Is .soccer the right word for your club's audience?
.soccer and .football are twin extensions at the same price — the choice is geography, because "soccer" is simply what the United States, Canada and Australia call football. An Indian club whose supporters are in Kochi or Kolkata reaches them with either word, but an academy recruiting diaspora players, or a kit exporter selling into North America, speaks its customers' language with .soccer.
The zone itself is managed by Binky Moon, LLC — an Identity Digital registry that also runs .football, .team and .coach — so the mechanics, abuse policy and renewal behaviour are identical across the family. Where the two endings differ is only the word on the right-hand side of the dot.
.soccer registry facts
IANA's root zone record lists .soccer as an open, unrestricted generic top-level domain, live since 13 May 2015. It carries a signed, DNSSEC-secure delegation, accepts 2–63 character labels, and registers for 1 to 10 years like every gTLD of its generation.

Football India: clubs and businesses that carry a .soccer name
Indian football's grassroots economy — academies, district leagues, five-a-side turfs, fan media and kit trade — is exactly the buyer set the registry names: clubs, coaches, camps, equipment sellers and fan communities. The word "soccer" adds value when any part of that audience sits abroad or consumes North American content.
| Club or business | Example name | The audience it speaks to |
|---|---|---|
| Youth academy with diaspora recruits | propath.soccer | Parents in the US and Canada comparing programmes |
| District or corporate league | kochileague.soccer | Fixtures, tables and registration in one address |
| Five-a-side turf operator | turf5.soccer | Slot booking for metro players, day or night |
| Kit and boot exporter | kitexport.soccer | North American wholesale buyers searching "soccer gear" |
| Match-analysis or fan channel | matchdayindia.soccer | Viewers raised on international soccer broadcasts |
| Licensed coach building a brand | gaffer.soccer | Clients who follow European and MLS coaching content |
A purely local club with no overseas angle loses nothing by taking .football instead — the difference is vocabulary, not capability.

Restrictions: what a .soccer registration asks of you
Nothing beyond standard gTLD conduct — no club affiliation, licence or nationality is checked, and the first completed order for an available name wins. The registry's expectations are the ordinary ones: working contact details and use within its acceptable-use policy.
- Documents: none; GSTIN optional for the invoice.
- Entities: individuals, clubs as societies or companies, academies, leagues — equal terms.
- Email: keep the registrant mailbox alive; verification and renewal notices arrive there.
- Premiums: priced by the registry per name, shown before checkout.
Ordering is the one-screen flow described on the registration hub — search in the box on this page, choose your term, pay in INR.
Deciding between .soccer and .football for an Indian club
Ask one question: where do the readers of the address live? Domestic audiences in the football heartlands — Kerala, Goa, West Bengal, the North-East — and most of Europe say football; North American and Australian audiences say soccer. Neither ending is rewarded by search engines on its own.
- Supporters in India or Europe: .football, same registry, same price.
- Diaspora, US clients, MLS-style branding: .soccer.
- Both audiences matter: register one and redirect the other — at ₹2,861 each it is cheaper than rebranding later.
- The club is one of many sports: .team avoids choosing a single sport.
After the whistle: hosting, mail and renewals
Once registered, a .soccer name resolves with any host within a few hours. Club and league sites with fixtures pages sit well on shared hosting from ₹299 a month, committee and enquiry mail on business email; the renewal guide explains grace and redemption windows, and domain transfer covers moving an existing name to WebJi®.
Frequently asked questions
Why does .soccer cost the same as .football?
Both zones are run by Binky Moon, an Identity Digital registry, under the same rate card: ₹2,861 registration and ₹2,977 renewal each at WebJi® (read 4 November 2026). The twins exist for the two world spellings of one sport.
When was .soccer launched?
IANA delegated .soccer to the root on 13 May 2015; the delegation report to the original manager Foggy Shadow, LLC is dated 11 May 2015. The zone has carried a DNSSEC-secure delegation since delegation.
Can a Kerala or Bengaluru football academy use .soccer?
Yes, and many do — the zone is unrestricted. The word earns its place if the academy recruits or publishes for audiences abroad; for a purely local academy, .football at the same price reads more naturally to Indian supporters.
What does a three-year .soccer plan cost?
₹8,815 before 18% GST at listed rates — ₹2,861 for the first year and two renewals at ₹2,977. It is a planning scenario, not a prepaid total; the invoice each year covers that year alone.
Does .soccer help a club rank on Google in India?
No extension is a ranking signal in itself. What .soccer offers is a self-describing name — useful on hoardings, jerseys and Instagram bios — while rankings follow the site's content, speed and links like any other domain.
