In March 2021, Sygnal's technical advisory board made the unanimous decision to change domain providers for our clients.
Previously, we were working with two primary domain registrars-
- For New Zealand domains, including .NZ, .CO.NZ, .ORG.NZ, and .KIWI domains, we used Discount Domains.
- For International & specialized domains, including .COM, .ORG, and custom TLD's, we used Name.com.
We've had a great partnership with Discount Domains, which for many years provided fantastic service and a solid administration system. However in the past 2 years Discount Domains has raised prices significantly, and rolled out a new administrative interface that has created serious problems for our admin team and our clients alike.
After a number of escalating client complaints and pricing issues, we determined that it was time to find a more stable and cost-effective solution for our clients' domain registration needs.
What is Sygnal Domains?
Sygnal Domains is a partnership between Dreamscape ( Singapore ) and IT Labs ( New Zealand ) to provide centralized, secure domain-name registration and configuration for all of your domains.

PLATFORM ADVANTAGES
We're very excited about the advantages the new partnership and registrar platform provide.
- Much lower costs for your domain names and renewal fees.
- The ability to cost-effectively register all of your domain names ( NZ & International ) in one central place.
- A much faster DNS capability using Cloudflare.
- A cleaner and easier-to-use interface for managing and registering your domain names.
How will my domain names be migrated?
We're performing most of the domain name migrations over Easter weekend-
- There should be no disruptions to your website service or email
- We'll send you account details for login as soon as your migration is complete
- International names such as .COM and .KIWI may take 7 to 10 days for the transfer to complete
