What is the .cheap domain extension?
.cheap is a real top-level domain, an open gTLD managed by Binky Moon, LLC (Identity Digital) and delegated on 14 January 2014. Sand Cover, LLC was the first delegee, and the extension joined Binky Moon in 2018 along with 195 other strings. It is DNSSEC-signed like the rest of that portfolio. This page is about owning a name that ends in .cheap, not about finding the lowest-priced domain.

Looking for the cheapest domain in India instead?
If the goal is the lowest price rather than the word “cheap” in your address, a .co.in or .org.in at ₹809 or a .in at ₹1,000 a year costs far less than a .cheap name. The full domain price list ranks every extension WebJi® sells by first-year and renewal cost, and bulk domain registration covers orders of 20 names or more.
Who actually registers a .cheap name?
.cheap works for sellers whose whole pitch is low price: clearance outlets, wholesale-market traders, refurbished-phone shops and deal bloggers. The registry itself targets online retailers, overstock and discount sites and frugal-living writers. In India the word carries a risk, because many shoppers hear “cheap” as poor quality, so it suits volume and bargain brands rather than premium ones.
- Factory-outlet or surplus seller: exportsurplus.cheap for overruns and seconds.
- Wholesale trader: bulksarees.cheap for bundle pricing to small retailers.
- Refurbished electronics: refurbphones.cheap with warranty terms on the home page.
- Coupon or deal blog: budgetbuys.cheap for daily offer round-ups.
- Campaign microsite: a sale-week redirect that points to your main store.
How much does a .cheap domain cost?
WebJi® lists .cheap at ₹2,722 for the first year and ₹3,289 a year after that, before 18% GST. Three years total ₹9,300 (₹2,722 + ₹3,289 + ₹3,289). The renewal is about 21% above the opening price, so treat ₹3,289 as the long-run yearly cost.

Any restrictions on .cheap registration?
None beyond accurate contact details: .cheap is open to individuals and businesses in any country, with no documents and no trade test. Consumer-law obligations stay with the seller. Under India’s Consumer Protection Act, 2019, a price claim on a .cheap site must be true, so the address cannot substitute for honest pricing on the page.
.cheap vs .deals and .shop: which ending sells better?
.deals reads as a limited-time promotion, .cheap as permanently low prices, and .shop as a neutral store with no price promise. Since .cheap and .deals cost the same at WebJi®, pick the one whose message matches how long your prices stay low. A brand that may move upmarket later should keep its main store on a neutral ending and use .cheap only for a clearance section.
After registration, the name needs a store and a checkout: e-commerce hosting covers WooCommerce and similar carts. Renewal and transfer basics are in the domain renewal guide, and every extension is listed under domain registration India.
Frequently asked questions
Is .cheap a genuine top-level domain or a gimmick?
It is a genuine ICANN gTLD listed in the IANA root zone since 14 January 2014, run by Binky Moon, LLC. Names resolve worldwide and work with any host, email service or SSL certificate, exactly like a .com.
Will shoppers in India trust a .cheap website?
Bargain hunters respond well to it; buyers of gifts, jewellery or premium goods often do not. Test it on a clearance or wholesale section first, and keep payment pages on HTTPS with clear return terms.
What is the three-year cost of a .cheap name?
₹9,300 before 18% GST at WebJi®: ₹2,722 for the first year and ₹3,289 for each of the following two. Premium labels cost more and renew at the premium rate.
Is .cheap cheaper than .com?
No. Despite the name, .cheap costs ₹2,722 against ₹1,380 for a .com and ₹1,000 for a .in at WebJi®. You pay for the word in the address, not for a discount on the registration.
Can .cheap be secured with DNSSEC?
Yes. The .cheap zone has a secure delegation from the root, so signing your own name is possible as soon as your DNS provider supports it and the DS record is published.
