DOMAIN EXTENSION GUIDE

.way Domain Names

Application disclosed; not delegated

The.way string sits in the proposed new gTLD space and is associated with a publicly announced applicant disclosure. It is not shown in the current IANA Root Zone Database, so it should be treated as not yet delegated rather than a live extension. Publicly announced information identifies Link Freedom Group as the applicant associated with.way.
