We Interrupt This Broadcast…
Don’t change the station! The launch of .RADIO is scheduled for August 23, 2017, with 3 phases running simultaneously to start. The Sunrise, Limited Registration, and Landrush phases will all run from August 23 through October 31, 2017. The registry will assign each application a priority based on the category of the applicant. First priority will be given to trademark holders with a valid SMD file. There are 6 additional priority categories for those with a nexus to radio activities. The final priority category will be for those who already qualify under an earlier priority category and wish to apply for additional domains in relation to their radio activities. Multiple applications within each priority category will result an auction. Each category will be completely allocated (i.e. accepted, rejected or sent to auction) before any name on the next category is allocated. General Availability will begin November 15, 2017. Please contact your client service partner for more information and to determine the appropriate priority category.
