What is .now?
A present-tense gTLD for brands and identities that live in the moment. Reads as a verb-state: "yourname.now" = "yourname, right now". Ideal for real-time products, news, live streaming, events, and any brand whose value is in immediacy.
★ Mission log · Interesting facts
- .now is a generic TLD operated by Amazon Registry Services — delegated in 2016 and recently opened to the public for general registration.

.now FAQs
The most-asked questions from earthlings, answered.
Who runs the .now TLD?
.now is operated by Amazon Registry Services, Inc. — the same registry behind .you, .bot, .deal and .moi. It's a generic top-level domain available worldwide, sold through accredited registrars including Rocket Domains.
How is .now different from .co.now?
.now is a public Amazon Registry gTLD — anyone can register one through any participating registrar. .co.now is a Rocket Domains-exclusive Living Domain operated by Rocket Domains itself. They're separate products from separate registries that happen to share the "now" theme. Both make great present-tense addresses; the choice depends on whether you want the open-market gTLD or the Rocket-exclusive Living Domain experience.
Can I use .now for email?
Yes. Every Rocket Domains registration includes free email — you can have you@yourname.now.
Are there any registration restrictions?
No. .now is open to individuals and organisations worldwide with no presence, sector, or trademark requirements.
Ready to claim your .now?
From $19.00/yr, with free email, planetary DNS, and privacy included. No surprises, no upsells, no fuel required.
