# Synergy Wholesale

> Australian wholesale registrar, near-cost .au if you can open an account.

- auDA-accredited Australian registrar selling at wholesale rates to anyone who opens an account and holds a prepaid balance.
- For .au, the cheapest credible option on this page, with Australian technical support.
- Not a consumer product: no polished retail funnel.
- The account-opening step will deter anyone buying a single domain.

**Verdict.** The answer for .com.au or direct .au from code with an ABN; the missing test environment is the real cost.
