Our Verdict
Crazy Domains offers low intro pricing but earns its revenue through aggressive upselling and above-market renewal rates. The checkout process is designed to add extras you didn't ask for, and cancellation is deliberately difficult. Their .com.au domain renewal pricing (reportedly up to $88/year when market rate is $15-25) has drawn particular criticism. While they have Sydney servers and AUD billing, the overall customer experience — as documented in numerous online reviews — is frustrating. There are better options for Australian businesses that value transparency and fair pricing.
