Pricing without renewal shock

A .net domain is planned at €19.08 per year at Sigma Hosting, including 20% VAT. The renewal price is identical: no teaser offer in the first year and no surprise on the second invoice. A transfer from another provider also costs €19.08 and extends the term by one year.

Domain registration is in preparation; until the registrar is connected, the prices are planned prices. You can take your domain to another provider at any time with the auth code.

Our tip

A short .net domain is handy for e-mail addresses if your main domain is long.
