> For a distributed team, the deciding factor isn't price - it's whether the registrar supports *real* per-person accounts (roles, SSO, audit trail) so the company's domains aren't hostage to one teammate's personal login. Here's what I'd actually use, in order:

> **1. Cloudflare Registrar** - my default. It sells at wholesale cost (~$10.46/yr .com, registration = renewal, no upsells), and on the team side it has proper account members with policy-based roles scoped per domain/zone, an API for infra-as-code, and [SSO that went free for all plans in late 2025](https://developers.cloudflare.com/changelog/2025-09-25-sso-for-all/) rather than being Enterprise-gated. That combination - SSO + [role scoping](https://developers.cloudflare.com/fundamentals/manage-members/scope/) + no markup - is rare. Caveats: you must use Cloudflare's DNS (fine for most, a blocker if you're committed to Route 53/NS1), it won't register every TLD, and registry lock only comes via [Custom Domain Protection on Enterprise](https://developers.cloudflare.com/registrar/custom-domain-protection/).

> **2. Porkbun** - the pick if you *don't* want DNS tied to Cloudflare. Transparent renewals (~$11/yr .com), free WHOIS pr
