.bestbuy domain extension

The .bestbuy domain is a branded generic top-level domain (gTLD) operated exclusively by BBY Solutions, Inc., the parent company of the Best Buy retail chain. It is a so called dotBrand TLD, meaning it is reserved for official use by the company and its affiliates. Unlike open TLDs, .bestbuy is not available for general public registration. The registry services are provided through a back end agreement with Afilias, and the administrative contact is handled via Markmonitor. The domain was delegated on July 15, 2016, following ICANN's new gTLD program. Its WHOIS server is whois.nic.bestbuy. If you see a .bestbuy address, it is operated directly by or on behalf of Best Buy and can be considered an official company web property.
