.cash Domains for Money, Payments and Rewards
.cash entered the root zone on 17 April 2014, and the IANA record names Binky Moon, LLC, part of Identity Digital, as the sponsoring organisation. The word means ready money, and it gathers trades that differ widely from one another: remittance, currency exchange, bookkeeping, buy-back services, refunds and loyalty schemes. The nTLDstats page accessed on 11 August 2026 lists 27,238 registrations in the zone.
What matters most here is the legal frame. Offering payment services, trading currency or arranging transfers is licensed and supervised in many countries, and that duty follows from the work rather than from the address you chose. However convincing the name looks, licence details still have to be shown to the visitor separately. The sibling ending .capital faces the investment side, and you can try candidates through a domain name search.
Payment, currency exchange and money transfer activities are licensed in many countries. Registering this extension replaces no licence, permission or registration; the approvals your activity needs are still obtained separately.

.cash Domain Lifecycle
What happens day by day after it expires
Day 0 is the domain's expiry dateIn short: your .cash domain is put on Client Hold on its expiry date, so the site and e-mail stop that same day. You can still renew during the first 20 days, but from this point a late renewal fee is added on top of the renewal price. On day 20 the registration is deleted and until day 50 only a paid restore brings it back. Nothing at all can be done in the 5 days that follow, and on day 55 the name is open to anyone. There is exactly one way never to enter this chain: keep auto-renewal on.
Domain Is Available (Available)
A .cash address at this stage has not been taken yet, and it goes to whoever registers first. Check the name you have in mind — if it is free, it can be yours within minutes.
Domain Is Active (Active Period)
Once registration is complete, the domain is registered to you for the term you selected. You can renew at any point before it expires to keep it active, or switch on auto-renewal so you never have to watch the date.
Renewal Window (Client Hold)
On its expiry date your .cash domain is put on Client Hold: the site and e-mail go down that day, but the registration is still yours. A single renewal within these first 20 days brings everything back exactly as it was — nothing is lost. The only difference is that a $6.73 late renewal fee is now added to the renewal price; renewing before the expiry date avoids that fee entirely.
Redemption Period (Redemption / RGP)
On day 20 the registration is deleted and the 30-day redemption period that ICANN requires of every gTLD registry begins. The name is not released to anyone during this time; only you can take it back, by paying the restore fee, until day 50. That fee is far higher than a renewal — renewing on time is always the cheaper route.
Pending Delete (Pending Delete)
Once the redemption window closes too, the domain enters its final 5 days and there is no way back. Neither renewal nor restore works here; nobody — your registrar included — can return the name to you. The registry uses this window as the last hold before the name goes back into the pool.
Open to Anyone Again (Released)
On day 55 the name .cash returns to the pool and anyone can register it. Sought-after names are often gone within seconds, and there is no guaranteed way to get one back. Yet staying out of this timeline is entirely in your hands: leave auto-renewal on and the expiry date will never catch you off guard.
The timeline above is the schedule Atak Domain applies and publishes. The ICANN chart you will find elsewhere shows a renewal window of up to 45 days after expiry; ICANN's policy on expired registrations (section 2.2.1) lets registrars delete an expired domain at any time, provided they disclose their policy in advance. We apply that window as 20 days and publish it here in plain sight. Full text of the policy: ICANN Expired Registration Recovery Policy

Frequently Asked Questions About .cash Domains
The questions people actually ask before registering — answered plainly.
-
No verified eligibility condition applies at registration. The registry asks for no licence, and where a name is free the order completes without an approval step. Offering payment services, exchanging currency or arranging transfers is nonetheless licensed and supervised in many countries. The duty comes from the activity, so holding the name replaces no licence and grants no exemption from oversight.
-
The word gathers every field where money changes hands. Remittance and bureau de change services, bookkeeping and accounts support, device buy-back sites, refund schemes and loyalty programmes lead the list. That breadth looks like an advantage, yet with a vague root the address never states which of those you actually do. Pair the word with a root that describes the work.
-
A separate address helps when the campaign is time-limited. Where a different team runs the campaign page, its own name keeps the publishing schedule and the measurement independent of the main site, and you redirect it once the campaign closes. For a permanent programme, a section under the main domain needs less upkeep and keeps search visibility under one roof.
-
Registering lookalike names first is the most effective step. An address built on money invites copies with a swapped letter, and holding the spellings people confuse makes the attacker's job harder. The second step is sending company email only from your own domain, so anything else is easy to spot. Check who holds a given record with a whois search.
-
They describe money in two different states. The word for ready money sits close to daily transactions, payment and collection, while .capital suggests funds, investment and stakes. A bureau de change or a bookkeeping service belongs on the first; a venture fund reads better on the second. Neither carries a verified restriction, so the choice rests entirely on the work you want to describe.
-
An encrypted connection is the first and non-negotiable requirement. No form carrying card details, an account number or identity data belongs on a page without a certificate. Session security comes next, along with the choice to redirect to the payment provider's own page, since data you never store is easier than data you store and defend. Set it up from the SSL certificate page.
