LB ccTLD Pricing update

Finally last night at circa 2200 ADT we had the latest pricing update from LB, this was the 2nd or 3rd we have had because of going back and fourth with LB on their new strategy.

To that end, we now have what we believe is a balanced pricing update, better than the first revision, but, not as good as it could have been and we will now start looking into becoming registrars for some of the larger ccTLD’s we carry.

Links are attached for the 5 Tiers we have, we have tried to keep the tiers although this has not been very easy/simple to achieve, these being in PDF format. We have also uploaded a CSV file of all tiers so you can bring that into your spreadsheet app and remove the tiers that are no use to you.

The Tier levels to remind you are:

Tier 1 – $0 – $399.99

Tier 2 – $400 – $994.99

Tier 3 – $995 – $2,499.99

Tier 4 – $2,500 – $4,999.99

Tier 5 – $5,000 onwards

Below you will find the downloadable files for the pricing. Please remember, these pricing changes are happening on the 31st July – so please (albeit late I know) reach out to your customers (or your own domains) and get them renewed before the pricing increase.

LogicBoxes ccTLD price revisions

Further to the last couple of posts regarding LogicBoxes revising pricing, we have now the next (and must be final as we do not sell any of their other services) pricing update.

As of 1st August 2022, LogicBoxes (through the PDR credentials) are revising the ccTLD pricing, some of the pricing increases from what we have seen re quite drastic, others not so and 1 has even decreased in pricing (yes, you did read that correctly, we have asked for confirmation and that it is not an error).

Therefore on Sunday 31st July 2022 at 1900 UTC the pricing for ccTLDs will increase, as well as the gTLD , nTLD and PP service as previously mentioned on other blog posts.

The ccTLDs affected will be:

.ru
thirdlevel.ru
.es
.fr
.de
.cn
thirdlevel.cn
.nl
.cl
.id
.nz
thirdlevel.nz
.me
.vc
.tv
.sx
.sc
thirdlevel.sc
.eu
.ca
.co
thirdlevel.co
domus
.in
thirdlevel.in
thirdlevel.au
.cc
.ws
.bz
.mx
thirdlevel.mx
.ec
thirdlevel.ec
.mn

We will shortly release (next day or two) a CSV file with the pricing as it is not a simple increase of X across the add/renew/transfer and restore groups, from what we can tell, LB (read PDR but all the same company) are increasing the “renewal” costs further than the standard markup.

LogicBoxes Business email pricing increase

We have been informed by LogicBoxes that their Business email service pricing is increasing as of 1st July 2022.

Essentially LogicBoxes are migrating the services to a new DC, and in turn should be providing a far better service for their business email offering. Time will tell on this, so our fingers are crossed.

In turn, LB have informed us that the pricing will increase, this being to $1.00 per mailbox per month. This will be effective 00:01 on 1st July 2022. I am extremely sorry for the short notice on this, we have been back and fourth with LB to little avail.

Logicboxes platform Domain service price increases

As you know NEO does not increase its pricing save for registry or service pricing. Logicboxes have informed us that they are increasing their “per transaction” cost on domain services.

This includes ALL TLDs, gTLD, nTLD and ccTLDs, as well as the per transaction fee on the privacy service. I would say in their defence that this price has not increased in a number of years.

Therefore from 00:01 on the 31st July 2022 UTC, the following increases will be applied to the platform, pl:ease make sure you update your pricing so that no service is sold at a loss.

Per domain transaction will increase by $0.20c

Per Privacy protection transaction will increase by $0.25c

Please remember these are PER YEAR, so if there is a 5 year renewal, the increase will be for domain transactions as an example, 5 x 0.20c = $1.00. Likewise for the PP service.

This is for registration, renewal, transfer and restoration – all charge based actions.
