Club Domain Registration — What You Get
.club is a sponsored generic top-level domain introduced in 2014 and run by the DotClub registry, and its grammar is membership: whatever sits before the dot reads as the group. Nothing about .club ties the name to a country, a trade or an industry, so a Chennai cycling club and a Delhi alumni chapter can both use it.
Names run 1 to 63 characters, IDN labels are accepted, and DNSSEC is supported. Because the extension is open, the name you want may already be taken, and the registry also holds premium labels priced above the standard rate, so check the exact name before you build a brand on it.
Who Can Register a .club Domain Name
Anyone can register a .club name: a registered society, a company, a fan group or one person, with no residency requirement, no technical requirement and no supporting documents. There is no Indian eligibility test, and a club that is not yet registered as a legal entity can still hold the domain.
- Allowed characters: letters a–z, digits 0–9 and hyphens; a hyphen cannot start or end the name.
- IDN labels: accepted, but a single name cannot mix scripts such as Latin and Devanagari.
- Contact data: the registrant name, address, email and phone reach the registry and appear in WHOIS unless privacy is applied.
- One holder per name: the first completed order wins, and a name is not reserved while a committee debates it.
What a .club Domain Is Used For
A .club address fits membership and community sites: local clubs and societies, sports teams, alumni groups, hobby and fan communities, gyms, and loyalty or subscription programs. It also works for a paid community where the domain has to say "join us" before anyone reads a word.
The word club is spelled the same in most languages, so the extension survives translation better than an English idiom would. Indian clubs use it for the same reason: the name reads as a group, not as a shop.
Club Domain Registration Plans & Pricing (INR)
WebJi quotes each .club registration and renewal in INR before you pay, and 18% GST is added on the invoice. No fixed .club figure is printed here because premium labels are priced by the registry; the bands below are dated and cover the extensions we sell alongside .club.
| TLD | Registration (₹/yr) | Renewal (₹/yr) | Best for | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| .club | Quoted at checkout | Quoted before renewal | Clubs, communities, memberships | Get .club Quote |
| .com | ₹1,380 | ₹1,480 | Universal default | Register |
| .in | ₹1,000 | ₹1,000 | Indian identity | Register |

.club Renewal, Transfer and Expiry Rules
A .club name renews in blocks of 1 to 10 years, and renewal can be paid at any point in the term. Set auto-renew before the expiry date, because the site and email stop resolving on the expiry day even while the name can still be renewed.
After expiry the registry allows about 40 days of renewal grace, then 30 days of redemption where the registrar charges a recovery fee, then a 5-day pending-delete window before the name returns to the open market. Cancelling a .club name does not refund the registration fee.
To transfer, unlock the name and take its authorisation code from the current registrar, then approve the email sent to the registrant address. A transfer takes 5 to 7 days, adds one year to the term, and a name is locked for 60 days after registration, transfer or an owner change.
.club vs .com and .in for an Indian Club or Community
Use .club when the group is the brand and the name is short, .com when the body is a business that must look neutral, and .in or .co.in when Indian identity is the point. The extension is not a ranking factor, so choose the one members will type correctly from memory.
- .club — open to anyone, 1 to 10 year terms, best for memberships and communities; price quoted at checkout.
- .com — the strongest neutral default, ₹1,380/year.
- .in — NIXI-run country domain, ₹1,000/year; .co.in is its corporate second level.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a .club domain used for?
A .club domain is used for membership and community sites: local clubs, societies, sports teams, alumni groups, fan communities and loyalty or subscription programs. The extension says the site is a group to join, not a shop to buy from.
Can anyone register a .club domain from India?
Yes. .club has no residency requirement, no technical requirement and no document check, so a society, company or individual in India can register one. IDN labels are allowed, but a single name cannot mix scripts.
How long can I register a .club domain for?
From 1 to 10 years in one order, and renewal runs in the same 1 to 10 year blocks. Set auto-renew before expiry, because the site stops resolving on the expiry date.
How much does a .club domain cost at WebJi®?
The .club price is quoted in INR at checkout before you pay, with 18% GST added on the invoice. Premium labels cost more and are priced by the registry; renewal is quoted again at the rate for your name.
How do I transfer a .club domain to WebJi®?
Unlock the name at your current registrar, take its authorisation code, start the transfer and approve the email sent to the registrant address. A transfer takes 5 to 7 days and adds one year to the term.
Does .club support WHOIS privacy and DNSSEC?
.club supports DNSSEC, and WHOIS privacy can be applied through the registrar where its policy allows it. We confirm what is included on your order before you pay.
Is a .club domain good for SEO in India?
The extension is not a ranking factor, so a .club site competes on content, links and speed like any other. Pick it when the word matches the community; pick .in when Indian location is the selling point.
