Take Full Ownership of Your Online Brand

In April 2026, trademark owners can secure a rare .brand TLD—full control of your digital identity with added trust and security. Authentic Web offers a strategic, turnkey path from business case to ICANN application to launch.

Why a Brand TLD Matters

A Brand TLD isn’t just tech—it’s a strategic asset: a fully owned, brand-exclusive digital space. Here’s what that means for your business:

Unmatched Security at the Root A Brand TLD boosts security by eliminating spoofing, enforcing DNS protocols, and giving you full control over your digital namespace.

Authenticity You Can See and Trust A Brand TLD signals trust, simplifies URLs, and ensures every digital touchpoint is clear, consistent, and unmistakably yours.

Marketing That’s More Effective, Memorable, and Measurable A Brand TLD lets you run campaigns with custom domains, boost SEO, cut costs, and market as your brand—not just on the web, but as it.

Future-Proof Network and Infrastructure Design A Brand TLD gives IT full control to build secure, scalable systems on your DNS—enabling trust, automation, and brand-first infrastructure.

Strategic Investment.
Tangible Returns.

Yes, owning a brand TLD can be a significant investment—but it’s also a strategic asset with measurable ROI.

Over 550 of the world’s leading global brands acquired their own Brand TLD in ICANN’s original offering. Typical business case assessments include:

Costs:

ICANN application fee
Brand registry setup
Annual operations

Benefits:

Brand and IP value increase
Enterprise-wide operations efficiencies
Security and brand enforcement cost reduction

Cost Reduction & Avoidance

Cut costs by eliminating defensive domains, avoiding pricey generics, and reducing brand infringement management efforts.

Revenue & Value Creation

Boost campaign conversions, differentiate messaging, and increase efficiency with automated domain lifecycle management.

When compared to the cost of brand protection, legal enforcement, and digital campaign inefficiencies, a brand TLD is not just cost-effective—it’s transformative.
