Why Choose a .shopping Domain?
The .shopping TLD launched in 2016 as part of ICANN's new gTLD programme and is operated by Identity Digital (formerly Donuts). It does exactly what it says on the tin — it tells visitors instantly that your site is about buying, browsing, or comparing products. Unlike .shop, which leans toward standalone storefronts, .shopping reads naturally for guides, comparison sites, deal aggregators, and curated buying experiences. It's open to anyone with no eligibility restrictions.
Ideal for:
- Price comparison and deals websites
- Curated gift guides and product review blogs
- Personal shoppers and styling services
- Affiliate marketing sites and cashback platforms
- Group buying clubs and members-only marketplaces
Things to know:
- Unrestricted — anyone, anywhere can register a .shopping domain.
- Operated by Identity Digital, one of the largest new gTLD registries.
- Some short, generic, or high-value terms are classed as premium and carry higher registration and renewal fees that recur annually.
- Standard ICANN policies apply, including the 60-day transfer lock after registration.

Frequently asked questions about .shopping
Anyone, anywhere in the world. There are no eligibility restrictions, no business verification requirements, and no need to demonstrate that you sell products. Individuals, sole traders, limited companies, and non-profits are all welcome to register a .shopping domain on a first-come, first-served basis.
You can register a .shopping domain for between 1 and 10 years in single-year increments, and you can renew it indefinitely as long as you keep it in good standing. Registering for multiple years up front locks in your name and means one less renewal date to remember.
Yes, provided your domain is more than 60 days old, is unlocked at your current registrar, and you have the EPP authorisation code. Transferring in extends your registration by an additional year, so you don't lose any time you've already paid for at your previous provider.
Yes. The registry classes certain short, generic, or commercially valuable terms as premium domains, and these carry higher registration fees that also apply at renewal each year. Standard names register at the regular rate. Live pricing for any specific name is shown in the search box on this page.
After expiry your domain enters a roughly 30-day grace period during which you can renew at the standard price. After that it moves into a redemption period of around 30 days where recovery is possible but carries a hefty fee. Once that ends the name is deleted and released back for general registration.
