  Do I have to pay the $96 now if I’m creating the site and taking the one year free plan?

  Hi @sseatery! You can get a domain registration, or transfer, free with the purchase of a new annual plan for our managed hosting services. And that cost just depends on which plan you choose.

  Here’s the normal domain pricing:

  Domain Pricing and Available TLDs

  So after the first year, you’d pay for the domain renewal in addition to the managed hosting.

  And here’s the plan pricing, though if you’ll keep an eye on your email, there are coupon codes from time to time:

  Does that help? If not, send more details and we’ll go from there.

  Hey, thank you for replying. What I’m really asking is an I going to be billed now or at the beykf the first year I’m supposed to pay? I chose to get the 1 year free plan then to pay $96 every year. I just need to know if I have to pay that fee NOW??

  The plans include the first year of your domain registration or transfer for free, the plans themselves are not free for the first year, so you’ll be charged as soon as you acquire the paid plan.
