The .MARKET extension has entered the General Availability phase, therefore now it is possible to order/apply for domain names within the: .MARKET extension/suffix. Please contact our support via e-mail or use the contact form in order to buy .MARKET domains.
The .MARKET domain is a great extension for all kinds of commercial websites. Any e-commerce business will greatly benefit from this name-place as it directly relates to marketplace and can be used alongside the company name. It will enhance the online presence of any commerce-related websites including marketing-, stock .MARKET- or shopping-related sites.
.MARKET is a new generic Top-Level Domain (E-commerce & Consumer Niche gTLD) announced by ICANN, the Internet domain authority. The New gTLD Program`s goal is to enhance competition, innovation, and consumer choice. You can see it as your opportunity to get that perfect domain which has been taken by someone else. The introduction of .MARKET domain extension is divided into three phases: Pre-registration, Sunrise and Landrush. After Landrush period, the .MARKET domain will become public and registrations will be available to everyone (General availability).
If you are not a brand owner, before General availability you are allowed to take part only in the first phase and pre-register your desired domain names within .MARKET. The use of our gTLD pre-registration module is free of charge and without any obligation to buy later on. We will keep you updated on future developments related to your preregistered domains, including information about pricing and regulations, once these have been announced by the registry responsible for a given gTLD. Please note that pre-registration of .MARKET is not a queue. Although we will try our best, we cannot provide any kind of guarantee that pre-registration will eventually lead to successful registration of your chosen domain within the .MARKET extension.
If you wish to secure your rights to a specific domain name, please choose our Managed TMCH Submission service which offers trademark owners a simple yet efficient way to monitor and protect their brands. It is also the only way by which trademark owners can participate in designated Sunrise periods.
For non-trademark holders Pre-registration of .MARKET will be available until General availability.
Under one generic extension, the .MARKET will be easier to browse. The domain can be used in various ways with its dual meaning: general commerce and a place to shop. With names such as FARMERS.MARKET, TOWNSLOCAL.MARKET, FLEA.MARKET or LEGAL.MARKET, businesses and organisations should be able to distinguish themselves online with a unique and meaningful name-place.

As a an alternative to .COM, the .MARKET extension has the potential to be THE commercial domain that both buyers and sellers will trust, as the domain clearly indicates the website' content.
