.finance
A .finance domain is a generic top-level domain for the financial sector. Binky Moon, LLC operates the registry for the extension. It is open to financial institutions, and the registrar describes it as a way for them to speak directly with their existing and potential customers.
The registry supports DNSSEC, so you can add a layer of security to your domain’s DNS records. Names can be between 1 and 63 characters long, and internationalised names are allowed. Registrations run for 1 to 10 years, and you can renew for one year at a time.
A .finance domain suits investment banks, financial advisers, accountants, finance reviewers and bloggers who write about managing money. Before you register, check that the name matches what you offer, because the extension signals a financial focus to your visitors.
Registration is open to anyone worldwide.
- Anyone may register a .finance domain, with no local presence required.
- Your contact details must be accurate.
- You must keep your contact details current throughout the registration.
Your domain stays active for a 40-day grace period after it expires, so you can still renew it during that time.
- You can renew during the 40-day grace period after expiry.
- There is no separate redemption period.
- If you do not renew, the name is released after the grace period ends.
You can transfer an existing .finance domain to Domain Central from another provider.
- You need the authorisation (EPP) code from your current provider, and the domain must be unlocked.
- A transfer usually takes 5 to 7 days to complete.
- A domain cannot be transferred within 60 days of registration or of a previous transfer.
- A successful transfer adds one year to your registration term.
You can change the registrant of a .finance domain through your registrar.
- The change does not alter the expiry date of the domain.
