About the .NEW domain

What is the .NEW domain?

The .new is a generic top-level domain (gTLD) delegated to the root zone on August 28, 2014, and managed by Charleston Road Registry Inc., under Google Inc.

This extension operates under a particular policy known as "action domains": navigating to a .new domain must take the user directly into the corresponding content-generation or online-creation flow, with no redirects to a homepage or landing page requiring additional steps. Services requiring login may first show a sign-in screen, but immediately afterward must take the user into the action flow; users already signed in must be taken immediately into that flow. Subscription services requiring an account may also register a .new domain, provided they grant Google Registry free access to verify compliance. Google Registry waives enforcement of these requirements for 100 days after registration if the domain does not yet resolve, and domains registered during the Sunrise Period remain exempt as long as they stay with the original registrant and don't resolve. All .new domains require mandatory HTTPS to function in browsers.
