Vegas is one of the most iconic, recognized brands in the world. That recognition extends to people of all walks of life and is synonymous with innovation, excitement, vibrancy and prosperity. From its dazzling lights, to its endless nights of fun it captures the imagination of the world like no other city. Owning a .vegas domain name is like owning a piece of Vegas itself.
The .vegas launch is divided into three pre-registration phases: Trademark Holder (Sunrise), Priority Pre-Registration (Landrush) and General Availability. Each phase has specific application requirements:
Pre-registration gives you the best possible chance of securing a domain name before it's available to the general public, but it doesn't guarantee you will get it. You can pre-register for Sunrise, Landrush and General Availability phases, and we'll submit your registration application when the phase begins.
Multiple applications with different registrars are resolved on a first-come, first-served basis during General Availability. If you aren't able to secure the domain name, we'll refund the registration fee. Application fees will not be refunded.
From July 2, 2014 at 15:00 UTC to August 1, 2014 at 15:00 UTC, trademark holders can submit an application to register a .vegas domain containing their owned mark, before it's available to the public.
Trademark validation goes through the Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH), which is an ICANN global repository for trademark data. Visit the TMCH website for information on registering a trademark.
Bulk .vegas registration is not supported during Sunrise.
If you aren't able to secure the domain name, we'll refund the registration fee. Application fees will not be refunded.
Note: You cannot cancel your pre-registration application. If you are awarded the domain name, you have 5 days to cancel your domain name and get a refund of the registration fee only.
From August 14, 2014 at 15:00 UTC to September 10, 2014 at 15:00 UTC, customers can purchase .vegas domain names at a premium price. A non-refundable application fee in addition to the domain's registration fee is collected when the registration request is submitted.
Bulk .vegas registration is not supported during Landrush.
Multiple applications with different registrars are resolved on a first-come, first-served basis during General Availability, and then the awarded registrar will hold an auction and award the domain to the highest bidder. If you aren't able to secure the domain name, we'll refund the registration fee. Application fees will not be refunded.
Note: Landrush application fees are refundable if the application is canceled prior to the close of the phase, however it is non-refundable after the close.
