.attbusiness
Is .attbusiness a real TLD? Who’s applying to run it?
.attbusiness is not contested. One application for it is on ICANN’s Reveal Day list, as of 7 October 2026. It is AT&T Services, Inc..
A private brand extension for one company's business unit; no outside buyer can register here, so it has no market value.
the applicant's own business-services unit and its internal teams, as a controlled namespace for corporate pages and customer portals; no third-party registrants
The 2012 applications making the most similar bet. Chosen by AI from every string in that round, without being told what happened to any of them.
Same bet: a large corporate parent bolts a line-of-business qualifier onto its own brand to carve out a divisional namespace, so the string's value is entirely internal — it only works if the parent pushes its own division's identity onto it, since no third party can ever use it.
Also a brand plus a segment word used to split one house's identity into a specific arm, with the same requirement that the parent migrate a business unit's customers onto a longer compound string.
Parent brand plus business-unit qualifier applied for by the group itself — the same closed, single-registrant bet on a subdivision of a conglomerate, though 'motors' names an industry where 'business' names a customer segment.
What a .attbusiness domain is
.attbusiness is not a TLD yet. It is a string on our record of the ICANN 2026 new gTLD round, filed under Brand. One application for it is on ICANN’s Reveal Day list.
Is the .attbusiness domain extension real yet?
.attbusiness is not yet a domain extension you can register: nothing resolves under it, and no registrar sells names in it. It is a string applicants have put forward in the ICANN 2026 new gTLD round, the process that decides whether it becomes one.
When can you buy a .attbusiness domain?
You can’t yet. ICANN publishes every applied-for string on Reveal Day, 7 October 2026 at 18:00 UTC. A .attbusiness name can only be registered after that, once the string is delegated and its registry opens. Last round's closest parallel to .attbusiness was .kerrylogistics, delegated on 5 March 2016.
Is .attbusiness a real TLD?
Not yet. .attbusiness is not in the DNS root, so nothing resolves under it. It’s here because .attbusiness is on ICANN’s Reveal Day list of applied-for strings. Every entry on this page links to its source.

- Band chosen: 1-9 (no realistic market). The verified facts show a single confirmed application from AT&T Services, Inc. for a string that compounds a corporate brand with a business-unit descriptor; this is the profile of a closed brand TLD where the operator is the only registrant. It is not in the 10-29 band because that band presumes some outside demand, even shallow or event-driven; here no third party can buy an address, so there is no vanity registration flow and no aftermarket at all. It is not below the band because it is not a dead string: the applicant has a plausible internal use (a controlled namespace for a business-services division, with the trust signal of a known brand), which gives it a small amount of end-use utility to its one best-fit buyer. By analogy (flagged as analogy) with brand TLDs from the earlier gTLD round, a minority of brand registries developed meaningful primary-identity use for customer-facing sites, while many sat with a handful of names or were later retired; a sub-brand string like this one is, by analogy, more likely to serve as a defensive or lightly used namespace than as the company's primary identity, since the shorter parent-brand string is the natural home for that. Main market uncertainty: whether the applicant actually migrates customer-facing business-unit properties onto this TLD and markets those addresses, which would raise end-use utility within the 1-9 band but could not create an aftermarket.
