## Portfolio facts

| Attribute | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Extensions | 32 extension guides, and more extensions in the [price list](https://isthmusdomains.com/pricing/) |
| .com / .net / .org renewal | $11.99 / $12.99 / $11.99 |
| Transfer in | Priced at the renewal price ($11.99 for a .com) |
| Transfer out | Code free, requested from the client area; no exit fee |
| Renewal | automatic renewal from your balance, switched on or off for each domain |
| Balance | Unused balance stays on your account and never expires, and it pays for new domains, renewals and transfers. When a purchase costs less than the minimum top-up, the part added only to reach the minimum is refundable on request to support within 30 days of the payment, in USDT or USDC, as long as it has not been spent. The rest of the balance is not paid back, except where the law requires it |
| Failed order | if a domain cannot be registered (taken in the meantime, registry refusal), the full amount goes back to your balance |
| Domain protection | Optional on each domain: +$29 a year |

## How does one crypto balance work for many domains?

You top up once and spend from the balance for every action: new registrations, renewals, transfers in and Domain protection. The minimum top-up is $25, in BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC. Send the exact amount shown, on the right network; the top-up is credited once the network confirms it.

Unused balance never expires. For a portfolio, this means you can top up before a busy renewal month and keep the rest for later. If a domain cannot be registered, if a domain cannot be registered (taken in the meantime, registry refusal), the full amount goes back to your balance.

## How do automatic renewals work across a portfolio?

You choose per domain. We offer automatic renewal from your balance, switched on or off for each domain, so you can keep client domains and your best names on automatic renewal and let weak names expire. Keep the balance above the total of the coming renewals, or a renewal cannot be paid.

Prices stay readable: a .com renews at $11.99/year, a .net at $12.99/year, a .io at $52.99/year. Some extensions cost more at renewal than in the first year, such as .io, .app and .dev, so check the renewal column of the [price list](https://isthmusdomains.com/pricing/) before you buy in volume.

## Can I hand a domain to a client or a buyer?

Yes, with a transfer code. Codes are free, requested from the client area, with no exit fee. The client or buyer starts the transfer at their own registrar with that code.

Two ICANN rules matter for resale. A gTLD cannot be transferred for 60 days after its registration or a previous transfer. And every registrant email must be verified: the registrant email is verified after registration, as ICANN rules require (within 15 days). If the domain has Domain protection, the registrant record shows DomaineGoat LLC; ask us to put it back in the buyer's or your client's name first, at no charge.

## Does Domain protection make sense for a portfolio?

For some domains, not all. Domain protection costs +$29 a year per domain, on top of the domain price. On a large portfolio of low-value names, that cost adds up fast.

It makes sense for names you do not want in the registrant record under your own name: client projects that are still confidential, or valuable names where a transfer lock on by default reduces the risk of theft. With it, every transfer or DNS change must be confirmed from your account. Some extensions are sold only with Domain protection: .de, .uk, .nl, .cc, .to, .ch, .pl, .be, .at, .cz, .nz, .fi. See [Domain protection](https://isthmusdomains.com/domain-protection/).

## What are the risks for a domain investor offshore?

The main risk is a trademark claim, and it works the same offshore. If a name matches someone's trademark, the owner can file a UDRP complaint. The domain is then locked within 2 business days of a request from a UDRP provider, the dispute provider receives the registrant record, and the panel's decision is applied. Read [UDRP disputes](https://isthmusdomains.com/udrp/).

Other complaints, such as a competitor's claim about content, need a decision from a Panamanian court. But registry rules still apply, and registries change prices: the .com wholesale cost rises from $10.46 to $11.17 on 1 November 2026, per Verisign's results release of 23 April 2026. Plan renewals with that in mind.

## How to move a portfolio to Isthmus Domains

1. **List the domains and dates** — Note each domain's expiry date and the date of its last registration or transfer (60-day rule).
2. **Unlock and collect codes** — At your current registrar, remove the transfer lock and collect each transfer (EPP) code.
3. **Top up once** — Top up enough for all the transfers: each costs the renewal price of its extension.
4. **Start the transfers** — Enter each domain and code in the client area, then set renewal and DNS for each one.

## Agencies and investors: FAQ

### Can I pay for 50 domains at once in crypto?

Yes. One top-up can cover all 50; orders hold up to 20 domains each, so 50 names go in three orders paid from the same balance. The minimum top-up is $25, and we accept BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC. For 50 .com domains, the cost is 50 times $11.99/year.

### Do you charge a fee to transfer a domain out?

No. The transfer code is free, requested from the client area, and there is no exit fee. The new registrar charges its own transfer price, which usually adds a year to the registration. Remember the 60-day lock after a registration or a previous transfer.

### Can I register client domains without the client's ID?

Yes. We do not ask for an ID from you or from the client. Each domain needs one verified email, as ICANN requires. You can use the client's email, so they confirm it, or your agency's email and hand the domain over later with a transfer code.

### What happens to a parked domain that gets a trademark complaint?

Trademark disputes follow the UDRP, as ICANN requires of every registrar. The domain is locked within 2 business days of a request from a UDRP provider, the dispute provider receives the registrant record, and the panel decides. If you hold Domain protection, the complaint names DomaineGoat LLC; we inform you, and you can defend the case.

### Is there a discount for large portfolios?

We publish one price list for everyone, with no volume tiers on this site. A .com costs $11.99/year whether you hold one domain or a hundred. We do not claim to be the least expensive registrar: Porkbun and Cloudflare sell a .com for less, as our [price index](https://isthmusdomains.com/data/offshore-registrar-price-index-2026/) shows.

### Which extensions can I manage here?

Generic extensions such as .com, .net and .org, new extensions such as .io, .app, .dev and .xyz, and some country extensions such as .de, .uk and .ch. The [extension list](https://isthmusdomains.com/tld/) has a guide for each of 32 extensions, with its registry rules and price.
