DOMAIN EXTENSION GUIDE

.ride Domain Names

Not yet delegated

The.ride string points naturally to transport, mobility and journey themes. Publicly announced information identifies Link Freedom Group as the applicant associated with.ride, and the string appears in ICANN’s publicly announced 2026 round materials as part of the planned new gTLD process. That makes.ride a proposed extension rather than a live public registry at this stage.
