If anyone here works at NameCheap, can I catch a break somehow if I try to transfer all of my domains over? I've got 20+ and hate spending extra money if they aren't up for renewal anytime soon.
A manager from Namecheap said that there's a deal when you transfer 50+ domains. You might be able to work something out with them for 20+, but the manager didn't respond to a request for a 43 domain transfer, so it seems unlikely.
Someone could ask Namecheap to allow people to "bundle" a transfer to hit their discount levels. Enable customers to get together and transfer all their domains from a single registrar like GoDaddy all on the same day. Customer Foo has 43 domains, customer Bar has 7 domains, they both transfer all of these domains on the same day and both key in a bundle code. They both show up in the same transfer bundle, so both get the 50 domain discount.
The bundle code could be an extension of the discount code, like Foo would enter BYEBYEGD:Email-addy-of-Bar while Bar enters BYEBYEGD:Email-addy-of-Foo. That type of structure would limit the bundling to two customers coordinating with each other (so Namecheap doesn't lose out on handing out too many discounts). Other structurings of bundles are possible, of course, depending upon Namecheap's internal sales and marketing goals.
