DOMAIN EXTENSION GUIDE

.mart Domain Names

Not yet delegated

.mart is a proposed generic top-level domain string that has been publicly associated with more than one claimant in ICANN’s 2026 round disclosures. It is not shown in the IANA root zone database, so it should be treated as pre-delegation rather than live. Publicly announced information identifies the organisations linked to the string as Link Freedom Group and Starlight Registry (Namecheap).
