Your trademark may already be an onchain TLD.
Onchain registries let anyone register a TLD. Many that match well-known organizations were registered early, and most of them sit with a handful of large holders. We talk to them. You can find out, confidentially and for free, whether your names are among them.
Often the same holder. One conversation covers all three.
What a trademark TLD is
An onchain TLD whose string matches a registered trademark or an organization's name. It is a fact of the market, recorded publicly on the registry. What it means for your rights is a question for your counsel. What it means in practice is a question we can answer.
- It sits on an onchain registry such as Freename, outside the ICANN DNS
- It is held in a wallet, with no renewal and no expiry
- Its holder can put names under it: pay, support, wallet, agent names
- It resolves in compatible wallets and browsers, and that coverage grows
- Traditional domain and trademark watch services do not cover it

- We may act for the holder of a name you send. If so, we tell you before any conversation
- Nothing moves without your instruction
- Not legal advice. Your counsel stays in charge of the legal questions
Questions about trademark TLDs
Is the Trademark Name Check really free?
Yes. It is how most legal teams start with us. If you decide to act afterwards, that engagement is quoted privately.
Do you publish lists of trademark TLDs?
Never. We do not publish TLDs, holders or organizations, and the names you send us stay confidential.
What if a name we send is for sale through you?
We tell you so before any conversation: the name is on our books and we sit on the selling side. The seller is not named. You then decide whether you want to talk.
Is a trademark TLD a legal matter?
That is a question for your counsel. We do not give legal advice. We give you the record, the options and a quiet way to act on the one you choose.
Which registries do you check?
The onchain registries relevant to your names, starting with Freename. We tell you in the reply what was covered.
Can we recover several names in one negotiation?
Often, yes. Trademark TLDs are concentrated, so the group name, brands and products frequently sit with the same holder.
