.circle Domain
.circle is a gTLD delegated in 2015 to Amazon Registry Services, which kept it as a closed extension. In April 2026 it was transferred to Jolly Host, LLC, a subsidiary of Identity Digital, opening the door to a possible new registration policy.

About the .CIRCLE domain
What is the .CIRCLE domain?
A recent and highly relevant development: on April 20, 2026, Amazon formally transferred ownership of .circle — along with two other dormant extensions in its portfolio, .got and .jot — to Jolly Host, LLC, a subsidiary of Identity Digital Inc., based in Bellevue, Washington. Identity Digital is known in the industry for managing new gTLD extensions with relatively open registration policies and few restrictions, which could foreshadow a change in .circle's availability in the near future, although at the time of the transfer the extension was still not available for general public registration. Given how recent this change of ownership is, it's especially advisable to confirm directly with an accredited registrar what the current registration policy is.
.circle has historically been a closed extension, with eligibility restricted exclusively to Amazon and its affiliates while under its management. In April 2026, Amazon transferred this extension — along with .got and .jot — to Jolly Host, LLC, a subsidiary of Identity Digital, an operator known for applying registration policies with relatively few restrictions on other extensions in its portfolio. Given the recent transfer, it's worth confirming with an accredited registrar whether the eligibility policy has changed. Contact our team to confirm availability and the exact requirements.
