Is Spaceship down? Spaceship status

Spaceship does not publish an official status page we could verify. If you suspect an outage, try its support chat or a third-party monitor.

How much does Spaceship charge?

We don’t publish Spaceship prices yet. Spaceship has no public price feed we can re-check daily, and we never show a price we can’t re-check. Our hidden-fee check above shows what one new .com cost in its cart on the day we walked it.

For prices we re-check daily, see any TLD’s price page, for example .com, .io or .ai, or the Renewal-Trap Index.
