.staples
generic
The .staples top-level domain is a brand TLD operated by Staples, Inc., the office supply retail company. It is exclusively used for Staples' own corporate websites and online services. As a branded domain, registration is restricted to Staples, Inc. and its authorized affiliates. This helps the company maintain tight control over its online identity and security. The domain was delegated to Staples in July 2016, with the registry handled by GoDaddy Registry. While .staples is not available for public registration, it serves as a recognizable and trustworthy namespace for the company's digital presence. The TLD is a modern alternative to subdomains or subdirectories on the traditional staples.com.
Eligibility and restrictions
Only Staples, Inc. and its affiliates are eligible to register domains.
