Cloudflare Registrar
Cloudflare Registrar launched in 2019 as an at-cost domain registration service for existing Cloudflare customers. Cloudflare does not mark up registry fees, which makes it one of the most price-transparent registrars for supported TLDs.

Claim Cloudflare RegistrarOVERVIEW
The trade-off is ecosystem lock-in: domains must use Cloudflare as authoritative DNS. For sites already on Cloudflare for CDN, WAF, or Workers, this is natural. For users who want registrar and DNS split across vendors, it is less flexible.
Cloudflare Registrar is ICANN-accredited (CloudFlare, Inc.) and pairs naturally with Cloudflare's security stack. It is not a general-purpose hosting registrar like Namecheap or GoDaddy.
WHAT IT DOES
- At-cost domain registration (no markup on registry fees)
- Integrated with Cloudflare DNS and CDN
- Free WHOIS redaction
- Requires using Cloudflare as authoritative DNS
BEST FOR
- Sites already on Cloudflare CDN or Workers
- Engineers who want at-cost pricing without renewal games
- Security-conscious teams consolidating DNS and edge
PRICING
At-cost wholesale registry pricing only
Cloudflare Registrar also appears as a web hosting provider in the HostList directory. Hosting and domain registration are separate products with separate profiles.

Official records come from IANA and ICANN source data. Owner-declared facts are published by the verified profile owner and are not independently audited. Disclosure is free and does not affect directory placement.
0 of 17 owner facts disclosed
Cloudflare Registrar does not have a published DRI yet. Scores only publish once a profile clears the evidence floor, so no registrar gets a number HostList cannot stand behind. Still needed:
- Verify ownership of this profile
- Disclose at least 4 facts (0/4 so far)
- Link a review presence (25+ Trustpilot or 10+ G2 reviews)
Four equal-weight components, 25 points each. Built from verified ownership, third-party reviews, disclosure coverage, and data recency. No paid influence.

Does Cloudflare Registrar mark up domain prices?
No. Cloudflare Registrar charges at-cost wholesale registry fees without markup. You pay what the registry charges plus any ICANN fees, not a retail margin on top.
Can I use Cloudflare Registrar without Cloudflare DNS?
No. Cloudflare Registrar requires the domain to use Cloudflare as its authoritative DNS provider. This is the main constraint versus independent registrars.
HostList ranks registrars and hosts by HRI and profile completeness, not by advertising spend. HostList does not run affiliate links; outbound links go to the provider’s own site. Labeled sponsor banners, when offered, never change HRI, directory order, or spotlight selection. ICANN accreditation data is sourced from official IANA and ICANN directories.
