Discount Program, 100–499 active domains: $11.00.
Start with the renewal column. The advertised $8.75 registration price belongs to the 100+ active-domain tier; it is not the renewal price or the price for every account.

For a single .com, compare the renewal rate and the payment conditions before choosing a coupon. NameSilo's entry Discount Program tier and its retail price lead to different comparisons with Porkbun.

How does renewal compare with Porkbun and Cloudflare?
| Registrar / condition | .com renewal | What changes the decision? |
|---|---|---|
| NameSilo retail | $17.29 | Calculated difference: $6.21 more than Porkbun's published rate. |
| NameSilo Discount Program, 0–99 domains | $11.05 | Calculated difference: $0.03 less than Porkbun; requires enrollment and pre-funded payment. |

Porkbun read October 5, 2026, 9:28:57 p.m. PDT (04:28:57 UTC on October 6). Cloudflare documentation read October 5, 2026, 9:29:07–08 p.m. PDT (04:29:07–08 UTC on October 6).
Cloudflare states: Buy and renew your domain at cost with Cloudflare Registrar.
We read its public domain page and Registrar documentation, but did not reach an account-specific .com renewal quote. The dollar difference remains unknown; check your dashboard before moving.
If you would join NameSilo's program solely for one domain, weigh pre-funding against the three-cent published difference. Keep taxes and payment costs beside these figures; only Porkbun's cited table explicitly establishes fee inclusion. This comparison does not promise next year's rate.
Who can get the $8.75 registration promotion?
The official .COM Registration card displays 21%, a crossed-out $11.00 and $8.75. Those are the site's own labels, not a percentage calculated here.
Discount Program Promo for Tiers 2-6 - register new .COM domains as low as $8.00 by joining our Discount Program
The registration table binds $8.75 to 100+ active account domains. The $8.00 minimum belongs to the 5000+ tier. The card's stated expiration is October 31, 2026; no exact cutoff time or timezone is displayed.
Rendered promotion cards read October 5, 2026, 9:23:40 p.m. PDT (04:23:40 UTC on October 6). The official .com product page describes a first-year standard-registration offer without a coupon; the pricing tier still determines which amount you can use.
Program membership is free; funding is a separate condition
The Discount Program requires activation and checkout with Account Funds. Each fund addition must be at least $50 during participation and for 30 days after cancellation; there is no minimum balance to keep. This is prepaid account credit, not a $50 membership fee. Active-domain counts exclude expired or suspended domains.
The official restriction is explicit: Coupon codes cannot be used while enrolled in the Discount Program.
A separately advertised coupon cannot be assumed to stack with these rates.
Program terms read October 5, 2026, 9:24:22–23 p.m. PDT (04:24:22–23 UTC on October 6). Enrollment and payment were not performed.
Moving an existing .com: a separate $10.80 offer
The official Transfer tab and .COM Transfer promotion card show $10.80, with $11.95 on the card. The card lists the same October 31 expiration. This is an inbound transfer, not a new-registration coupon.
Transfer completion normally adds one year to the existing expiration date. The official transfer FAQ lists exceptions for a domain renewed at its previous registrar within 45 days of transfer, and for exceeding the registry's maximum registration term, typically ten years. Read the linked recent-renewal details if that timing applies.
Transfer pricing read October 5, 2026, 9:22:15 p.m. PDT (04:22:15 UTC on October 6); FAQ read October 5, 2026, 9:29:07–08 p.m. PDT (04:29:07–08 UTC on October 6). Transfer completion, downtime and your domain's eligibility were not tested.
Are privacy, parking and email forwarding only free in year one?
| Service | Duration described | After transfer / configuration |
|---|---|---|
| WHOIS privacy | we provide WHOIS Privacy for free at all times, no exceptions!The same page excludes .us, .in and .tickets; .com is not listed among those exclusions. | Advertised for domain holders, including a .com held after transfer. Confirm privacy is enabled in your account; this was not account-tested. |
| Domain parking | There are no fees associated with NameSilo domain parking.No first-year expiration is stated. | Can be configured for a domain held after transfer. Optional: parking displays a parked page, so choose it only when you want that instead of a working website. |
| Email forwarding | Free with every domain; no first-year cutoff stated. Up to 100 forwarding addresses per domain. | Available to configure after transfer, with required MX records. It forwards to an existing inbox; it is not a hosted mailbox. Prior registrar forwarding settings are not established by a domain transfer. |
Privacy read October 5, 2026, 9:24:23–26 p.m. PDT; email 9:24:26–28 p.m.; parking 9:24:29–30 p.m. Exact UTC timestamps are in the evidence record. No first-year limitation found is a statement about these captured pages, not a guarantee that policies can never change.
Is there a verified NameSilo renewal coupon code?
No direct renewal coupon was verified in this round. The official direct-coupon support page says: Sorry, we do not currently have any active coupons.
It distinguishes direct coupons from affiliate-created coupons. That statement does not erase the separate registration and transfer promotions above or prove that every external code fails.
Coupon support read October 5, 2026, 9:24:30–32 p.m. PDT. No affiliate code was redeemed. “NameSilo coupon,” “promo code,” “promotion code,” “discount code” and renewal-code questions are covered on this same page.
What does the credit discussion establish?
Individual user report · not official pricing evidenceAn April 29, 2026 r/Domains discussion describes credit associated with posting about NameSilo. Comments dispute whether a positive review was required. We did not independently verify the original marketing material or an actual credit payment. This thread cannot establish that all reviews are paid or that a specific rating is false.
For this price decision, use the dated official renewal table and program conditions. A separate Experiences with NameSilo? discussion from February 22, 2025 contains mixed personal experiences; it is a single discussion, not a verified service score or current policy.
One page, with the evidence kept when the promotion changes
We conservatively archive this promotion record at the start of October 31 in UTC, before treating it as an ongoing offer beyond the displayed expiration date. That is our editorial cutoff, not an official NameSilo expiry time. The same URL keeps the quoted prices and original read times; a replacement offer needs a fresh official reading.
