About .kindle domain
.kindle is a brand gTLD (generic Top-Level Domain) operated by Amazon through its designated backend registry services provider, Neustar. It was delegated by ICANN in 2016 as part of the New gTLD Program. This TLD is a closed, single-registrant brand extension, meaning its primary function is to serve the brand identity and digital strategy of its applicant and owner, Amazon. It is not a product for public registration in the traditional sense.
Who can register .kindle domain
Registration of .kindle domain names is restricted solely to Amazon and its designated affiliates. The TLD is a single-registrant, single-user brand TLD. There is no public registration process, and no third-party entities or individuals are eligible to register domains under this extension. All domains are allocated for the exclusive use of Amazon's internal projects, marketing, and services related to the Kindle brand.
How to register .kindle domain
This TLD is not allocated through commercial registrars. Domains under .kindle are delegated exclusively to Amazon, the brand owner and registry operator. The allocation process is an internal corporate decision, managed by Amazon's domain governance team in coordination with its registry services provider. Requests for new .kindle domains are submitted and approved within Amazon's own infrastructure, and the resulting domains are configured for the company's exclusive use.

By using this dedicated brand TLD, Amazon aims to create a secure, branded, and cohesive online ecosystem that reinforces customer trust and brand recognition for its Kindle platform, distinguishing it from generic or third-party domains.
