While the vast majority of .eco domains are offered at the standard price, there are a small number of domains (1,000-2,000) that have higher value have a higher, premium price. These domains are principally either short (1- or 2-character names) or generic terms that are particularly well-recognized within the .eco community.
All premium domains renew at the standard price. .eco follows the high-low pricing model, where registrants are encouraged to hold and use their premium domains.
.eco has five standard premium pricing tiers. For information about the specific wholesale pricing tiers, please contact us at registrars@bigroom.eco.
Working with premium domains
In order to register, renew or check the price of a premium domains via EPP, it's important to use one of the supported EPP fee extensions:
We recommend using EPP Fee-1.0.
The fee extension that you wish to use needs to be included as a <svcExtension> in the EPP login command. If multiple versions of the EPP fee extension are included, the most recent supplied version will be used for the session.
Premium domain list
The current list of premium domains can be accessed via the registry portal. After logging in, if you navigate to Admin > Reports > PremiumDomainList you can download a CSV containing the current list of .eco premiums and their associated prices.
Testing premium domains
Many of the .eco premium domains have been loaded into the OT&E environment. You are welcome to test interacting with premium domains in OT&E. However, please do not register a large number of premiums so that they are available for other registrar partners to test.
