Overview
- .juegos is a generic top-level domain (gTLD).
- The label "juegos" is Spanish for "games" (translation provided in registry notes).
- The string was proposed and applied for through ICANN's New gTLD Program.
History
Registry operator and application
- The successful applicant and registry operator for .juegos is Uniregistry, Corp.
- Uniregistry was established by domain investor Frank Schilling; reporting noted Schilling invested in multiple gTLD applications (reported investment: $60 million across 54 gTLD applications).
- Donuts (Goose Gardens, LLC) was a previous applicant for .juegos and submitted a Public Interest Commitment (PIC).
Contract and delegation
- A Registry Agreement for .juegos was signed by ICANN and Uniregistry on 20 March 2014.
- .juegos was delegated to the DNS root zone on 15 May 2014, completing the successful application process.
Usage and Audience
- The registry metadata lists the translation of the string as "games" in Spanish and classifies the string as a generic TLD.
- By literal meaning, the label is linked to gaming-related content in Spanish-language contexts (translation: "games").
Notable Cases or Examples
- In February 2014 Uniregistry and Donuts reportedly reached a private deal resolving contention between the two companies over several gTLD strings. As part of that arrangement, Donuts became the sole applicant for .furniture, .auction, and .gratis, while Uniregistry secured .juegos and .audio.
- The delegation of .juegos on 15 May 2014 is a key milestone marking the string's entry into the root zone.
