.com Domain Resellers Under $8
Are there any domain resellers offering .com for under $8? It's challenging to turn a profit through domain reselling. Porkbun offers competitive pricing, but unfortunately, they do not have a reseller program. Cosmotown appears promising with their $6.99 .com domain offering, yet there have been reports of inactive customer support and negative experiences.

I've had good experience with Cosmotown customer support.
I don't know, but I submitted a query about a month ago and haven't received any response from them yet.
Cloudflare registrar charges wholesale cost for all domain name registrations and renewals.
According to .com registry Verisign, the wholesale price is now $9.59

Any pricing you see offered by any registrar is now a loss-leader for them or a limited-time promo, like cosmotown, namecheap, spaceship, namesilo, and few others.
You can check the live promo offered by various sellers: https://tldes.com/com
but the renewal prices are above $10, only Spaceship and Cosmotown are having $9.48 pricing on renewal - so that is the lowest non-promo price for registration and renewal you could ever get on entire planet.
try openprovider.com
Yeah, you know what the problem is? There's no direct way to use these limited-time promos with WHMCS. I reached out to NameSilo and other providers for clarification. They explicitly stated that these promos are only available if the buyer purchases directly from them, not through a reseller. Additionally, most of these providers lack promo API support, except for Namecheap! It's quite a hassle to resell domains with just a $1 profit margin while requiring a $100 pre-deposit.
@Uchiha domains are generally a loss product. You compensate for that through SLL certs, add ons, hosting, etc
Yeah, that's why I'm considering dropping domain support for my business. Also, I really doubt how many people actually buy SSL certificates nowadays. Let's Encrypt and Cloudflare are what most people use these days.
Here, yes.
Mhm, since you're still reselling, if you want to make a profit from domains, you have to provide something. Otherwise, why not go directly to a registrar. Like with Incognet I can see the anonymous registration and crypto payments useful, similar to Njalla.
Renewal price for members is 9,28 euro...
Maybe you need tld-list.com

As a reseller, it's not possible to compete on price. You need to have your own value-add services - the days of lazy resellers that don't put in any actual work are long gone. For example, bundle web design + hosting + domain into a package, or sell fully-managed hosting with a domain bundled, or provide local support, etc.
Since customers are going through you, your support needs to be at least as good as the registrar's.
In short, Cloudlflare, Spaceship and Cosmotown all sell at wholesale for both new and renewals.
