.coffee Domain Registrationfrom £62.26/yr
Why Choose a .coffee Domain?
The .coffee extension launched in 2014 as part of ICANN's new gTLD programme and is operated by Identity Digital (formerly Donuts). It's an unrestricted, descriptive TLD designed for everyone in the coffee trade — from single-origin roasters and neighbourhood cafes to home brewers writing tasting notes. Because the word appears in the domain itself, .coffee names tend to read as a complete sentence, which makes them practical for shops, blogs and product lines that want their category baked into the URL.
Ideal for:
- Independent roasters and micro-roasteries
- Cafes, espresso bars and coffee shops
- Coffee bean subscription boxes and online retailers
- Baristas, latte artists and coffee educators
- Coffee equipment makers and accessory brands
Things to know:
- Unrestricted — anyone, anywhere can register, with no proof of trade or industry membership required.
- Operated by Identity Digital, one of the largest new-gTLD registries, which also runs hundreds of related extensions including .cafe and .menu.
- Some shorter or generic terms are flagged as premium by the registry and carry higher registration and renewal fees.
- Standard registration terms are 1 to 10 years.

Frequently asked questions about .coffee
Anyone. The .coffee TLD is unrestricted, so individuals, businesses and organisations anywhere in the world can register one. You don't need to own a cafe, sell beans or work in the industry — hobbyists, bloggers and home baristas are all welcome to register a name on a first-come, first-served basis.
You can register a .coffee domain for any term between 1 and 10 years. Many owners pick a longer initial term to lock in the name and reduce admin, while others start with a single year and renew annually. You can renew at any point before expiry to extend the registration.
Yes. If your .coffee domain is at least 60 days old and not within 60 days of a previous transfer, you can move it across. You'll need to unlock the domain at your current registrar and obtain the EPP authorisation code, then start the transfer with us. The transfer adds a year to your registration.
Identity Digital, the registry behind .coffee, designates certain short, generic or high-demand names as premium. These carry a higher registration fee and, in most cases, a matching higher renewal fee for the life of the domain. Our search tool shows the registry-set price for each name before you commit.
After expiry there's a renewal grace period of around 30 days where you can renew at the standard price. After that the domain enters a redemption period of roughly 30 days, where recovery is possible but carries a registry redemption fee. If you still don't renew, the name is released and becomes available for anyone to register.
