Domain management is a hidden risk.
Traditional registrars charge 2-5x wholesale prices and increase fees at renewal
Domain portfolios spread across multiple registrars create governance blind spots
Missing DNSSEC, registry lock or WHOIS privacy exposes domains to hijacking and social engineering
Expired domains lead to brand damage, phishing attacks using your domain, and SEO loss
At-cost domains with enterprise security.
Registrar migration
Bulk transfer from GoDaddy, Namecheap, Google Domains or any registrar. We handle auth codes, DNS pre-configuration and zero-downtime cutover for each domain.

Our domain migration process.
Bulk-transfer domains from any registrar to Cloudflare with zero downtime — we handle the entire process.
Portfolio Audit
Inventory all domains across all registrars. Check expiration dates, lock status, DNS configuration. Identify domains eligible for transfer (>60 days old, not recently transferred).

Import DNS records for each domain into Cloudflare. Verify resolution before transfer. Enable DNSSEC, configure SSL/TLS mode. No traffic disruption.
Bulk Transfer
Unlock domains, obtain auth codes, initiate transfer in Cloudflare dashboard. Approve transfer confirmations. ICANN-mandated 5–7 day waiting period per domain.
Post-Transfer Setup
Enable Registry Lock on critical domains. Configure auto-renewal policies, WHOIS privacy, contact validation. Set up expiration alerts and monitoring.
Frequently asked questions.
How much cheaper is Cloudflare Registrar?
Cloudflare charges at cost — the wholesale price from the registry (ICANN) plus a small processing fee. A .com domain costs about $10.11/year vs $15-20+ at most registrars. No markup on renewals, no hidden fees, no upsells.
Can you migrate domains without downtime?
Yes. We pre-configure DNS records on Cloudflare before initiating the transfer. When the domain moves, DNS resolution continues uninterrupted. The entire process takes 5-7 days per domain (ICANN-mandated transfer period), but there is zero downtime.
Does Registrar support all TLDs?
Cloudflare Registrar supports 200+ TLDs including .com, .net, .org, .io, .dev, .app, country TLDs and many new gTLDs. Some restricted TLDs (.gov, .edu) require manual verification. We check availability for your specific portfolio before migration.
