Short answer

Spaceship has the lowest verified renewal price for .me at $15.53. AWS Route 53, Porkbun price .me flat: the first year costs the same as every renewal, so there is no promotional rate that jumps later.

How .me is priced

2 of the 11 registrars whose .me pricing we have verified price it flat, first year the same as every renewal, while the other 9 discount year one (median renewal 2.5× the promotional price). Verified renewals run $15.53 to $55.98 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 11 verified .me prices this site holds, not from every registrar selling .me. How prices are verified.
