A $12,500 price tag for Donuts’ Early Access Program — GoDaddy has

GoDaddy issues its pricing for jumping the line for Donuts’ domain names.

Last month I wrote regarding how Donuts was eschewing a traditional “landrush” period for its domain names in favor of a so-called “Early Access Program”.

The Early Access Program (EAP) charges significantly higher prices the earlier you register a domain name.

It was clear at the time that pricing for the program would not be cheap. 101Domain by now listed a price of $10,990 for the earliest registrations.

Now we have GoDaddy’s pricing, and it’s not any cheaper. If you want to jump the line, open up your wallet.

Pricing varies slightly between different Donuts domains, but here’s a general idea:

First day pricing: $12,500
Second day pricing: $3,150
Third day pricing: $1,250
Fourth day pricing: $700
Fifth day pricing: $200

Renewal pricing reverts to Donuts’ standard fees.
