Domains that renew on time, at the going rate.
.nz, .co.nz, .au and 500+ TLDs through one wholesale registrar, on the same account as your hosting. Every domain comes with a managed DNS zone, free email forwarding, and renewals you hear about a week before they're charged — never a teaser rate that doubles in year two.

More than a name
A domain here isn't a line in a registry. It arrives with a working DNS zone and the things a small business actually needs from one, at no extra charge.
Free managed DNS
Every domain gets a Cloudflare zone, set up automatically, with an editor that checks each record when you save it.
Free email forwarding
info@yourdomain delivered to any inbox you already use — no mailbox to buy. Full mailboxes when you need them.
Redirects and a parked page
Point a spare domain at your main site, or show a clean "coming soon" page until the website is ready. No hosting required.
One account, one card
Domains sit beside your hosting, renew automatically on the saved card, and never lapse because an invoice went to an old address.
.nz with no paperwork
.nz extensions are open to anyone. Want a .com.au as well? We collect the ABN or ACN the Australian registry needs and file it for you.
DNSSEC in one switch
For domains registered here, enabling DNSSEC publishes the DS record at the registry for you. Nothing to copy anywhere.
How renewals work
Registry wholesale prices move occasionally, in both directions. We pass the current rate through and don't play teaser games on top — so here is exactly what happens.
You get the exact amount
An email with the renewal price for the extension at today's rate, a week before anything is charged.
Auto-renew charges the card
The card on file is charged and the registration extends. If the charge fails you hear about it straight away, with time to fix it.
Or renew it yourself
A renew-now button sits on the domain's page throughout the renewal window. Prefer to leave? Unlock, take the transfer code, no exit fee.
Transferring in? A transfer costs one year's renewal and adds a year to your registration. DNS keeps answering during the move.
Search your domainCommon questions
Do renewals cost more than the first year?
Renewals are charged at the current price for the extension at renewal time — registry wholesale prices do change occasionally, in both directions, and we don't play teaser-rate games on top. You'll get the exact amount by email about a week before we charge, and you can renew from the domain's page any time inside the renewal window.
Does the domain come with email?
Email forwarding, yes — any address on your domain delivered to an inbox you already have, free, switched on from the zone page. Full mailboxes come from a provider; see the ones we recommend.
Is WHOIS privacy included?
We don't sell a separate WHOIS privacy add-on. .au rules require accurate registrant details, which are only used to run the domain. For .nz, individuals not in significant trade can ask us to hide their phone number and address from the public register.
Can I transfer a domain away later?
Any time, with no exit fees. Unlock it, grab the transfer code from the domain page and take it with you.
What do I need for a .au domain?
An Australian presence — usually an ABN, ACN, or a registered business name or trademark. We validate the format before you pay and file the details directly with the registry.
What do I need for a .nz domain?
Nothing special — .nz extensions are open to anyone, with no local-presence or eligibility requirements. Search, register, done.
Do I need hosting to register a domain?
No — a domain can be registered on its own, and the parked page, redirects and email forwarding all work without a hosting plan. It just works even more smoothly alongside phas hosting, since we point the DNS at your site automatically.
Can I use my own nameservers?
Every domain comes with a free managed Cloudflare zone, but you're not locked to it — point the domain at your own nameservers whenever you like.
