First up: our latest NIS2 update is now live on the blog. It covers what’s changing for several European ccTLDs - plus, a key update from NIXI, the registry behind .in.
Next, we’re officially accredited for .gr! New, lower pricing went live on July 1, 2025.
Our TLD of the month is .nl - did you know it’s one of the most secure domains out there? Over on the blog, we’re also looking at domain trends for 2025 and making the case for why .eu deserves a spot in every portfolio.
And finally, a quick heads-up: we have announced a few price changes, including for .mx, .cz, .hk, .ie, and .berlin. You’ll find the details at the end of this newsletter.
Happy reading! |

Whether you already manage hundreds of .nl domains or you’re just getting started, there’s a reason this TLD belongs in every portfolio.
.nl isn’t just the most popular domain in the Netherlands. It’s also one of the most secure and trusted in the world.
In a recent study, only 1.3% of .nl websites were flagged as suspect. That makes .nl one of the safest major extensions globally. It’s outperformed only by .au and .cn.
Most .nl domains are actively used by real businesses, not just parked. That’s thanks to SIDN, its registry, which works closely with registrars and resellers to fight abuse and keep the .nl zone clean.
At Openprovider, you can register, renew, or transfer .nl domains for just €4.25 per year. No hidden fees. No fine print.
Just a great domain at a great price.

On June 24th, 2025, we shared a new blog post and newsfeed update in the control panel covering the latest NIS2 developments. The article breaks down key updates from various registries - including upcoming changes for .se, .nu, .de, .eu, .nl, .be, and .dk - and highlights important policy updates for .in as well.

Openprovider is now accredited for .gr Big news: Openprovider is now an accredited .gr registrar! This means significantly lower prices and improved service for you and your customers.
Members can now get this popular TLD at the cost price of €12.50 for every new two-year registration.

Domain trends in 2025: where we stand and what’s gaining ground The domain industry keeps evolving, and the first half of 2025 has offered some clear signals on where things are headed. While .com remains a giant in volume, we’re seeing steady growth in new gTLDs, strategic use of cityTLDs, and rising interest in premium, brandable domains.

Why .eu belongs in every domain portfolio A growing number of European businesses are moving away from US tech platforms and looking for digital identities that reflect their local trust and values.
This makes .eu more relevant than ever. Known for its high security and strong renewal rates, .eu is a high-value domain that signals credibility across the region.
If you offer domains to your customers, now’s the time to put .eu front and center in your portfolio.

Can you apply a transfer lock on .eu? No, this is not supported for this TLD.
Can a .gr domain be restored once it has expired? Yes, this is possible. However, this is a paid, manual operation that must be performed within 15 days of the expiration date.
How do you solve “object status prohibited action” when trying to update the IPS tag for a .co.uk domain? To solve this, you should unlock the domain in the RCP, then change the IPS tag. |

The registries behind .mx and .berlin are increasing their prices soon, which means that prices at Openprovider are changing, too.
We want to be clear: Openprovider Members always pay the same registry prices we do for the 1,900+ TLDs we are accredited for. No markups. No hidden fees.
Besides these two price increases, we also have price decreases for .cz and .hk this month, and the .ie registry will soon start charging a restore fee.
For more information on the new pricing, check the newsfeed in the control panel. |
