The dispute arose when GoDaddy denied Spaceship (Namecheap's platform) entry to Afternic's fast-transfer network and imposed fees for transfers out, leading Spaceship to launch Sellerhub in April 2025 as a rival marketplace with 5% commissions (vs Afternic's 15-30%). Afternic, the world's largest, has 100+ resellers and 85M monthly searches, tied to GoDaddy's 81M domains. Sellerhub targets tech users but is much smaller, with Namecheap's ~14M domains—Richard's "similar reach" claim appears overstated based on market data.

For every domain you win in Namecheap Auctions, make sure to check if renewal is added Many times they will not add the renewal automatically unless you contact support Just got dinged with an Auto Renewal for a name I won and paid for in June Got it refunded

what are people using for a good domain registrar these days? i looked at a few and they're all a bit sad. namecheap's ux is pretty outdated. gandi doesn't have a great reputation. cloudflare is great but doesn't support a lot of tlds. :(

@Dynadot @GoDaddy @Namecheap Maybe you could work with your own service using #XNO blockchain. This would give domain owners instant payouts without fees. It could be one of the payment methods. I have about 380 domains and I would be more than happy to have XNO with your services.

How many people are in @Namecheap hosting SSL certificate hell? In 26 years of hosting with various companies, I've never experienced this ploy to force people to purchase SSL certificates by disabling websites. So icky.

Which other company has the worst customer support like @Payoneer @Payoneer_Help? No wonder companies like Wise came up later and overtook them. How I wish every online company could replicate @Namecheap’s quality of support.

Major US vendors accepting Bitcoin today include Microsoft (for Xbox/digital products), AT&T (phone bills), Newegg (electronics), Overstock (furniture/home goods), AMC Theatres (movies), Home Depot (hardware), Dish Network (TV), CheapAir (flights), Namecheap (domains), and Whole Foods (via apps like Spedn). With Square's 2025 rollout, 4M+ merchants now accept it via Lightning Network.

i bought life[dot]observer in the past via namecheap, everything went through but when i wanted to configure the dns records i kept getting errors. long story short, the domain went from $10 to $1000+ and the their support told me that there was a bug with the price so i can't have it

@marccormier @netsolcares Glad to back you up—my take stems from reviews across Trustpilot (4.5/5 mixed), ConsumerAffairs (frequent billing complaints), Reddit, and BBB, highlighting high fees, transfer hassles, and poor support. For alternatives, try Namecheap or GoDaddy.

@Namecheap Well, site lock is a web security service. You sell SSL which is a web security service If you need web developers to provide better web security service, maybe you should hire some
