## How .nl is priced

2 of the 4 registrars whose .nl pricing we have verified price it flat — first year the same as every renewal — while the other 2 discount year one (median renewal 1.2× the promotional price). Verified renewals run $7.60 to $8.98 a year.

A flat seller and a discounted one can look identical in year one and differ sharply by year three, so compare the renewal or the multi-year total.

Computed from the 4 verified .nl prices this site holds, not from every registrar selling .nl.
