New, higher .nz domain prices are coming from 1 July, which is not great news. So to cushion the impact, we're offering account credits of up to $5 for every .nz domain transferred to us throughout the months of June to September.
How to earn account credits
From 1 June to 30 September, we’ll give you an account credit of up to $5 for every .nz domain that you transfer to us from any of our competitors.
You can earn credits on as many as 1000 domains, so this might be the perfect time to remind you that you can bulk transfer .nz domains to SiteHost through the Control Panel.
Account credits will be tiered depending on how many domains you transfer:
| Total domains transferred | Credit per domain |
|---|---|
| 1-99 | $5 |
| 100-249 | $4 |
| 250-499 | $3 |
| 500-1000 | $2 |
And yes, you're reading those dates right. The Account Credit Offer opens opened before the price rise takes took effect.
All credits will be paid in October, after we know how many domains you have transferred. We’d rather not lay out an entire rulebook for a straightforward offer, so we’ll act in good faith so long as you do too. Moving the same domain in and out of your SiteHost account, for example, isn’t in the spirit of things. Nor are transfers from our sister companies, including MyHost and Domains Direct. If you want anything clarified, just ask.
