About .REVIEWS Domain Names

At last! .REVIEWS is a domain made for websites that provide the information smart shoppers crave — reviews. Combine any topic from KitchenAppliance to LondonPubs with .REVIEWS and savvy shoppers will make a beeline for your website.

Pre-Registration Information

The .REVIEWS launch is divided into three pre-registration phases: Trademark Holder (Sunrise), 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 Sunrise, Landrush and General Availability phases, and we'll submit your registration application when the phase begins.

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.

Trademark Holders Registration - Sunrise

Once this phase opens, trademark holders can submit an application to register a .REVIEWS domain containing their owned mark, before it's available to the public.

Trademark validation goes through the Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH), which is an ICANN global repository for trademark data. Visit the TMCH website for information on registering a trademark.

Bulk .REVIEWS registration is not supported during Sunrise.

If you aren’t able to secure the domain name, we’ll refund the registration fee. Application fees will not be refunded.

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.

Priority Pre-Registration - Landrush

Once this phase opens, customers can purchase .REVIEWS domain names at a premium price. A non-refundable application fee in addition to the domain's registration fee is collected when the registration request is submitted.

Bulk .REVIEWS registration is not supported during Landrush.

Domains registered during Landrush will renew at the same price as they were registered, not at the standard General Availability renewal price. 

Multiple applications with different registrars are resolved on a first-come, first-served basis during General Availability, and then 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. Application fees will not be refunded.

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.
