New gTLD Services – Helping You Apply for Your Own Domain Extension
We help brands, entrepreneurs, and governments apply for their own domain extensions—like .brand, .city, or .category—in the upcoming 2026 ICANN new gTLD round. If you’re thinking of securing your own slice of the internet, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.
What We Offer
We’ve worked on over 100 new gTLD applications in the last round and know the process inside out. Whether you're new to this or have done it before, our services are tailored to match your goals, experience, and expectations.
Here’s how we help:
Feasibility & Strategy
We start by helping you understand what a new gTLD means for your business. We cover what it takes to apply, operate, and grow your own TLD—and how it could impact your brand, marketing, or digital strategy.
Choosing the Right Partners
From backend registry providers to registrars and legal advisors, we help you pick the right team to support your TLD.
Drafting Your Application
Once ICANN releases its final guidebook, we prepare a first draft of your application and update it as new details are published.
Submitting to ICANN
We handle the formal submission process and make sure everything is compliant, accurate, and submitted on time.
Guidance Through the Evaluation Phase
We support you through ICANN’s evaluation and any follow-up questions that may arise, including technical or legal clarifications.
Legal Help if Challenges Arise
If someone objects to your application, we can represent you in front of dispute resolution providers. We’ve handled all types of ICANN objections in the past—and won.
Drafting Policies
We write policies for how your TLD will operate, keeping in mind ICANN’s rules and industry standards.
Contracts and Agreements
We help draft contracts with your partners—backend providers, registrars, and even end-users—so everything runs smoothly post-delegation.
Application Process
This is the outline of the full ICANN new gTLD application process for 2026. From initial strategy and RSP pre-evaluation to application submission, objections, contracting, and delegation—each step is mapped out clearly. Whether you're applying for a dotBrand, generic, or geographic TLD, this infographic helps you understand what’s required.
