current provider for the transfer (EPP) code and open a transfer request with us; a full year is added to the domain’s term.

  • We remind you by email 31 days and 8 days before expiry, and 3 days after it. After expiry the website and email stop, and you can renew in the first eight days at the regular renewal price; from day 10 it may go to auction. If it is deleted and the registry allows redemption within 30 days, the redemption fee is $200 plus a year’s renewal.
