Why Choose a .cash Domain?
The .cash extension launched in 2014 as part of ICANN's new gTLD programme and is operated by Identity Digital (formerly Donuts). It's a literal, plain-spoken extension that immediately signals money, payments, or finance — useful when you want a domain that tells visitors exactly what you do without needing further explanation. Unlike regulated finance TLDs, .cash has no licensing requirements, so independent operators and small businesses can grab one without paperwork.
Ideal for:
- Cash-for-gold, pawnshops, and second-hand buyers
- Personal finance bloggers and money-saving sites
- Payday lenders, cheque cashers, and remittance services
- Crowdfunding pages and tip-jar landing sites
- Cashback, rewards, and rebate platforms
Things to know:
- Unrestricted — anyone, anywhere can register a .cash domain.
- Operated by Identity Digital, one of the largest new gTLD registries.
- Some short, generic, or finance-related terms are classed as premium and carry higher registration and renewal fees set by the registry.

Frequently asked questions about .cash
Anyone. The .cash TLD is unrestricted and has no eligibility checks, so individuals, sole traders, and businesses worldwide can register one. You don't need to hold a financial services licence or operate in the money sector — the extension is open for any legitimate use, including blogs, brands, and personal sites.
You can register a .cash domain for any term between one and ten years at a time. Many customers choose multi-year registrations to lock in continuity and avoid the risk of forgetting to renew. You can also extend an existing registration at any point during its life, up to the ten-year maximum.
Yes. Transfers in are straightforward — you'll need to unlock the domain at your current registrar, request the EPP authorisation code, and start the transfer with us. ICANN rules prevent transfers within 60 days of initial registration or a previous transfer. The transfer also adds one year to the registration term.
Yes. The registry classifies certain short, common, or high-value finance-related terms as premium, and these carry elevated registration and renewal fees set directly by Identity Digital. Premium pricing is shown in the search results before you check out, so there are no surprises at the basket stage.
After expiry the domain enters a roughly 30-day renewal grace period during which you can renew at the standard price. After that it moves into a redemption period of about 30 days, where recovery is possible but carries a registry redemption fee. If still unrecovered, the domain is released back to the public pool.
