Gandi is a Paris-founded, ICANN-accredited registrar with hundreds of TLD extensions, free WHOIS privacy wherever the registry permits, and a historically operator-friendly posture toward upsells. They list .adult and comparable extensions in their catalog, free anycast DNS is bundled, and DNSSEC is one-click. The registrar was acquired by Total Webhosting Solutions in 2023 and now operates under the Your.Online group.

The post-acquisition direction has introduced some pricing creep and support-ticket delays that longtime users have flagged; worth evaluating on renewal rates before bulk transfers.
