About .GREEN Domain Names

The .green domain name highlights the rapidly growing push for more environmentally sound practices across the board in an attempt to create a sustainable future for the planet. The .green domain will allow individuals, businesses and even corporations to unite under the banner of a common goal: maintaining a global green economy.

Pre-Registration Information

The .green launch is divided into two pre-registration phases: Priority Pre-Registration (Landrush) and General Availability. Each phase has specific application requirements:

Pre-Registration

Pre-registration gives you the best possible chance of securing a domain name before it's available to the general public, but it doesn't guarantee you will get it. You can pre-register for the Landrush and General Availability phases, and we'll submit your registration application when the phase begins.

Multiple applications with different registrars are resolved on a first-come, first-served basis during General Availability. If you aren't able to secure the domain name, we'll refund the registration fee.

Bulk .green registration is supported during General Availability.

Priority Pre-Registration - Landrush

From February 12, 2015 at 13:00 UTC to March 14, 2015 at 13:00 UTC, customers can purchase .green domain names at a premium price. A registration fee is collected when the registration request is submitted.

Multiple applications with different registrars are handled through an auction process. The awarded registrar will hold an auction and award the domain to the highest bidder. If you aren't able to secure the domain name, we'll refund the registration fee.

Note: You cannot cancel your pre-registration application. If you are awarded the domain name, you have 5 days to cancel your domain name and get a refund of the registration fee only.
