Plonki vs Cloudflare Registrar

Cloudflare Registrar doesn't sell .com.au, .net.au, .org.au or .au domains. Plonki does, and takes the auDA eligibility details (ABN or ACN) in the same API call. Cloudflare's Registrar API is also still in beta: since April 2026 it can search, check and register, but renewals, transfers and contact updates aren't in it yet, and only some extensions can be registered through it. Plonki registers, renews and manages DNS through one API and a hosted MCP server.

Why teams choose Plonki

Australian businesses need .com.au, and Cloudflare can't register it. With Plonki your app or AI assistant registers .com.au and .au names, renews them and sets up DNS, and you can still keep DNS on Cloudflare if you like.

Questions

Can Cloudflare register .com.au domains?

Cloudflare's TLD list doesn't include .au, .com.au, .net.au or .org.au as of November 2026.

Can I register a .com.au with Plonki and keep DNS on Cloudflare?

Yes. Register the domain with Plonki, then set its nameservers to the ones Cloudflare gives you, from the dashboard, the API or the set_nameservers MCP tool.
