SPOTLIGHT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Identity Digital<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Identity Digital has announced they will be releasing a number of their premium domains 12-Jun-2024.  The bulk of this release is made up of valuable short (1, 2 & 3 character) domain names and generic terms across various Identity Digital TLDs. Most notably, the registry are releasing short character premium domains on .INFO, for the first time. On release, these premiums domains will be subject to claims for 90 days, in accordance with ICANN Rights Protection Mechanisms (RPMs) requirements, as these domains were not made previously available during Sunrise. Registrars will need to pass the claims notice to Registrants and the Claims ID to the Registry. EAP pricing schedule will apply. Please reach out to your Client Service Partner if you have interest in reviewing the list domains against your brands and securing any of the domains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
