Only the address bar. The storefront, the catalogue, the published lab results and the checkout are the same operation at a new domain name. A vendor moving from a country-code domain like .is to a .com is a routine, and frankly overdue, housekeeping move — country-code domains are harder to keep, easier to lose, and get treated with more suspicion by payment processors and search engines alike.
Yes, for now. We tested the old address on 27 July 2026 and it forwards cleanly to the new one, carrying the rest of the link with it — which means saved product links and any affiliate or referral tags on them still arrive intact.
Here's what most people get wrong about a forward like this, though: they assume it is permanent. It isn't. A redirect is a courtesy the vendor pays to keep, and it is usually switched off a year or two after a move. If you have Growth Guys saved anywhere — a bookmark, a note, a group chat — this is the week to update it to the .com address and stop relying on the forward.
This is the part worth your attention, and it has nothing to do with Growth Guys specifically. Any time a known store changes its web address, that switch becomes the single best opening for lookalike sites. The pattern is well documented across e-commerce generally: someone registers a near-identical spelling, copies the real storefront's design wholesale, buys a little search traffic, and collects payment details from people who were already expecting the address to look slightly different than they remembered.
The move itself is not the risk. The risk is that a genuine change trains you to accept an unfamiliar address without checking — and that habit is what a clone counts on.
| Check | What you're looking for |
|---|---|
| Exact spelling | growthguys.com — read it character by character. Clones rely on doubled letters, swapped vowels, and added hyphens or words |
| Arrive via the old address | Type the old .is address and let it forward you. Where it lands is the real destination — a clone cannot intercept that |
| Lab results page | The real store publishes batch results. Open one and confirm it resolves on the testing lab's own portal, not just as an image |
| Checkout domain | The address must not change to an unrelated domain when you reach payment |
| Padlock plus spelling | A padlock only means the connection is encrypted. A clone can have one too. The padlock is meaningless without the spelling check |
As of late July 2026, the store is displaying a notice that credit and debit checkout is temporarily affected, with a stated expectation of being sorted out by August. That is a plain operational notice, not a red flag in itself — card processing outages are common for vendors in this category.
It is worth naming the trap it creates, though. A temporary card outage is exactly the moment buyers get nudged toward an irreversible payment method they would not normally choose. If a card is your preferred way to pay because it may give you a dispute path, waiting for card checkout to come back is a perfectly reasonable decision. Never let a temporary outage rush you into a payment you cannot walk back.
Yes. HEALTHYLIFE10 takes 10% off at Growth Guys and applies at checkout on growthguys.com exactly as it did before the move (verified July 2026). Codes live in the store's checkout system, not in the domain name, so a change of address does not disturb them. If a code ever fails, the usual causes are an expired promotion or a product excluded from discounts — not the web address.
