Can anyone run a finance site on .money, or are SEBI and RBI rules involved?
Anyone can register .money — the registry checks no licence — but what you publish or sell on it is governed by Indian financial regulators. The domain gives no authority to advise, lend or deal in foreign exchange.
- Investment advice for a fee: requires SEBI registration as an investment adviser; show the registration number.
- Mutual-fund distribution: display your AMFI registration number (ARN) and standard risk disclaimers.
- Lending or forex: both are regulated activities; name the licensed entity behind the site, such as an RBI-regulated NBFC or an authorised money changer.
- Education content: label it as education, not advice, and avoid promising returns.
.money or .in — which earns more trust for a finance brand?
For a regulated firm, a .in or .com main site with .money as a short campaign address is usually the safer combination; for education content, .money can be the main site. Finance is a frequent phishing target, so whichever ending you choose, publish DMARC and use DNSSEC. Search engines apply no bonus or penalty for the ending.
Hosting and securing a .money site
Client logins and KYC uploads need HTTPS, sensible data handling and email that cannot be spoofed. Our page on hosting for fintech and BFSI covers data-handling expectations, an OV SSL certificate shows the verified company behind the site, and client mail runs on business email. Moving an existing name follows domain transfer.
Frequently asked questions
Who runs the .money registry?
Binky Moon, LLC, operating through Identity Digital Inc. in Bellevue, Washington. IANA records the original delegation to Outer McCook, LLC in November 2014 and the 2018 transfer to Binky Moon, which also runs .finance, .tax and .credit.
Is .money cheaper than .finance?
Yes. On WebJi®'s list .money renews at ₹4,846 a year before 18% GST, against ₹11,374 for .finance. The two read differently: .money is consumer and everyday, .finance is institutional.
Can a finance YouTuber use a .money domain?
Yes; there is no registry restriction. If the content recommends specific securities for payment, SEBI's investment-adviser rules may apply, so keep a clear disclaimer and separate education from paid advice.
What should a firm budget for .money over five years?
About ₹23,946 before 18% GST as a planning figure: ₹4,562 for the first year plus four yearly renewals at today's ₹4,846 (₹19,384). Checkout confirms the actual charge.
Is .money DNSSEC-signed?
