What is a .golf domain?
.golf is a generic top-level domain for the game of golf, open to anyone and managed by Binky Moon, LLC under Identity Digital. IANA records its delegation to Lone Falls, LLC on 18 March 2015, live in the root from 24 March 2015. Management passed to Binky Moon in March 2018.
The registry's stated market is broad: golf organisations, courses, equipment makers, golf travel and events, players and spectators. In India that covers a small, high-spending audience, and that is why the extension is priced accordingly.

Who buys a .golf domain in India?
.golf buyers in India are courses, coaches, golf-tour operators and equipment retailers serving players in the NCR, Bengaluru, Kolkata, Pune and hill-station clubs. Because members often pay large annual fees, a polished site with tee-time booking or lesson scheduling is an expected service, not a luxury.

|---|---|---|
| Golf course or club | yourclub.golf | Tee-time booking, membership, tournament calendar |
| Golf coach | coachname.golf | Lesson packages and swing-analysis bookings |
| Driving range or simulator bar | citysimulator.golf | Bay booking and corporate events |
| Golf travel operator | keralagolftours.golf | Packages combining resorts and courses |
| Equipment fitter or shop | clubfitting.golf | Brands stocked, fitting appointments |

Does a .golf domain need club membership or a sports licence?
No. The .golf registry asks for no club membership, federation affiliation or business licence, so a coach, a fan blog and a resort can all register. Only accurate contact details and a reachable registrant email are mandatory.
- Who: individuals, clubs registered as societies, companies and resorts.
- Brand clearance: the registry does not check trademarks, so search before naming a course after an established brand.
- Term: 1–10 years. Multi-year terms suit clubs with board-approved budgets.
- GST invoice: issued in INR, with the club or company GSTIN if supplied.
.golf or .club, .in and .com: deciding for a course or academy
Use .golf when golf is the whole business and the exact name matters; use .club or .in when cost matters more than the sport in the address. Over three years a .club name costs ₹25,310 less than .golf. Search ranking is unaffected by the extension choice.
Many Indian clubs already run an older .in or .com site. A .golf name can sit in front of it as a short booking address, for example book.yourclub.golf, while the main site keeps its search history. Golf-travel firms comparing endings for tour packages should also read about .tours domains.
Running a booking site on .golf
Tee-time and lesson bookings need a stable host, SSL and reliable email confirmations. A WordPress club site with a booking plugin runs on WordPress hosting. A larger system with member logins fits a cloud VPS, and confirmations from bookings@yourclub.golf go through business email. The renewal guide explains grace periods for expired names.
Frequently asked questions
Which registry is behind .golf?
Binky Moon, LLC, an Identity Digital company, is the manager IANA lists today. The extension was originally delegated to Lone Falls, LLC in March 2015 and moved to Binky Moon in the March 2018 bulk transfer.
Why does .golf renew at ₹11,374 when year one is ₹9,471?
The registry's wholesale renewal price is higher than its first-year price, and WebJi® shows both rather than only the first year. For a club planning five years, the budget is ₹54,967 before 18% GST: ₹9,471 plus four renewals at ₹11,374.
Can a golf resort use .golf for room bookings as well?
Yes. Registry rules do not limit content, so a resort can sell rooms, golf packages and events from one .golf site. If rooms bring in most of the revenue, a hospitality brand on .com or .in may serve better, with .golf pointing to the golf section.
Is a short name like delhi.golf available at the standard price?
City names and short golf terms are often registry premiums, priced well above ₹9,471 and renewing at the premium rate. Search the exact name. The result shows whether it is standard, premium or already taken before you commit.
Does .golf support DNSSEC?
Yes. IANA lists a DS record for .golf, so the zone is signed. Once your DNS host signs your domain, add its DS record through the registrar to complete the chain of trust.
