New NZ domain price announcements for July 2025

In July 2025 wholesale prices for NZ domain prices will increase. As retailers and registrars announce NZ price rises, we’ll post them.

As we have already reported, across-the-board price rises are coming to .nz domains soon. On July 1, the wholesale cost of .nz domains is going up by $4. A lot of retailers are bound to lift prices as a result, and some of them have already announced their plans. Others may already have made their move. The next update to our domain price comparison table will happen in early July, after this round of price rises has been locked in. In the meantime we’ll collect any announcements here so you know what to expect. If there’s any news that we’ve missed, please let us know so we can update this page. Just email [email protected] and we’ll be glad to share the details.

Shopping around for NZ domains? Keep a close eye on prices #

We’re doing our best to let you know about coming price rises, but not every provider has announced their plans yet. When you choose a domain retailer you would ideally know what they’ll charge you for renewals in the future. If you can’t find an answer, it can be a good idea to ask before you sign up. Otherwise, check back here at Domain Compare and we’ll keep you updated.
