What is .online?
.online is one of the new generic top-level domains created through ICANN's 2012 new gTLD programme. It is operated by Radix, which runs several descriptive extensions of the same kind.
Who can register it
Registration is open to anyone, anywhere, on a first-come, first-served basis through ICANN-accredited registrars. There is no residency or documentation requirement. Like other new gTLDs, the registry may hold back some names as reserved or premium.
WHOIS, RDAP and privacy
An RDAP service for .online (rdap.radix.host) is published in the IANA RDAP bootstrap file. OrbitProbe reads registration data from it first, as structured JSON: registrar, creation and expiry dates, EPP status codes and nameservers. For gTLDs, personal contact data has been largely redacted from public output since the rules ICANN introduced in 2018 in response to the GDPR. In most lookups you will see redacted fields or the details of a privacy service instead of a registrant name. OrbitProbe only ever shows the organisation name and country.
