Plan the Registration Beyond Year One

A longer registration can reduce the number of renewal transactions while you build. The table uses priced catalogue terms rather than multiplying an introductory offer. Any saving is measured against today’s annual-registration-and-renewal path, not a guaranteed future rate.

Current catalogue prices. Savings compare the total with one year of registration plus annual renewals at today’s rates. Future renewal rates may change. Only available priced terms are listed.
.dance: registration TSh 28,184 (researched ≈ $10.51); renewal TSh 90,896 (researched ≈ $20.80) per year.
