How Domain Compare calculates .au prices
When it comes to finding the right domain registrar, understanding the true cost of ownership is key. At Domain Compare, we're dedicated to providing you with transparent pricing information so you can make a properly informed decision.
The prirces in our comparison table are earch retailer's regular, ongoing renewal price for one .au domain for one year, excluding the goods and services tax (GST), in Australian Dollars (AUD). If retailers charge different proces for different TLDs (for example if a .com.au domain and a .id.au domain would be priced differently), then we take the .com.au price.
We take this approach so you get a realistic view of the ongoing cost of maintaining your domain. While some registrars may offer a reduced registration price at first, they often charge significantly higher renewal fees. By focusing on the renewal price, we help you avoid any surprises down the road. This is also why we ignore temporary discounts and specials.
If an international retailer doesn't list a price in AUD, we convert their price to AUD at the current exchange rate (at the time of the comparison table update). If there's a choice of currency, we default to USD for the conversion. This allows for easy comparison across different registrars, ensuring you're getting the best deal.
If you're a provider and notice any discrepancies in the pricing information on our site, please reach out to us at compare@domaincompare.au. We're committed to maintaining the accuracy and integrity of our comparison platform.
