Extension .xxx is approaching its first anniversary on December 6th and it is time to renew your .xxx domain names. Many people like me used backordering and pre-registrations last year. Some may choose to transfer the domains in order to consolidate them from various registrars to their favorite one. But I think the list below is worth a look so you can see market prices for .xxx renewals and transfers. You might choose to change registrars after all.
Please keep in mind that the registry price for .xxx domain names is not even close to .com or any other major gTLD. It is a staggering $62 and retail prices are of course more than that. So choose wisely what domains you renew and what you drop.
The cheapest price came from what was a surprise to me: GoDaddy at $68.17 (using a coupon). Then there is DomainMonster that has a $69.99 price for .xxx transfers. Name.com (for transfers) and 101domain.com have their pricing set at $75 for .xxx domains.
There are a couple of European Registrars like dinahosting and gandi.net offering .xxx domains for €52 ($67.57) and €55 ($71.47) respectively but depending on where you live you may have to pay VAT tax and also you may have to make substantial purchases to get this rate.
Do you want cheap .xxx prices? Please find below the complete list of prices for .xxx domain names renewals or transfers from most of the .xxx accredited registrars.

A few registrars may offer bulk pricing that is not depicted on these prices. If a registrar is missing or a price is wrong or missing please let me know.
Great list, and thanks for the GD coupon.
DomainMonster.com $69.99 transfer
Where can I get cheaper domain transfer for .com less than $8.39? Currently the renewal rate of .com at GoDaddy is $8.39
@Acro
Thanks and you are welcome.
@raymond
$8.39 is pretty cheap. Are you using a coupon for that price?
If not you can use the 32% off coupon.
Thanks for the domainmonster price.
No, actually $8.19 , they give me this price because I qualified for multiple money-saving offers! they have automatically applied the best offer, giving me the lowest price with 45% discount.
Looks like I better to stick to GoDaddy…….
I saw CrazyDomains.com.au offers $5 now (was $3 yesterday), quite cheap, but have to pay additional $12/yr if I want to forward/redirect the domain to other website. It hasn’t got the benefit of GoDaddy’s premium listing and auction services.
I don’t think you are going to get better than $8.19 but not everything is always about price.
You need to consider support, security and hidden fees.
It’s true.
any signs of cheaper reg prices anywhere for .xxx
never regged any
havea couple of good ftr but not paying these rates still
also is it a standard reg now? no forms to fill etc?
thanks
is there a 2013 update on this? that would be a great help as Im looking into buying a few thes .xxx. Godaddy is a 200$ right now without coupons though.
Please let me know thanks.
